Compress Forum Templates Speed up your Forums & Save Bandwidth
Description:
This hack compresses your sites Templates into the database resulting in a significantly smaller page size and faster loading pages.
The benefits of this Template Compressor as opposed to virtually any other that you have installed is that this compresses the templates into the database.
Other hacks compress the pages on every page load which takes CPU/Memory usage as well as slows down the actual output of the page.
1. Download Zip File, Extract files..
2. Read install.txt and follow it
3. Note: Anytime you update your templates, make sure to click "Compress Templates".
4. If you have any problems with certain hacks not working, add affected templates to "Template Ignore" setting in the Admin Control Panel settings.
Common Templates That May Need To Be Added to Ignore Settings:
Version 4.2: Forgot to upload ZIP File..
Version 4.1:
Changed setting location, you now modify them in the Admin Control Panel under Template Compressor Settings; there you can specify the templates to ignore.
Flashchat, others sometimes cause problems; so by default a few vbchat templates are listed in the ignore setting.
If you have problems with any other hacks not showing, trying add the 'forumhome' template to the ignore setting and recompress your templates.
Version 4: Integrating Hellcats regex, hopefully will solve some problems.
I've done all of the above and can't seem to bring it back
I also re-imported (while overwriting) his product
(I was planning on getting rid of the shoutbox sometime, but would be nice to know how to enable it again)
Edit: I appear to have it working again, I was playing with the Plugin Accelerator options :ermm:
Edit2: Everytime I click Rebuild All Plugins it will show & hide the shoutbox lol.. Maybe I should be posting this in your Plugin Accelerator thread though.

Ya please do, would rather it be a problem with the accelerator actually as its new code, this stuff pretty tried and true; was hoping for no new problems with this
first relase was "realtime page compressor"
2ndly Hellcat compressor
Now this...
Its Kool
hellcat & this one together will work w/o any problem?
Agerly waiting for the reply....
Thnx
No point in using both, hellcats actually slows down page output as its having to compress on every page load... that was the reason i released this hack on vb3 way back when.. and vb3.5 now.
No point in having compression if its not gonna help speed up the page; and you cant if ur compressing on each page load.
thnx man
in post #15 ur told ur gonna modifi some...
so waiting after u update then we will download thta,,
thnx for promt suppot (Y)
wishes for u
It may be tomorrow, you can go ahead and download it as it will work for almost 99% of the cases; if not just "Uncompress templates" and it should return anything broken back to normal.
