Do not show who's online for guests
for vbulletin 3.5


Integrated in vbulletin 3.6

What does this product do?

This very easy to use product turns off who's online for guests on forumhome / forumdisplay / showthread and therefore dramaticely improves forum speed if you have lots of guests. Turning off who's online for gaining speed is suggested by eva2000 in vbulletin.com > server configuration forum. My forum was slow having 150 users browsing my forum, now it's running with more than 300 users online.

BTW, what's the difference between this hack and just turning off who's online per usergroup for guests? j/k
1. The setting you mentioned is just for the online.php script (see below)
2. This product here is for selecting the guest view of who's online on forumhome, forumdisplay and showthread

Reported locations do take forum permissions into consideration. For example, if a user in the online list is viewing a forum that the current logged in user doesn't have access to, then online.php will only report that they are viewing a forum and not give the name of the forum.

Who's online must be enabled in your vBulletin options for this permission to have any effect. Additionally, there are several Who's online settings on that page in your vBulletin options.

Hehe I hope you know I was kidding.

Anyway, the hack works great, it surely makes a difference on big boards, one of our boards usually has between 500 and 1000 guests and it's flying now.

Of course, it reduces the (rather big) queries for showing who's online and therefore improves forum speed.
