(By Boofo)

What does this product do?
This product will add a Site Life Status info area, including Site Startup Date, Site Age, Site Location, Pagehits counter and Average visits, to your forumhome What's Going On box.

NOTE: The maximum counter value will depend on your system. The maximum signed integer value for 32 bit systems is 2147483647 (or 2,147,483,647), while the maximum signed integer value for 64 bit systems is 9223372036854775807 (or 9,223,372,036,854,775,807). These are the highest numbers this counter will be able to count to, depending on your system.

Version Information:
Version 1.0.0 --Initial release for vB 4
Version 1.0.1 --Added Site Life Status Date Display Format option to settings.
Version 1.0.2 --Added Site Life Status Locale option to settings. This will allow you to display the Site Life Status Date Display Format day and month name in your local language.
Version 1.0.3 --Fixed for WGO style changes in vB 4.0.8. (Site_Life_Status_vb4.08.zip only)
Version 1.0.4 --Reverted back to the original js file because of the timer messing up with the added leap year code.

Credits:
A thank you goes out to Shawn Dean for supplying the original javascript code for the Site Age counter.

I can do an if statement for the language if I can find out how vb sets the variable, I suppose. The locale only covers the Site Startup Date. The other words are just phrases that you can edit for whatever language you want and that should cover the rest of it.

yes, what i need it's a product that switch automatically when a user changes the lang ... do you think that it's possible?

for the phrases this isn't a trouble ...

edit: ps. there is a method (in the web) that allows me to know (approximately) how many visits i'd onto my site?

[Boofo]

I don lt know if it is easily possible, but I will look into it.

Yes, you will see how many visitors you have to your site. You can set the starting visitor count in the settings.

yes i can set it, but i know how many has visited (from the date of built) only with google analytics ..... i got 76.931 unique visitors, so i put this value in the ACP ... correct?

[Boofo]

That should be fine. You can just do an average of what you think it is, and times that by the days and that will work, too.

Bob, how i can translate the phrases? i tried to figure out the phrases but i missing some words like 'minutes', 'hourly' ... etc.

suggestions?

(you can check the site)

[Boofo]

All the phrases that you need to translate are in the product. the either start with site_ (as in site_visitors) or sls_ (as in sls_hours). You need to install this:

So everything (phrases, plugins, template, settings, etc.) is all in one place for a product and easy to find.

You have to export the one from the test board and overwrite the one on the live board.
