Hacks are ment to be addons for exactly what you need, not just new toys you think might be fun.

This is what overhacking causes. untraceable problems.

is not it far easier then to simply rename the forum folder, and upload a full fresh copy of the most stable current version of vb to the forum folder and only install the necessary hacks?


Can you ever imagine our friend finding his way out of 200 hacks ?

I have 9 mods. Do you think that is a lot? I'm afraid to add a bank, cash system to my forum for some reason..............do they tie up a lot of resources?

Add:

PHP Code:

$config['Misc']['debug'] = true; 


to your config.php file.

Can someone look at my forum: www.LaredoForums.com

I seem to be having the same problem as many of the people here. Can someone tell me what to do make my forum faster. This problem has been very frustrating for me. Thanks in advance.

I just turned on debugging and noticed that loading vbgarage.php is 34 queries.

Once the debug mode is on, what exactly am I looking for?

[MrZeropage]

it seems like alot of administrators did not really care about performance, template-caching and page-generation-times before this thread

If anybody wants his site analysed and optimized (template-caching ect) feel free to contact me
