Author: filburt1
Description: Displays the total number of characters in all the posts in your forum.
Demo: None yet
Screenshot: http://www.vbulletintemplates.com/mods/attachment.php?s=&postid=17068

This adds one query to forumhome. What's more the query is pretty server-intensive, so if you have a large board (I'm guessing more than 75,000 posts) I don't recommend that you use this mod.

I get my ideas usually by just browsing vB's eerie spooky database with a flashlight and a sidearm and just getting ideas :)

Putting it in the postbit would require hacking though :)

I don't think this is practical for a forumhome mod, but it could be good on a statistics page (with average chars per post, etc).

Good work!

I love all the mods everyone has, but with a large vb base I noticed getting to many things in the phpinculde template bogs my site. Loo's Top stats I had to remove just a little ago. Once I removed it bam my site speed was back up.

My site has:
