Miscellaneous Hacks - Spider Display

Spider Display
Version 1.0.4
(By Boofo)

What does this product do?
This Hack displays the Number of Spiders on Forumhome and Who is Online.

If you are using a previous version of this mod, make sure to replace the default vBulletin template lines back into the templates and they are now automatically edited.

Version Information:
Version 1.0.1 --Initial release for vBulletin 3.7
Version 1.0.2 --Fixed MySQL error.
Version 1.0.3 --Fixed the leading comma issue when there were no members online.
Version 1.0.4 --Template edits now done automatically. No more manual template edits.

Credits:
A big thank you goes out to Andreas for coming up with the original code for this for 3.5.4. It now works in 3.7.

Installation overview:
Products to install: (1)
File Edits: (See the NOTE below)

Installation Instructions:
1. Upload spiders_vbulletin.xml to the includes/xml directory on your site.

2. Go to your Admin CP
Scroll down to 'Plugin System'
Click 'Manage Products'
Click 'Add/Import Product'
Click the 'Browse' button, and locate the product-spiderdisplay.xml file on your computer

Done!
Enjoy!

NOTE: There is one file edit that I have not found a way to get around yet. It is a special template cache that must be used with this. The easiest way to do it is add the file edit to the includes/config.php. Since this file does not change as often, you should be fine on most upgrades. This is the ONLY file edit.

NOTE: If you do not click install, you do not need support.

It was my apprarently bad attempt at a little American humor.

[mariocaz]

Jejeje ok no problem

My friend, why do you put in the Mod package two xml files?, because I see in the install instructions that only we have to use one or am I wrong ?

[Boofo]

The spiders_vbulletin.xml goes in the includes/xml directory. That is the listing of spiders so the names show up. I just threw that in as it is the latest version of the spiders listing right now.

and another little thing, the code that we have to add in includes/cinfig.php, is after or before this part:

I think Before, but want to ask to be sure.

Thank you
