Plugin Accelerator

Vbulletin Plugin Accelerator
Accelerate Your Forums Plugins

Summary:

If you use the Vbulletin Plugin System (Specially if you use a lot of plugins), this will help improve the performance of the system overall by inlining all of the plugin code into the PHP files themself.

Essentially making it as if you had hacked the files yourself, this will give you better performance on your forum overall.

PS. Use this in conjunction with my Other Hack (Compress Forum Templates) for speeding up your forum even more by compressing templates.

Install:

1. Download the zip file.
2. Open install.txt and Read Instructions

Upgrade:

1. Download the zip file.
2. Uninstall Product "Vbulletin Plugin Accelerator"
3. Open install.txt and Read Instructions to install like usual.

Current Status: (RC2)

Release Candidate 2 Has Been Released.
This code has been deemed acceptable and to be used by all.

Please report any bugs back to this thread.
Thanks.

• Latest Changes: 02/11/2006
• Fixed another problem with backslashes, hopefully this will fix some other problems.
• To upgrade, just replace the includes/class_plugin_accelerator.php with the new one.

Important Notes:

1. While this IS a release candidate, more than likely its not fully bug free so Please backup your files before you install this modification, this system is not yet perfect.

2. When running "Rebuild Hook Cache" and "Rebuild All Plugins" if you ever see a small parse error, or file couldnt be opened error; re-run both again and it should go away.

3. includes/hook_files.php contains locations of all the files the accelerator scans for plugin hooks, if you have any files that have been renamed, moved, etc.. you need to add it to that file on its own line, thanks.


If You Have Problems:

If you incur any parse errors, or pages not displaying after running the steps. Please make a copy of the affect file as well as its original version, zip them and upload somewhere. Send me a link to the file for me to download, review and provide a fix.

Its happened too many times where I have posted in a thread for support and my posts have been totally ignored. This time i cannot afford that. As a result of installing this modification I have noticed at least three other modifications that dont work anymore:

VBgallery in forumhome
Members who have visited forums in the last 24 hours
Members who have posted in the last 24 hours.

This hack has been a complete nightmare for me. I really need help.
I have tried disabling the product in two places, bu tit still didnt help.

These are my ignored template compressor templates:
editor_jsoptions_font editor_jsoptions_size phpinclude_start phpinclude_end forumhome_vbshout forumhome_vbshout_shout
forumhome_vbgallery
forumhome_vbgallery_who
forumhome_vbgallery_newsbits
forumhome_vbgallery_nav
FORUMHOME

I am very sorry if i was a pain earlier. For anyone having problems with this, you should add whatever template is giving you problems to the ignore list in the template compresssor, uncompress the templates and recompress and it shoul dwork fine. Thank you for some great hacks Trigunflame
