Here's the newest version, it's only been a year and a half since the last update!

Translations have been removed as it just made it easy for people to get the hack even without a license. I am hoping people who make translations will be kind enough to post here.

Special Note: I am about as far as it gets from a PHP guru. This is my first hack or addon or whatchamacallit. If this somehow nukes your system Im quite apologetic, but I know you will all be smart enough to BACK UP YOUR DATABASE BEFORE INSTALLING THIS.. I have faith Brad and Chen have both checked this out and given their stamps on it but that doesnt mean it will all Gel for you. Be smart, back it up.

Install: There is a self install file that takes care of the templates and tables, simply unzip the package and upload it (with paths) to your vbulletin directory. Then run the install. Please be sure you add your site (yoursite.com) to the excluded urls in the CP. If you dont your site will get counted as a referrer and that can get messy.

Demo: You can of course see the demo at http://www.talkloud.net/ however if you'd like to see it in use on some other boards check out vbstats page where I will try to keep a list of installs for you to check out. If you do install it please let me know so I can put your site up!

I tested this on my test forum, and on one public forum, and all went well, if there are any problems you notice please report them here as soon as possible.

[Bane]

haha NO, thats just a stupid comment. yes or no would of done

[hypedave]

so can anybody answere my question

[Bane]

hypedave: This will be included in the next version, but for now the easiest way to reset the stats is to run the un-install then reinstall. You dont have to take out the file hacks and it wont mess up any template customizing you do. Just deletes the tables and readds them.

XiXora: Yup it does, but you have to sort through the 500 posts for the fixes for the 2.2.x files

Codename49: The only time I have had problems with the white screen is when one of the included files are missing. Or you may have reuploaded the default style. Check to be sure:

1) Your vbstats language file is uploaded.
2) You do in fact have the templates installed for all styles.
3) That the path to the counter is correct.

[hypedave]

man its that easy, lol okay, thanks man, this is a vey nice addon it takes the place expensice software =)

[XiXora]

erk. i hope they work as they are then thanx bane. are you workin on a 2.2.1 specific version to work properly?

[JohnBradshaw]

Bane,

This hack is great! I notice on the talkloud site that you have a Stars and Awards hack can you tell me where to get them as they are perfect for my site!

Oh and Merry Christmas!
