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.

No, it's one of the links to add to admin/index.php

I had vbstats working great with vBulletin 2.2.2.

When I upgraded to 2.2.4 everything works, except under the "On Now" section of the main vbStats page if more than one user is logged in, only the first name shows. So if User1 and User2 and 1 guest are on the forums, it reads:
Members: 2 Guests: 1 - User1,

The comma is there, but the second logged in user doesn't show.
If User1, User2, and User3 and 1 guest are on my forums, it shows as:
Members: 3 Guests: 1 - User1, ,

Anyone else experience this after upgrading vB from 2.2.2 to 2.2.4?

[thehobbyforum]

It installed fine for me but I started out using vB v2.2.4??

[boatdesign]

I wonder what the upgrade from 2.2.2. to 2.2.4 might have changed that caused the names after the first one to disappear from vbstats?

[traekwon]

Bane, or anyone... we are running our pages off of a .shtml extension, and we want to include the vbs_counter.php into our main page, so we can get more info onto the stats. But when we do it, we get a weird error? Do we have to use a php include when including vbs_counter.php?

[boatdesign]

I wonder what the upgrade from 2.2.2. to 2.2.4 might have changed that caused the names after the first one to disappear from vbstats?

Never mind - ran install_vbstats.php again and chose the upgrade option and now all is well.

any ideas?

[DRnetman86]

Does this support 2.2.4 or 2.2.5?

[boatdesign]

Yes on 2.2.4

Probably on 2.2.5 but I'm waiting until 2.2.5 is out of beta to install it (best to wait a few days after a new patch is relased to get the final version.)
