You can turn on/off individual stats, count data from last x days for some of them if you wish, trim titles/usernames to save page space, make several other functionality/make-up customizations... See screenshots.

You can have Main Stats box shown on several pages...
It's shown by default on forumhome (to disable it set "Main Top Stats box on ForumHome" to "None")
To activate another location:
a) add THIS_SCRIPT name to "Stats on pages" field in product options
b) add template name to "Stats in templates" field in product options
c) add "{vb:raw vsatopstats}" to the template you added Stats to


Notes:
-To set options go to: vBulletin Options > VSa - Advanced Forum Statistics
-"Top Thanked" requires Abe1's "Post Thanks" or Scandal's "Thumbs Up?" products to work
-"Latest Donations" requires "VSa - PayPal Donate" hack to work
-To move Top Stats box somewhere else on forumhome: 1.-Set placement setting to "None" 2.-Add "index" to "Stats on pages" setting 3.-Add "FORUMHOME" to "Stats in templates" setting 4.-Add "{vb:raw vsatopstats}" wherever you wish in FORUMHOME template.
-If Top Stats box is messed up because of long usernames or thread/forum titles be noted that you can trim them in ACP options.
-When forum/thread titles or usernames are trimmed, mouse-over will show you full version.

The AJAX auto refresh feature is hitting my server hard...



Any ideas? It's on an Xeon 5520, and we only have 300 guests on usually, most of them not even viewing the index. Without auto refresh load is around 0.50.

The refresh interval is set at 120 as well, hardly high. If it matters we are using nginx and PHP 5.3.

What's interesting is that if I restart PHP, the load goes back to normal for about a couple hours or so.

EDIT: well I fixed it, sort of. using nginx to cache the AJAX requests to misc.php in static files. load is back to normal, but this technique requires a bit of script modification and nginx know-how. if anyone is faced with the same issue and interested in knowing how I did it, just let me know.

Admincp >> Settings >> Options >> VSa - Advanced Forum Statistics


Usergroups can't view stats (List IDs, separate with commas)

Enter user ID of unregistered not logged in, usually ID 1.

Can anyone tell me how I change the vsa topstats header arrowed in picture to match the rest of my forum colour which you see is blue.

Fails with 4.0.5 for me. Otherwise i always liked it .

[DDIG]

1) Some Safari issues with collapsing box and View More.
2) Time and Date formatting issue. If I have settings *) for Dutch right, English display is all mangled, if I have settings for English then displaying Dutch is totally wrong.

*) I mean settings in AdminCP -> VSa... -> Visual Settings -> Date Format and Time Format.

Otherwise great product.

One more thing (sorry) - instead of usergroups Can't view stats it is better to have usergroups CAN view stats in AdminCP.

Reason being that Primary groups may have rights e.g. Mods, Admins), whereas secundary groups may not have rights (Extra upload space, etc). If I put any user in Primary group for Mods with some additional rights in secundary group, I have to give the secundairy group stats-right also. And since secondary group are additional rights that I also give to 'normal' users, I'm not able to get this right...

With a CAN view setting, overriding all CAN't view settings this can be accomplished as it should be in my opinion.

We've just uploaded to vb 4.0.6 but we seem to have a problem with this mod when it is viewed in Monzilla Firefox.



Any suggestions?

[Valter]

TableTennisTalk? It works fine for me there.

And you are marked as "Not Downloaded" in this thread?

[Fanny Annie]

Wasn't me that downloaded it. I disabled the mod and the problem went away.

Is there nothing you can suggest?
