vb.org Archive - VB3 MicroStats

There are two Microstats hacks: Teck's and Erwin's. Sites with hacks will usually show uncached templates after installing the Microstats hack. Your question is, therefore, common and the answer can be found by reading through the thread. References I found on Erwins thread are here, here, here, and here.

The last reference is:

Quote:

You need to add those templates at the beginning of the php page that you saw the message on. It will speed up the page and reduce the number of queries to the database which will be good for all of your vb installation.

If you look in the URL for the page you are displaying when those uncached templates appear you'll see the php file within the address. Index.php usually deals with forumhome templates. Open the index.php file and find:

Code:

// pre-cache templates used by all actions

$globaltemplates = array(

        'FORUMHOME',

        'forumhome_event',

        'forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost',

        'forumhome_forumbit_level1_post',

        'forumhome_forumbit_level2_nopost',

        'forumhome_forumbit_level2_post',

        'forumhome_lastpostby',

        'forumhome_loggedinuser',

        'forumhome_moderator',

        'forumhome_pmloggedin',

        'forumhome_subforumbit_nopost',

        'forumhome_subforumbit_post',

        'forumhome_subforumseparator_nopost',

        'forumhome_subforumseparator_post'

Add your templates to this list. Alternatively, I use the global.php file which is used for every page loaded. There, you'll find:

Code:

// templates to be included in every single page...

$globaltemplates = array_merge($globaltemplates, array(

        // the really important ones

        'header',

        'footer',

        'headinclude',

        'phpinclude_start',

        'phpinclude_end',

        // new private message script

        'pm_popup_script',

        // navbar construction

        'navbar',

        'navbar_link',

        // forumjump and go button

        'forumjump',

        'gobutton',

        'option',

        // multi-page navigation

        'pagenav',

        'pagenav_curpage',

        'pagenav_pagelink',

        'threadbit_pagelink',

        // misc useful

        'spacer_open',

        'spacer_close',

        'username_loggedout',

        'username_loggedin',

        'timezone',

        'STANDARD_ERROR',

        'STANDARD_REDIRECT'

        //'board_inactive_warning'

));

Add your templates to that list and it should also cache them. No need to add your templates to both files. Choose one or the other.
