Microstats - load times, server loads, queries, uncached templates

This is a derivative of Erwin's microstats hack for vBulletin 3.5.0's plugin system. The main difference is that by default it shows the page generation time and query count to the public. Server loads and Uncached Queries are shown only to administrators.

I had sent this to Erwin so he could release if he wanted to but instead he told me that I had permission to release it; hence why I am releasing it.

This should work with vBulletin 3.5.0 RC 1 through vBulletin 3.6.1 and later.

Installation is very simple. Just import the plugin via vBulletin's "Download / Upload Plugins" page in the Plugin System in the Admin Control Panel and you're done.

I'll try to correct any bugs that you find. Let me know if you like this plugin and don't forget to click the install link if you install this.

Optional config.php Variables

$config['Microstats']['replacementvariable']

Setting this variable will make microstats place its data before any instance of whatever you set this variable to. Be careful with this as you might see microstats in mutiple places. My suggestion is to use a unique comment in the HTML source to prevent any issues.

E.g. $config['Microstats']['replacementvariable'] = '<!-- display microstats here -->';

$config['Microstats']['adminonly']

Setting this variable to anything will make microstats display itself only to administrators.

E.g. $config['Microstats']['adminonly'] = true;

What would I have to do in order to drop the server loads? The loads are already listed in the Admin CP so I see no point in displaying it there. However, queris and load times I am interested in.

You'll need to modify the plugin and remove lines 17 through 32.

Can't get much easier to install. I am getting reports of uncached templates and they are in red like it's important. What do I do?

Any chance we'll see it resembling like Teck's original microstats hack?

Yeah that would be great.

I'm fairly sure that the MySQL and PHP load percentage would require file edits..

The rest may be possible, not sure about the uncached template dropdown box though.

You're right, it would require file edits, hence why I haven't done it (when I was coding the last 1.x.0 version I went for a kitchen sink approuch).
