Believe me - it does.

I did basically the same thing quite some momths ago (I also did a slight modification to class_core.php to allow caching phrases for guests) - our DB bandwidth dropped from approx 30 MBit to 5-6 MBit.

Jim_O - If vB Optimise is successfully calling the templates from cache, I don't see why XCache is saying the variables are blank, unless it has a problem displaying them? (They do have characters which could break certain syntax).

Either way, if the templates are being called from cache, then they are most certainly in cache :)

shlomot - I've not been able to replicate on vB 3.8, what vB version are you running?

NolF - Nice suggestion, I'll see what I can do as vBlog will certainly have hook locations I can plug into :)

Hey Deceptor i was just wondering when you have the next release planned?

Probably sometime today, early tomorrow, I had to drop vBSEO optimise because they have no hooks in their code unfortunately, would of meant file editing, and a lot of it.

So I'll be working on some more default vB Optimise and possibly vBlog since I was able to get it due to the donations :)

Dam no vbseo :(

what about photoplog pro or vbclassifieds?

ps. i made the biggest donation :)

From what I was able to see of those I couldn't see any hook locations either really, without those it makes integration impossible without manual file edits, and I don't want this modification to turn into a gaint install, which it would with file edits I'm afraid.

Doh i was really looking forward to the photoplog pro bits

would of made my site so much faster

(what about if i pay u todo this addon just for my site)

I'm afraid I wouldn't have the time right now unfortunately.

What about photopost pro does that have hooks? because i will swap over to that

i need a super fast gallery :)

Latest version of vbClassifieds (1.3.1) has 21 hooks defined. I don't know if I can provide you with the hook names or if you need some more information, but seems that vbClassifieds would be a serious candidate to be optimised considering that it executes 21 queries in its home page.

Sweet Deceptor can you take another look when your back? thanks :)

Hello,

is you set "xcache.admin.enable_auth = Off" than the Xcache's Admin page (/xadmin), will work always or not?
Is it only a way to use the flush option in VbOptimize, right?

Thank you

@ logicuk
there seem to be 52 hooks in PhotoPost vBGallery v2.4.3 :O

Does someone knows what may cause this ?

Fatal error: Call to undefined method vb_activecache::flush() in /home/.dearths/www/mywebsite.com/forum/includes/adminfunctions_template.php(946) : eval()'d code on line 4

Im talking about the paid addons, photopost pro and/or photoplog pro

not the free script PhotoPost vBGallery.

Hello Deceptor, according to you, in vB Optimise Settings, Which tra these settings is really important to improve speed? And for reduce bandiwith, load?

• vB Optimise: Cache Templates
• B Optimise: Cache Styles
• vB Optimise: Cache Phrases
• vB Optimise: Cache Forumhome WOL
• vB Optimise: Custom Datastore Cache

Can you explain this? So, I can made some test and study more accurately the results

Thank you

Enable all those mate and your forum will be super fast :)

Ok found a problem...

Installed, disabled in ACP options, left enabled in plugin manager section

Would not allow me to install another plugin (i.e. Blog 2.0)

As soon as I disabled this plugin on the plugin screen Blog installed perfectly.

Hello Logi, I am just afraid because I use vB 3.7.3, not vB 3.8, actually I didn't have any issue but if I wouldn't has mistakes if I enable all...therefore I asked which are the best setting for all :)

I use vb 3.7.2 also and everything works fine :)

@logicuk
photopost pro doesn't seem to have hooks (vGallery is paid as well)
photoplog on the other hand has around 130 :O

Clear the cache before you try and upload anything and you'll be fine ;)

Hey Deceptor

So it seems photoplog pro has around 130 hooks

And vbclassifieds has 21 hooks

Think you can take another look when you get back

Big thanks your best friend logic :)

Hello Deceptor, I have enabled your Mod on my server and forum vBulletin from about...2 hours. Uhm, sincerely therefore I don't see particular improve or benefit..and I would like understand if something don't works well o there are other problems.
I don't have any mistakes, I use also XCache 1.2.2, enabled in config.php, and as settings of vBOptimize I enalbed quite all, I set off olny:

• vB Optimise: Custom Datastore Cache
• vB Optimise: vBAdvanced Integration

All others options are enabled

These are any results..:

Forumhome

* Page Generation 0.12597 seconds
* Memory Usage 4,261KB
* Queries Executed 11 (?)

After

# Page Generation 0.13052 seconds
# Memory Usage 4,405KB
# Queries Executed 11

Edit:
Any times I see my forum without background and other images...they missing suddenly, you can see it in 5 attachments

doraj - Enable debug mode on your forum, then check the debug messages in the bottom drop down menu to see if vB Optimise is successfully pulling from cache, or continually trying to set the cache from the database.

Logicuk - My bad, I will definately take a look again :)

Leo Brazil - What cache method do you have set? The hook there is designed to pull a method from vB Optimise and it seems that method is not being created and reverting back to the default vB Optimise class.

Thanks D, i just sent you another pm also :)

(Deceptor for member of the month and mod of the month!)

Hello Deceptor, I tried to set enable all options and I made some screenshot, it seems works, perhaps only "Custom Datastore Cache" doensn't work well because I already use XCache Datastore in config.php, if fact it shows : No custom Datastore items to work with

Sincerely I hope to improving more the speed and reduce the memory usage, but at the moment the values before and after are more similar...It is normal for you?
I also read other member's statistic, and they has more improve than me.

These are others screens, thank you for your help

doraj - The custom datstore items are for mods usually, sometimes other modifications use init_startup to specify custom datastore items, and these are queried instead of using XCache or any other method specified in your config.php. vB Optimise fixes this however by forcing them to use your custom datastore method.

That said, your screens show vB Optimise is working fine. If you disable vB Optimise, you should see that your queries on your forum pages increase by 2, those 2 being styles and templates. As for memory usage/speed, I'm afraid this isn't designed to reduce memory, and impact is insignificant, as for speed, that depends on your connection to the server really. Also check the Optimal Settings, storing CSS as css files will help with speed :)

But to sum up, it is working, and it is reducing queries :) I'm sorry you can't "feel" the impact of this browsing your forum, but perhaps you could ask any of your members if they notice a difference :)

Happy xmas Deceptor, will there be an update coming today, or we have to wait untill after xmas?

All the best logic

I'll be pushing out a little update that will allow a couple of other queries to be cached around vBulletin, and Merry Christmas :)

sweet, after xmas will we will photoplog pro and vbclass support? ;)

I'll be looking at them yeah, see what can be done if anything :)

This seems to be messing up my email a bit. When I get new member notifications via email when it is turned on it leaves out the name but when turned off it works. Also leaves some other things blank (or puts a _ in place instead) when turned on. See screen shots

The newest email (in bold) was a test registration I did with it off. The one below it is with it on.

The content of the email is from the one with Optimize on.

BamaStangGuy - Thanks for notifying me of the issue, it has been mentioned before and is to be fixed in the next version, if you want a fix for now I suggest turning off Cache Phrases :)

Disabled until fix for importing plugins is addressed/fixed.

Could you elaborate on the importing plugins part hostboard? I've imported many products with vB Optimise enabled and had no issues.

Thanks Deceptor, sorry for not seeing it before posting.

Maybe Hostboard is talking about an issue I have when importing Products or uninstalling products.

When I do this my css doesn't seem to be read and my forumdisplay and showthread pages do not have any css applied to them. I have to flush the cache to get them to come back. I store my CSS in a file if that matters.

Hm, cache should flush automatically, what cache method are you using? :)

I guess that I missed it also as I was about to report it. Not a big deal really as it seems only to affect new user registration notifications. Other emails seem to have the correct format.

Deceptor, thanks for the awesome support that you provide for this product!

Your welcome Jim :) Merry Christmas!
