Description:
I am always amazed to see how very linearly my forum grows. I believe that most online forum show such a linear growth pattern. If you like this product, let me know the url of your stats page. I would love to see the growth of other forums. :-)
This small addon uses the Google Visualization API to show some basic statistics of your vbulletin forum.
The total number of posts, threads and members is queried daily with a scheduled task.
Installation is straight-forward and does not include any template edits.
