Board Optimization - vBMicroStats

This hack will add at the bottom of each vBulletin (powered) page, the statistics listed below.
Also, it will help you troubleshoot and optimize your vBulletin board by viewing or comparing PHP/MySQL options and other statistics that are normally hidden in your forum pages.

Regular Users:
? Load time of specified page in microseconds
? Number of queries executed
? PHP percent page usage
? MySQL percent page usage

Administrators Only:
? Active users browsing the forum (members and guests) new in 1.1.0
? Server memory usage per page (in Kb)
? Display DEBUG mode status
? Browser GZIP library compression status
? Server average loads
? Uncached templates (useful to troubleshoot the code)

The code modifications were tested into a clean installed vBulletin board. They work 100%.
The hack was tested in vBulletin 3.6.4 and 3.6.5.
If you want to test it into a lower version (3.6.x), let me know.
Also, if you encounter any problems, feel free to post your questions here.

Step by step install instructions are posted into readme.html file.
In order to perform an efficient modification of your files, I recommend you to use Komodo Edit or Textpad.
Both editors will allow you to complete all steps without any coding errors.

The code changes are very safe and designed not to interfere in any way with the vBulletin performance/functionality.
Make sure you modify, save and upload one file at the time to your server.
Then, simply run the product-vbmicrostats.xml file.

[high]The PLUGIN itself is DISABLED by default.[/high]
This was done in order to make sure you properly edit your code first and to avoid surprises.
You will need to enable it, once your code modifications are completed:
Plugins and Products > Manage Products > vB Microstats > Enable (dropdown)
Then, go to your vBulletin Options, click on BB MicroStats setting group and set all your options.

Upgrade to version 1.0.2.
Upgrade to version 1.0.3.
Upgrade to version 1.1.0.

Load the product-vbmicrostats.xml file, the usual way. The product is disabled by default.

Dorigan did you change the range of vB in line 10 of product-vbmicrostats.xml file to read "3.6.9"

Billy to upload, you need to go to the click down of 'plugins and products' then click on 'manage products' at the bottom of the screen you will see 'add/import product'. Click on that and then upload the xml file from your computer.

Works perfectly on 3.7RC1 thanks!

[TECK]

Thanks for the feedback, FRDS.
If it's working in RC1, it will work in all versions below that one also.

[Boofo]

I can second it working on RC1. This has worked the same for me since a fresh install of beta 3. Great hack, sir.
