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.

my board is the same - vb3.7.2

I installed another microstats hack (3.5 version) and it shows server loads fine - so it must be a function within this code

working fine on 3.7.3 you just need to be carefull on the class_core.php edits the two functions are not the same ...

I have tried every which way I can to get this bunch of words to spread out evenly across the table horizontally like this:
Contact Us - The Rolex Forums - Admin - Mod - Archive - Top
Instead it looks like this:

Any help would be much appreciated

<table cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="$stylevar[outertablewidth]" class="tfoot" align="center">
<if condition="$show['microstats']"><!-- {microstats} --><align="center">
</if>
<tr>
<if condition="$show['quickchooser']">
<td class="tfoot">
<select name="styleid" onchange="switch_id(this, 'style')">
<optgroup label="$vbphrase[quick_style_chooser]">
$quickchooserbits
</optgroup>
</select>
</td>
</if>
<td class="tfoot" align="$stylevar[right]" width="100%">
<div class="smallfont">
<strong>

hi,

what is this code

<align="center">

doing there right after {MICROSTATS} it doesn't belong there and that's most likely the cause of your problem remove it

[VK3MTR]

I removed the <align="center"> after microstats and the result is the same, I still get all these words bunched up along the right hand side of the table.

O it has to be something else.

I just upgraded my vb to 3.7.3 PL1 and reinstalled this modification and now it shows this:

Page generated in 0.5590 seconds (-218,857,625,522.77% PHP - 218,857,625,622.77% MySQL) with 30 queries

What went wrong?

[AiRDawG]

Works flawlessly on 3.7.3..... Great hack!
