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.

DEAR GOD CHECK THE SECOND POST OF THIS THREAD BEFORE YOU ASK A QUESTION!!!!

For all the masses,

I did this on a clean install of vb2.2.7, and it works fine, no errors, what I did was follow the instructions in the .zip file and the only change I had to make was in the admin/index.php From what I can gather the oringal thing to look for was this

Code to look for before version 2.2.5
<tr><td>
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing= "0" cellpadding="2" id="navtable">
<?php maketableheader("Stats & Logs"); ?>

Unfortunatly that code has changed since version2.2.5 so if you have version 2.2.5 - 2.2.7 look for this code "Thank Threadcrapper"

Code to look for after version 2.2.5
<center><a href="index.php?s=<?php echo $sessionsessionhash}; ?>&action=home:>
Control Panel Home </a></center>
<table width ="100%: border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="<?php echo iif($cpanvjs,2,5?; ?>" id="navtable">

SO THAT SHOULD DO IT.

P.S. I attached the index file so if you want you can just download it, the file name is index.php.txt, so when you upload it rename it to just index.php and the code is allready in there so it should work great.

I can't find any downloads beyond the one for v. 2.2.1. Is there an updated download for 2.2.6? If so, can someone point me to it?

Thanks.

[vkrazzy]

I used the one for 2.2.3 it worked fine and I'm running 2.2.

[GaleForce]

The forumhome addon thing isnt working for me. The stats are not displaying on my Forum Home.

[SeanM]

Nevermind i found where the phpinclude goes

How do you change the background colors of the tables/cells. Mine are defaulting to teal and I can't find anywhere to change them.

I have searched the templates, but still no luck

Any help appreciated!

anyway of having it not count on stats everytime someone clicks on any link in the forum ?

I even tried it. 2 clicks to stats 2 more on stats

[Greystang302]

Just tried to install this on vB 2.2.8 per the directions, with no luck. I uploaded all of the files, then opened the install_vbstats.php file in my browser. The initial page opened up fine, but when I clicked on NEW INSTALLATION nothing happened. I was taken to the page that was supposed to be Step 3, but it was blank.

This didn't seem to harm anything because the forum is still up and running, but with no vbstats. If I missed an explanation, I apologize... I made it to page 30 of this thread and could read no more.

Hmm. not bad but why not make it all look the same?

Open /admin/index.php

Locate

makenavselect("Options", "<hr>");

Below It Paste

// *************************************************
makenavoption("Config","vbstats_set.php?action=","|");
makenavoption("View Public Statistics","../vbstats.php?action=","|");
makenavoption("Exclude vbStats URL","vbstats_set.php?action=add","|");
// ***
makenavselect("vbStats Options", "<hr>");

now it blends in with the rest of Admin CP

I've only installed a couple of hacks, as I am a newbie, so don't laugh too hard at this question.

Where is the Vbulletin root directory? I have looked in all the folders on my server, and can't find that. Do I create that? Thanks.

The root directory is where all your vB files and folders are installed to.

I presume this is your forums URL

so your Root directory is forums
