Plugin Time limit
 

How can i increse the plugin time limit ...??

What do you mean?

I was installing the VBTT 3 PHP torrent tracker .. when i upload the product.

it's giving me the following error -

So that's why i asked .. how to increase the maximum time limit of plugin execution from 30 seconds to higher

That's a PHP configuration setting, not a vBulletin one. You should find and edit your PHP configuration (php.ini). You will not be able to do this if you are on a shared server.

Also, anything script that takes longer than 30 seconds (except uploads) is a serious problem. It's usually caused by inefficient coding.

it snot a matter of inefficient coding but they are trying to generate mass amounts of passkeys for use with the tracker. Is just an issue of too many users to generate all those keys in 30 sec

on some sites i've installed to it takes upwards of 5 min to generate 32 char random passkeys for 10,000+ members

They could do this in a paged format after installation to prevent this from happening. Just like update counters works in the standard vBulletin. Would simply be more coding for the hack author though.

yeah more coding for me so i didnt do it, but it looks like i will have to.
