Microstats - load times, server loads, queries, uncached templates

This is a derivative of Erwin's microstats hack for vBulletin 3.5.0's plugin system. The main difference is that by default it shows the page generation time and query count to the public. Server loads and Uncached Queries are shown only to administrators.

I had sent this to Erwin so he could release if he wanted to but instead he told me that I had permission to release it; hence why I am releasing it.

This should work with vBulletin 3.5.0 RC 1 through vBulletin 3.6.1 and later.

Installation is very simple. Just import the plugin via vBulletin's "Download / Upload Plugins" page in the Plugin System in the Admin Control Panel and you're done.

I'll try to correct any bugs that you find. Let me know if you like this plugin and don't forget to click the install link if you install this.

Optional config.php Variables

$config['Microstats']['replacementvariable']

Setting this variable will make microstats place its data before any instance of whatever you set this variable to. Be careful with this as you might see microstats in mutiple places. My suggestion is to use a unique comment in the HTML source to prevent any issues.

E.g. $config['Microstats']['replacementvariable'] = '<!-- display microstats here -->';

$config['Microstats']['adminonly']

Setting this variable to anything will make microstats display itself only to administrators.

E.g. $config['Microstats']['adminonly'] = true;

Are you on windows? Windows wont show server loads. Also can we get debug info and gzip level in here for admins?

Debug Information? What debug information are you proposing?

As for gzip, I'm not sure if it can be accurately detected as it can be enabled via .htaccess.

No, it's a Linux machine.
Like I said, I have the vB3.x.x version running fine on my public board.

You need to redo this part right here.

PHP Code:

if ($vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid']==6) {
    $loadavg = @file_get_contents("/proc/loadavg");
    if ($loadavg) {
        $regs = explode(" ",$loadavg);
        $serverload=' [Server Loads: <b>'.$regs[0].'</b> '.$regs[1].' : '.$regs[2].']';
        $debughtml .= iif($_TEMPLATEQUERIES, " (<b>" . sizeof($_TEMPLATEQUERIES) . "</b> queries for uncached templates)", '') . "$serverload";
    }
} 


Like me im on windows so I dont have proc meaning that I dont get to see any of the admin stats becuase of the way you have it laid out.

Yea it's a nice plugin but it just makes me feel like it's lacking a bit of info.

/me clicks install

I've released version 1.0.1 so Windows users will get to see the queries for uncached templates.

That would require file edits and I like having this as a plugin.

It works great, and it's a quick 2 second upload.

For the lot of us that want something more advanced, i'm sure it'll be around, but this works fine for the ones not looking for the extra functionality.

Again, Nice work, thanks for the release.

Is it possible to move where the stats show up?
