Statistics Modifications - Dream/TomasDR Forum Statistics

Dream/TomasDR Forum Statistics

About This Hack:
With permission from Dream I have modified and expanded his statistics add-on, plus I added a couple changes.

You can use Dream's original Forum Statistics add-on here or you can download mine. Note the product names are different so you will need to uninstall Dream's Forum Statistics first.

The same warning applies with this add-on as with Dream's.
Warning: This add-on is not good for big forums, it calculates all the info on the fly.

Changes from Dream's statistics:

• I changed the Oldest & Youngest members shown to also include people that set their profile to "Display Age", originally Dream has it where it only displayed people who set it to "Display Age and Date of Birth".
• I also added a Lowest Reputation column for the Users statistics page.

Additions to Dream's statistics:

• Added the ability to set the default number of results in the settings. (Default Number of Results, default 10)
• Added the ability to display all users' Birthdays, even those who choose to hide their age, in the youngest/oldest column in the settings. (Show All Birthdays?)
• Added a statistics page for the Post Groan Hack if installed. (Enable it in settings)
• Changed the Thread statistics page if you have the Who Has Read Hack installed, I feel it is a much better representation of popularity then # of views. It adds top number of "Who has read" threads and also adds "Most Viewed in the last X days" to compliment "Most Replied in X Days". (Enable it in settings, note there is no need to disable "Enable Thread Stats?")
• Added a statistics page for the vbImageHosting Hack if installed, the statistics page is similar to the attachments page showing top users, latest uploads, and totals. (Enable it in settings)

Note all of the above additions are disabled by default, only enable them if you have the corresponding hack installed.

Installation Overview:

1. Unzip the file.
2. Upload everything in the Forum directory to your forums.
3. Install the product.
4. Optional: Edit the navbar to provide the link to statistics.php (Choose only one option)
   1. In the template Navbar

Option #1 - Find:

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="faq.php$session[sessionurl_q]" accesskey="5">$vbphrase[faq]</a></td>

Add AFTER:

<td class="vbmenu_control"><a href="statistics.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[statistics_statistics]</a>

OR If you want to add it to the QuickLinks dropdown.

Option # 2 - Find:

<if condition="$show['wollink']"><tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="online.php$session[sessionurl_q]">$vbphrase[whos_online]</a></td></tr></if>

Add AFTER:

OR If you want to HIDE the link from all but some usergroups.

Option # 3 - Find:

While I understand everyone's need to see a demo, I (and vBulletin.org) have a problem with that.

I run a hardcore, adults only forum! I cannot link to my forum.

There are several demo sites listed with the original hack by Dream and I clearly spelt out the changes/additions I did to Dream's hack.

If someone wishes to "advertise" a demo for my hack I will gladly mention it in the description like Dream did for his original hack.

Edit: I thought it was shown on the forumhome but I did not know you needed to add a link to get to the mod.

Sorry about that I "assumed" that everyone has navbar edits and it was a given. I have edited my instructions now to include 3 optional navbar edits.

Can you link to the cash mod you mentioned, I will look into adding a statistics page for it.

Actually yes it could, even the usernames of my more prolific posters are quite offensive, and of course thread titles are completely off limits, not to mention attachment names, etc..

But I did go back to Dream's original hack.

And chose one of the live demo sites listed, Yaxley Village which you don't even have to register to demo.

And posted a screenshot of the "Top Posters" stats from there.

If anyone would like to see more, again there are live demos, as I mentioned in the original add-on description, listed on Dream's original hack.

PS. If the owner of Yaxley Villiage would like me to remove the screen shot I will gladly do it but since they still had their site listed for a live demo I figure they won't mind a simple screenshot.
