Mini Mods - Make your forum's speed seem faster

*Staff note: This has an effect in Microsoft Internet Explorer + Firefox*
(but still not tested on others).

Hi,

This is my second modification and I hope you like it.

What it does: It lets your members and your visitors feel that your site or forum is very fast when they access it. It is just like a trick only not really it does speed up your forum.

Version of vB: It works with ALL versions: vB1, vB2, vB3.0.x, vB3.5.x, vB3.6.x, vB3.7.x, vB3.8.x, and any version in future. More than this, you can use it for any simple website. :smoke:

Time to install: ~ 1 sec.

How to install: There are no database changes, additional files, ... etc. But there is only one change in a template.

1. Open the HEADER template.

2. Place the following code at the top of the contents:

<meta http-equiv="Page-Exit" content="BlendTrans(Duration=0)" />
<meta http-equiv="Page-Enter" content="BlendTrans(Duration=0)" />

Note: Otherwise, you can put it at the top of HEADINCLUDE template.

3. Save & Enjoy.

I tested your recommendation just now and it improves performance indeed. Thanks.

I’m using this with the following condition:

<if condition="is_browser('ie')">
<meta http-equiv=Page-Exit content=BlendTrans(Duration=0) />
<meta http-equiv=Page-Enter content=BlendTrans(Duration=0) />
</if>

Allows you to keep the page valid html / xhtml… and saves other browsers from reading them two lines :P

Thanks,
Mat
