Board Optimization - vBMicroStats

This hack will add at the bottom of each vBulletin (powered) page, the statistics listed below.
Also, it will help you troubleshoot and optimize your vBulletin board by viewing or comparing PHP/MySQL options and other statistics that are normally hidden in your forum pages.

Regular Users:
? Load time of specified page in microseconds
? Number of queries executed
? PHP percent page usage
? MySQL percent page usage

Administrators Only:
? Active users browsing the forum (members and guests) new in 1.1.0
? Server memory usage per page (in Kb)
? Display DEBUG mode status
? Browser GZIP library compression status
? Server average loads
? Uncached templates (useful to troubleshoot the code)

The code modifications were tested into a clean installed vBulletin board. They work 100%.
The hack was tested in vBulletin 3.6.4 and 3.6.5.
If you want to test it into a lower version (3.6.x), let me know.
Also, if you encounter any problems, feel free to post your questions here.

Step by step install instructions are posted into readme.html file.
In order to perform an efficient modification of your files, I recommend you to use Komodo Edit or Textpad.
Both editors will allow you to complete all steps without any coding errors.

The code changes are very safe and designed not to interfere in any way with the vBulletin performance/functionality.
Make sure you modify, save and upload one file at the time to your server.
Then, simply run the product-vbmicrostats.xml file.

[high]The PLUGIN itself is DISABLED by default.[/high]
This was done in order to make sure you properly edit your code first and to avoid surprises.
You will need to enable it, once your code modifications are completed:
Plugins and Products > Manage Products > vB Microstats > Enable (dropdown)
Then, go to your vBulletin Options, click on BB MicroStats setting group and set all your options.

Upgrade to version 1.0.2.
Upgrade to version 1.0.3.
Upgrade to version 1.1.0.

Want to be a guinea pig and try this hack into a higher vBulletin version?

I'm getting the same thing, I get the following when I try to import the product:

This product is not compatible with version 3.6.7 of vBulletin. (Compatible starting with 3.6.4 / Incompatible with 3.6.6 and greater)

Seemed like a great idea - anyone know whether it really is incompatible?

it works on my 3.6.7 forum http://www.smsmasters.co.uk/forum/index.php

Open the XML file with notepad or any text editor, and on line 10, change

PHP Code:

<dependency dependencytype="vbulletin" minversion="3.6.4" maxversion="3.6.6" /> 


to

PHP Code:

<dependency dependencytype="vbulletin" minversion="3.6.4" maxversion="3.6.7" />

Sweet - thanks. Strangely I'm running 3.6.7 but when I changed it to 3.6.7 it still complained. I changed it to 3.6.8 and then it imported.

I guess the author just put this in because he wasn't sure what would happen with future versions - but it means he has to update it each time a new VB comes out...

Then you are likley running 3.6.7 PL1 which is the latest version. I did not realize a PL1 release was made but yes as you see setting it to 3.6.8 works fine.

That is most likley correct.

but it means he has to update it each time a new VB comes out...

Yes it does which is much less trouble then having a new vB release come out, only to find that there were tons of changes and this hack will cause major problems on peoples forums. Then he has to spend hours and hours of time trying to help people fix there forum, instead of taking 5 min when a new vB is released to edit the XML file and upload a new zip file.

I love this hack, but I just upgraded to php 5.2.1 and now it's showing 100.00% PHP - 0% MySQL. Any ideas?

EDIT, it's because I'm a jackass!
