Thanks, ya this is a really tough hack to perfect due to the regexp involved, ive already spent many hours on it.

I know this may be difficult for you, but it would really help me fix this problem. If you could install the hack again and run it; if the problem happens again save that file and rename to .txt and upload it as an attachment here; and also attach your backup copy of the same file that way I can do a Text Diff on it to see whats actually being changed.

I really want to get problems like these solved as this hack has a lot of potential to make the Vbulletin Plugin System Good; ive done lots of test on my own and other forums and while very rare.. problems like yours has occured; so hopefully I can fix it for you.

I wouldn't know what to look for when you say weird HTML in the source, but no I'm not getting any errors of any sort :)

Click , it works just fine when placed under navbar just no where else :surprised:

Turn the compression hack off, "Uncompress Templates", so I can actually read the HTML.. lol

Then place it under the forums I believe you said; see what we have then..

Hmm the shoutbox appears.. im not registered though, i imagine it gives you someway to input text.

Okay, I uncompressed and put shoutbox at the bottom, now it's showing :)

So maybe it's the template compressor's fault not the plugin accel :squareeyed:

Well, I'm just confused now

So let me get this straight, it works fine as long as its uncompressed? But when you compress it, it only works at the top?

Ya this is a template compressor problem -_-, lets go back over there.

lol. got your hands full with releasing these 2 at once...

I did the reinstall as requested and recieved the same errors again.. This time I only replaced functions.php with the original and everything is loading so far..

I will zip and PM you a link to those files requested as someone would throw a fit if I posted original vb code here :(

Really? I dont see why, you have to be licensed to download an attachment anyway I believe.

But either works, thanks.

dear coder...

when we can accept final version will be relase...
i trust this & Compress Forum Templates
together will be a grate things..

thnx

Update

Critical Bug Fix, dealing with code with double backslashes \\ creating parse errors, it was kicking my butt determining the source of the error, but its now fixed; thats gonna solve a LOT of problems for anyone that had trouble in the past.

If you have installed this hack in the past, download the new Release Immediately, just replace the class_plugin_accelerator.php with the new one.

Thank You Trigunflame

This is the biggest Vb optimization for 3.5.x branch! No problems so far...

Combined with template compressor it's accelerated around 15-30% (on reply's and searches more, on showthread, index less but still visible...)
Now with over 500 concurrent users our board actually stays usable...it means you can download a page in less than a minute :nervous: .

Thank You once again... :)

Hopefully that fix last night weeded out any further problems we might have.

Thnx Man....:)

not sure its working as surely as you are mate, i installed it as per instructions, changed all perms on every file listed in the hooks file.....and enabled it.

first i was presented with a parse error, with Tstrings and whitespace errors all over the place, then when i disabled, and re enabled, the board came on, but the forumhome looked like it had been ravaged by feature eating animals....ie.....nothing was wrrking as it should....lol

Which plugins do you have installed; the files that reported the parse errors can you keep 2 copies, 1 after its been modified (and has the problems, just rename it and place it elsewhere and the original file along with it. You could zip both of these up and upload them somewhere; just PM me with the info.

After I exam the files that are corrupted I will make the appropriate fixes to the hack.

Thanks for the report.

Ps. Did the problem occur after enabling, build all hooks, or build all plugins

i have absolutely LOADS of stuff installed...probably too much to be honest....

the fiel that reported the parse error, strangely was global .php in the root....which to my knowledge isnt altered with your hack....

also, it gave the error on line 1135, which is weird, as my global.php in the root only has 700 odd lines....lol

the problem occurs after enabling the hack, when ive clicked on "build all hooks"....

the board still shows, but with everything missing on forumhome from all my installed hacks..the tables are all still there, but no content....

then, when i click "build all plugins".....i get the weird parse error in the root/global.php.

weird

ive uninstalled it for now

build_hooks.php lists all files to be modified and global.php is one of them. Please create a zip file containing the modified global.php after you "rebuild all plugins" as well as your backed up version of global.php and send me a link to it via private message.

Thanks.

Worked well, other than it stopped Dean C's URL re-write mod from working when active, so i've had to disable it for now. Also had to disable the template compressor for the same reason (both affect the url re-write independantly of each other).

Looks interesting, Thanks!

/me clicks install.

after installing, enabling and rebuilding as per instructions. my forumdisplay page is empty. no error, no complaints, just an empty page.

Again as I said to the other person, plz make copies of the affected files along with their backed up version, zip, and upload for me to review.

Thankyou.

Thankyou.

Just installed it and I'm quite happy with this but one plugin does not work.

It seems your code does strip one slash that shouldn't be stripped...

I uploaded you two files with the old plugin code and the code that was produced by your script.
It loses the slash in front of the $varname I guess...

That doesnt help much bro, when you attach as txt files slashes are added; put them in a zip file and use a free filehosting service to upload. Thanks :)

Update:

Fixed another problem with backslashes, hopefully this will fix some other problems.
To upgrade, just replace the includes/class_plugin_accelerator.php with the new one.

how is that mod going?

Feel free to try it.

I keep getting this even after I changed it to 777

i wasnt intending on being difficult. sorry about that. anyway, seems there is no need to now since the update seems to have resolved the forumdisplay issue i was having. thanks.

There is a "list" of filenames inside includes/hook_files.php that you have to change the permissions on.

Generally chmod all the files in your primary forum directory to 777, then chmod pretty much all of the files inside your forums includes directory (Do Not Chmod your Config File, leave it 755 or whatever it may be).

You werent being difficult, I was just trying to get everyones problems fixed asap. :)
Glad its working.

:)
Good...really good...things update means more smootness & faster performance for forum :)

Thnx

I don't understand why backslashes are added when you downloading a plain txt file (maybe wrong browser? ;)) - with mine the files look just like they should.
But never mind your latest update did solve this problem for me...

hello after updating this hack i've got an error..

:(.. Currently i'm disabled the hack..

Cant fix it if you dont provide the affected files.

after install this plugin accelerator and this https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=107615
2 things dont work in my forum :
1.who was online last 24 .
2.who is on chat roon .

any ideas?

Please note that distributing vBulletin files violates the license agreement.

vBulletin.org therefore cannot allow such actions, and the license(es) in question might get revoked.

I'm not going to argue you with you, but I dont agree :)

From my standpoint, its no different than him giving me access to his server and I get the files myself and perform the diffs that I need to see the problems.

Those problems have to do with the Template Compressor, please read my first post in that thread.

You probably need to add forumhome to your ignored template settings for the compressor.

so how is this going? is it safe to use? any HUGE bugs?

thank you that work for me .
