VBStats version 1.0

This hack creats some graphical statistics of your vBulletin Forum.

Demo1, this shows some general statistics about your board (posted posts, posted threads, new users)

http://feyenoordforever.nl/forum/sta...action=vbstats

Demo2, this shows the posting statistics of a particular member (in this case memberid 1 which is me)

http://feyenoordforever.nl/forum/sta...stats&userid=1

You can sort everything per month, per week or per day.

It uses the Ykcee class (http://ykcee.sourceforge.net)
Note: It works ONLY if your server has installed the GDLIB library!
Follow the following orders very carefully. There are no changes for you vBulletin files needed

First download the zip-file: http://www.feyenoordforever.nl/vbhacks/VBStats.zip

1- Open "vbstats.php" and change the variables on top to your needs. (For explanation of the ykcee variables go to: http://ykcee.sourceforge.net/index.php?MAINNAV=2)
2- If your server is running a PHP version smaller than 4.0 then uncomment the array_slice function in "vbstats.php" (eg: remove /* and */ and the 'Uncomment this if you have a PHP version smaller than 4.0' line)
3- Make a new directory into your vBulletin root directory and call it "stats".
4- Copy "vbstats.php", "ykcee.php", "VERDANA.TTF", "VERDANAB.TTF" and "VERDANAI.TTF" to this directory.
5- Chmod vbstats.php to 755 if you're server is running php in cgi-mode.
6- Make a new template in your vBulletin control panel called "vbstats"
7- Insert the following HTML in it (You can change it to your own design, only leave the $orderby variable and the "action", "max" and "orderby" fields):

<html
<head><title>$bbtitle Statistics</title></head>
<body bgcolor="#7d7092" text="#000000" id=all leftmargin="10" topmargin="10" marginwidth="10" marginheight="10" link="#000000" vlink="#000000" alink="#000000">
<form method="POST">
<table width="100%">
<tr>
<td align="center">
<table>
<tr>
<td align="center">
<img src="vbstats.php?orderby=$orderby&what=users&max=$ max&increased=$increased">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="center">
<img src="vbstats.php?orderby=$orderby&what=posts&max=$ max&increased=$increased">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="center">
<img src="vbstats.php?orderby=$orderby&what=threads&max =$max&increased=$increased">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="center">
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="vbstats">
<input type="hidden" name="max" value="15">
<b><smallfont>Increasing?</b></smallfont><INPUT type="checkbox" value="true" name="increased">
<select name="orderby">
<option value="month">Per month</option>
<option value="week">Per week</option>
<option value="day">Per day</option>
</select>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</body></html>

8- Create somewhere you want in your forumtemplates a link to "http://yourdomain.com/forum/stats/vbstats.php?action=vbstats"
9- Create a new template in your control panel called "memberstats"
10- Insert the following HTML in it (You can change it to your own design, only leave the $orderby and $userid variables and the "action", "max" and "orderby" fields):

<html
<head><title>$bbtitle Member Statistics</title></head>
<body bgcolor="#7d7092" text="#000000" id=all leftmargin="10" topmargin="10" marginwidth="10" marginheight="10" link="#000000" vlink="#000000" alink="#000000">
<form method="POST">
<table width="100%">
<tr>
<td align="center">
<img src="vbstats.php?orderby=$orderby&what=members&use rid=$userid&max=$max&increased=$increased">
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td align="center">
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="userstats">
<input type="hidden" name="userid" value="$userid">
<input type="hidden" name="max" value="15">
<b><smallfont>Increasing?</b></smallfont><INPUT type="checkbox" value="true" name="increased">
<select name="orderby">
<option value="month">Per month</option>
<option value="week">Per week</option>
<option value="day">Per day</option>
</select>
<input type="submit" value="Submit">
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>
</body></html>

11- Create a link to "http://feyenoordforever.nl/forum/stats/vbstats.php?action=userstats&userid=$userid" in your "getinfo" template (the template for the userprofiles)

OR

insert just a little html in the "getinfo" template to show the image directly:

<img src="stats/vbstats.php?vbstats.php?orderby=week&what=members& userid=$userid">

(change the orderby variable to suit your needs)

That's it!

The "max" variable is to set a maximum of the displayed days/weeks/months...otherwise you had to much of them and the image got real messy.
You can change it if you want or let the user choose the max value by creating a dropdownlist or a input field in your template called 'max'

The only problem I have is that if there is a period of inactivity the graphic isn't represented as it should,
(see the 'geplaatste threads' graphic at http://feyenoordforever.nl/forum/sta...&orderby=month )
and note how there ar a few months missing...In fact the space between januari and july should be bigger than it is, but it's too complicated to fix that....
I might fix it later...

Let me know what y'all think

enjoy!

didn't work for me... just came up blank

mine says

GD Support enabled
GD Version between 1.3 and 1.6.1

#13 10-30-2000, 11:35 PM

i am not sure, but ain't templates 'vbstats' and 'memberstats' meant to be referenced in global.php as well for the templates to work ? can't remember is it global.php in admin directory or forum ?

Code:

Then call that script from your webbrowser and it'll tell you somewhere if GDLib is enabled

EG: http://feyenoordforever.nl/phpinfo.php

And search there for GD, it says for me:

GD Support enabled
GD Version between 1.3 and 1.6.1
FreeType Support enabled
FreeType Linkage with TTF library
GIF Support enabled

BTW: If your GD-version only supports another file-format (png for example) you can change it in vbstats.php:

$graph->SetFileFormat("gif");

'gif', 'jpg' and 'png' are supported

You don't have to create a new script... Just call the index.php in your admin folder with an action of phpinfo.

i.e. http://yourforum.com/youradmin/index.php?action=phpinfo

Eva > Nope, there is absolutely no need to change anythying in the Vbfiles...
I've no clue what could be wrong, but The_Sisko allready said my manual was incomplete so I may forgot something (I don't know what it might be

)
What do you mean by blank? Doesn't an image show up at all? Don't you even see the form button/select field?
More info plz, and an URL if you have that.

wluke > Thanks! didn't know that

Btw: You can change the colors of the graphics to suit your site...Look into the vbstats.php

First off all I tried to change it, but didn't realy fit. I try it later again!

I overlook my changes and find maybe I made a mistake and fixed thsi one and had so had to fix some more....

But still you said make a link to:
http://feyenoordforever.nl/forum/sta...ction=fmbstats
but I thing it ahve to be:
http://feyenoordforever.nl/forum/sta...action=vbstats
otherwise a blank page shows up.

So you also have to change in the first template the line:
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="fmbstats">
to
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="vbstats">

Otherwise it woukd work for me.
Oh and I I had to use png in the vbstats.php, but this is only for my Server!

Tell me if this is corect or do I make a mistake, then I apologize.

P.S.: Also close in the first template the <HTML> TAG, thats it.

#17 10-31-2000, 09:29 AM

Two stupid mistakes of me

I changed the above readme in this thread and will change the README.TXT in the zipfile...

Thanks for pointing that out...

Eva2000 > I think this was your problem, change the template where it says

<input type="hidden" name="action" value="fmbstats">

and change it to

<input type="hidden" name="action" value="vbstats">

And point your browser to: http://yourdomain/to/your/vbforum/st...action=vbstats

Let me know if it worked...

#18 10-31-2000, 09:40 AM

OK, and another question. There is a 3D effekt in the title text. Where do I find the "white" for the backcolor of the 3D Text?

And the above suggestion to show the forum rising in a bar would be great.

Thanks for the great script!

#19 10-31-2000, 09:55 AM

I don't think there is one, but you can turn the shading off by setting:

$graph->SetShading(1);

to

$graph->SetShading(0);

in vbstats.php

Btw: The link to your forum underneath your logo on your stats page isn't right, now it points to: http://www.startrek-download.de/vbb/stats/index.php
while it should point to: http://www.startrek-download.de/vbb/index.php

I'll take alook into the rising thing..maybe today

#20 10-31-2000, 09:59 AM

If you wanna change the shading color you'll have to change some code in ykcee.php, the color is hardcoded in the class (weird)

Code:

if ($this->shading == 1) {
			list($r, $g, $b) = ColorSet("silver");

So change 'silver' to one of the appropiate colors

#21 10-31-2000, 12:07 PM

ups, it's my bad english, I was talking about the shading, but didin't find the right word, so I tried to explain it with 3D effect

. Anyway, work perfect now.
