Forum Home Enhancements - Users Registered Today

Users Registered Today

This modification will keep track of the users who've registered every day. It was requested by Stuart (Spinball).

Installation:

1. Upload the attached file to your includes/cron directory.
2. Import the Product XML.
3. Perform the template edits described in the readme file.
4. Configuration is accessible via vBulletin Options -> Forums Home Page Options

Notes:

This modification utilizes vBulletin's datastore to reduce load. Rather than pulling fresh data on every page load, the number of registered users for that day are queried for every 30 minutes.

Version History:
1.03 - Corrected issue in the cron file
1.02 - Small bugfix
1.01 - Rewrote to utilize datastore
1.00 - Initial Release

Paul wrote that one. I wrote this one.

Stuart requested I make this for him and release it here -- I guess he (nor I) didn't know one had already been released.

I'm not sure that Paul uses the datastore either.

Good work lad.

a template edit?

[Spinball]

On a very busy forum, it makes sense to cache the query rather than ask the SQL server to get it every time the home page loads.

Does this do a rolling 24 hours or just this day?

[Kirk Y]

Just this day, according to each user's timezone offset.
