Try disabling the polling feature in your AdminCP or set the time to a higher value (like 30 seconds).

I am having some browsers crash when loading a page when they have messages available; so I have to remove it.

Most of it has to do with the way messages are deleted.

When you prune messages, or your members delete messages, it just deletes the message ID (not the entire message)

So when the hourly cleanup script runs, it shifts through every message, for every user, and see's if it has a message ID. If it doesn't, it deletes the message.

The longer you go without pruning, the harder this hourly check is on your CPU. I've had over 3,000,000 rows examined by the cleanup query, all because I had a few thousand pager messages either in the system or deleted. This happened with a 3000 member board with about 50 people online at a time. This will shut ANY cpu down until the query finally times out... I had it hit my server so hard one time that I had to call the datacenter to request a reboot.

The last version of this hacks includes an option to automaticly delete messages that have been read. If you enable this it helps with the load problems because the cleanup script is not trying to do too much after your big 'prunes'.

I'm running vbPortal, and I have installed this mod - but it doesn't seem to be working on my portal pages, particularly the home page. In order for anyone to see the pager messages, they have to be browsing the forum section.

Other than that, it works fine. But is there a way to get it to work on the home page in vbportal? Also - it's not showing up in the vbportal "quick links". Is this normal?

Thanks,
Adam

Ok I don't know if anyone else is having this problem but.....

I have 4 different styles on my forum. And if I send a page to someone who is using a different style than I am, they don't get the page. Same vise versa.. if they send me a page, I don't receive it either.

Is there some sort of bug that prevents this from working when members are using different styles??

There's another issue with this as well....

I have the userpermissions set so that only my admins and staff are supposed to be able to use the pager. NO members are to be able to use it.
However they can still see the icon in the post bit and when they click on it, it DOES open the pager window. So evidently, the hack isn't taking on those usergroup permissions either.

any fixes for this??

welp, since the developer for this hack hasn't bothered to to reply to this thread since the middle of April, and he's been online twice this month but didn't drop in here...... I'm uninstalling this hack.
There are way too many problems with it, and since it's a nicety but not a necessity, it's just not worth it to pull my hair out over it, lol

When/if it gets updated/fixed I may look at it again
