I would like to know how many members use select themes (styles). This is something phpBB has by default & I'm surprised vBulletin does not.

The general idea is you'll have a good idea on which themes (styles) are used more (liked), compared to the themes (styles) no one uses.

I recently spent close to an hour, updating a theme (style) that it turns out... No one liked or used. Had a counter been in place, which told me no one was using it... I could have just deleted it and be done.

I check my database from time to time, in the user table is a styleid field... You can see how many people are using each style (more or less) this way.

I say more or less because sometimes vBulletin seems to store the styleid in a cookie not the database, I don't know the rhyme or reason to it.

There has to be a better way, then going through the database. :(
