1) You were not clear on the inclusion via the tempate file.
In the instructions it could be considered vague I suppose, though quite a few people managed to do it without all the trouble you seemed to have faced. However I fail to see how you could have missed the SECOND POST IN THIS THREAD which mentions trouble areas that have been covered. I have answered this same question about 20 times in the thread from people who also couldnt be bothered to pay attention.
2) The instructions are incomplete.
There are no instructions. This hack installs itself. The hacks are optional. This is stated in the Install.TXT I will try to be more clear (IE spell everything out) in the next version. I thought having a hack that for the most part installs itself would be enough. Apparently not.
3) I have found errors with the html
You will find quite a few, I didnt notice you pointing them out so I cant really tell you how to fix them.
4) The instructions are not compatable with any 2.2.1 within the installer and needs to be updated or the hack removed.
There are still hacks here from pre 2.x and you want to remove mine because you cant be bothered to look through the thread for the 2.2.1 fixes? You really dont like it much do you?
5) Putting your name and site on the bottom of the hack is not what I installed this hack for and it WILL be removed whether you like it or not.
I also mentioned inside the file I DONT CARE if you remove my name, I realize some will, thats fine. What you are prohibited from doing is removing any of the names FROM THE CODE, as that is the credits, and it doesnt show on your site so where is the problem?
6) I don't see where I can add multiple sites to ignore from the admin CP. Only one it appears which will not work for me. I need to exclude many sites from the collection of data. If this is possible, super. If not, another peave.
Just keep putting them in. They will all take, someone with extensive hack experiance may have been able to take a look at the table to check if they are taking or not, but your right, I should have wasted more of my time to spell this out to you as well for my free project that you've done not a thing but complain about. I would also like to apologise from the bottom of my heart for not being a "Top Notch Hacker" like FireFly and Tubedogg (as you will also note in the instructions you didnt bother reading) I will now go and meditate on how I can better make this hack without dissappointing you. I will dedicate the rest of my days to making vbstats v.IhopeHooperlikesthisone
This is YET ANOTHER thing that has been mentioned in this thread. Something you should have maybe at least taken a quick glance through before giving your opinion. Others have done so with far more tact than you.
I have several hacks installed. My opinion is the hack needs much work and inclusions via the phpinclude template is something I frown on. To many inclusions already.
How do you expect the file to count hits without running the queries? Maybe you can set me straight on this?
You are right that the hack needs work. You are welcome to work on it. Or you could try bothering one of the "Top Notch" hackers for it. Orrrr you can wait for me to update. Orrrrrrr you can just uninstall (I can send you instructions on how to do so if you like) it and not come back to the thread as you said.
I do not reccomend installing this hack until it has been cleaned up and updated.
Thats sweet, I'll put you're opinion in future versions instructions, I doubt you'll notice, since you dont read them anyway.
