vB4 SuperCharged - Optimises CSS, Javascript and HTML
Developer Last Online: Oct 2021
This is designed for vBulletin 4.0.x only.
DO NOT INSTALL on vB 4.1.x or 4.2.x. Even if it worked correctly, the effect is negligible as vB4 is nowhere near as terrible client-side speed-wise as it once was. DO NOT ask for fixes, they will not come, I have moved to XenForo. __________________________________________________ ______________ tl;dr - Significant frontend speed improvements for vBulletin 4 Don't forget to Mark as Installed if you use this mod, and a nomination for MOTM would be nice __________________________________________________ ______________ Features: CSS Optimiser: Minifies all CSS files and serves CSS directly, eliminating the PHP overhead from css.php. Javascript Optimiser: Intelligently defers Javascript loading (puts script tags just before </body> on the fly) and combines common Javascript files. Also features optional compression with Google Closure Compiler. HTML Optimiser: Based on HELLCAT's Realtime Page Compressor, and adds complete whitespace removal around block and meta elements and removal of unimportant comments. Attachment Optimiser: Intended for FastCGI users only - serves attachment thumbnails and images directly rather than through PHP. All this is done efficiently and on-the-fly - no need for any template edits. __________________________________________________ ______________ Installation:

Changelog: 1.51:
ONLY if you wish to use the Attachment Optimiser, something similar to this is needed in your server config (nginx): Code:
location /customattachments { if ($request_uri ~* \.(png)) { add_header Content-Type image/png; } if ($request_uri ~* \.(jpg|jpeg)) { add_header Content-Type image/jpeg; } if ($request_uri ~* \.(gif)) { add_header Content-Type image/gif; } } Download Now

It just places .gz files which can be loaded by that Nginx module, or any other webserver which supports a similar feature.
Coincidentally I am using that Nginx module on Windows |

Don't know if this has been reported but when the MOD is enabled the "New Groups" column on the groups page shows for a second and then disappears. And the column on the blog page (with the three tabs - recent entries, most popular, best blogs) gets pushed to the right. By the way, this is happening in Safari 4 and not IE8.

Setting the "Enable Javascript Optimiser" to NO fixes the problem, but lost some page refresh speed.

Installed, made a huge difference along with accompanying suggestions. YSlow shows this as well as the feel from my end. My only question is about this "Grade F on Add Expires headers" I would appreciate suggestions on how to change that.
TIA! |

No, that does something completely different and separate (I run both). Also it works on 4.0:

What is the best way to understand the page load times with and without this mod? I have firefox and firebug if those provide any benefit.

Conflit with VSA Advanced Forum Statistics.
Only show "loading..." (Need to turn off Javascript Optimizer). |
