[edit: sorry, didnt mean to discourage you or anything. was just trying to be helpful to the people on this forum.]

I gotta login to your board

If it's on purpose, I think it will make less people download your hack.

i tried to enter your board but it is totaly in German. it would be better if the board was in english, so more people could be able to understand what's been written

I want it too, but like the others said, can't read German and won't register login either

I logged in and got the hack it works fine, Thanks for your work.. but there's a litlle difference with the hack that was done by you before. there were radio buttons on cp and i could have placed the counter where ever i want. eg. i dont want the counter to be seen on the summary page ... is there a solution for this ?

the signup/login really isn't that much different from qasic's signup/ give some info from the IP member area... it does reduce the amount of people who use the work tho.

I don't think it requires any line from the members area, so why is it needed?

well I registered and I still can't get in!
keeps throwing debug errors on every page for me, I give up!

Do not make the changes in public_forum_summary.pl, so you have noch hit's on the main site.

Can you please remove the login request?

I don't like that its storing to the data files like that. I liked it best when it was in a separate file.

* sigh *

i was gonna post the link but dpk seems to have done that already.

Thanks DPK.
Nice hack e@sy.

Thx DPK.
Topic can closed. Link is dead

Are you going to upload it again? (please do it, many people want it)

i think i still have the code cached, but i wont post it without permission from the author. i think he got ticked i posted that link.

yup, he got pissed, he took down his english distribution and left the german one up. if u register on his board and goto the ubb 6.2 hack forum u'll see the german version still there. so if u want his hack, just register on the board.

.: end of rant :.

e@sy, why did you do that? If you're offended that DPK posted the URL, just upload it again as another URL and tell people you want them to register. DPK wouldn't have posted it if you would've said the registration thing is on purpose...

LK, I registered but for some reason I can't login on his site, why the need to register anyway? I'll say no more otherwise I'll no doubt offend someone but I have to say this sucks.

I can login, make sure you didn't add WWW. to his URL.

Like Allen said, also Qasic wanted us to register. Even though Qasic did it only to verify our license, you can see it's allowed. I guess e@sy wants more people to be registered in his board.

e@sy, about the German version, I suggest you to make it XHTML compatible (nowrap="nowrap" instead of NOWRAP, etc).

The login is disable, the link is in the answer of the thread and nowrap is change

Cool

Looks good e@sy.. one thing is a bit unclear, and that's the editing if ubb_edit_post.cgi.
[code][/code]chomp($last_numbers[6]);

can be found in a few places, so can

if ($in{reply_num} eq '000000') {

which one goes with which edit?

the first one

Code

[/code]the second one
 [code]

I have only this two.

OK, that's where I was confused then. The first one is actually the second one (around line 515 or so) and the second one is actually the first one (around line #295 or so

)

I installed it on the db here, seems to be working well, muchas gracias

Something went wrong with editing the templates, probably public_forum_summary.pl.

Here's what went wrong:

Notice the blue part on the left side. And then the mod's are in the Last Post column.

Have you edit in ubb_forum_summary.cgi

**********
* search *
**********
# determine colspan
$ColSpan = 3;
****************
* replace with *
****************
# determine colspan
$ColSpan = 4;

If you have don it, so write $ColSpan = 5;

There is a problem with the accelerator. If you read a topic from ultimatebb.php the counter do not count. I'm working on this problem.

Hi e@sy,

once you have resloved the problem with accelerator, please do notify here.

We are using 6.2 with accelerator and need this hack badly -- thanks

Same here

e@sy, I don't know how is this hack different than your v0.7e, but I 'accelerated' v0.7e. Is my text file going to help you?

LK, my v0.7e ????? I don't know which you mean, but sent me the textfile, please.

Any word yet?

e@sy - I just tried installing this on UBB 6.2.1 Br 1 and got the same problem as JonNJapan with the white box on the moderators column.

I tried changing this $ColSpan = 5; and even tried 6, 7 and 8, still had the same effect. I cleared cache between each change.

Any update on the accelerator thing and any ideas on this problem?

CYPM

fixed a bug that it has with the polls.

Find in ubb_get_topic.cgi
$stat_line[10]= "";

Replace with

if($stat_line[10] =~ m/^(w{12})$/) {
$stat_line[10] =~ m/^(w{12})$/
} else {$stat_line[10]= "";}# end if

do this in the instuctions if you haven't installed it yet do this to that file if you have already installed this.

This now keeps the hit hack from destroying polls by turning polls into regular topics. Now polls stay as polls.

MrStormyNights,

in public_forum_summary.pl

**********
* search *
**********
} # end posts column
****************
* replace with *
****************
} # end posts column

if ($alt_color eq "$vars_style{AltColumnColor1}") {
$alt_color = "$vars_style{AltColumnColor2}";
} else {
$alt_color = "$vars_style{AltColumnColor1}";
}
$Row .= qq~

$hitcounter

~;

you need to do it twice, there are 2 places that you need to apply the codes above

First off i cant find stat [10] thingy in that file nor any fle. And i didnt add that templates twice neither and everything is working perfectly. I never tested the poll thingy yet.

ok i just tested the poll and everything works like a charm. great hack man.

Well I too cannot find the $stat_line[10]= "";
thing. I did the public_forum_summary.pl add it twice thing and I changed the $$ColSpan = 4; to
ColSpan = 5;

I still get the blank spaces next to the news fader and the forum stats hacks. Any idea's how to fix that?

easy, is this hack ok to install on my 6.2.1 ? And does it work ok with phpAccel ?
thanks

Anyone seen e@sy lately????? His last response was on the Feb. 7 and he still has not told us if he added LK accelerator fix yet or not.

I really want this hack but I cannot live with the results I get when I try to install it.

I am on UBB 6.2.1 and everytime I install it I get blank boxes at the end of the News Fader and the Stats hack. Can anyone shed any light on this since e@sy is MIA!

@extreme Tim
I think you use an older version of the hack.I have change it on UBB 6.2.1 beta

@Luundah
I have change the search for this problem. Know there is no problem for understanding

@MrStormyNights
I have a look to your forum. There are no blank boxes ?????

@all
No it work's with the accelerator but if you see a topic with the acce it do not count. So you can use it but the Accelerator do not count.

Nope i used the newest one at the time. It had 2 bugs with the polls when they were fully added. One i had to do some of the newtopic edits to the public_polls.pl file and then the bug fix i posted up there.

I see you have released an updated version for 6.2.1 but it still has a bug when you post a new poll it resets the forum post count back to one. What i did to fix this was i did the steps out of new_topic on ubb_polls.cgi i know all the steps don't work for that so i just did the ones that worked and it fixed it.

Does anyone have a fix so that you can use this with the accelerator and version 6.2.1?

Boss

I turned my accel off so i could use this version even tho i have his old 0.7e version that works on 6.2.1 I just like this one better becuase of the way it works and stuff.

e@sy, I got a little help from LK, I had to change the ColSpan in public_forum_summary.pl also. That fixed the News Fader, then,
The Statistics hack has a Column Span setting in it, so I had to change that to fix that one.

e@sy, is there any way to get this to count the hits for pages viewed with the accelerator? I really don't want to turn it off if I don't have to.

It just didnt work with the accelerator

When my forum counter (bravenet) showed 25,000 hits in a day, the grand total of hits reported by the accelerator was less then 100 in about 12 hours.

LK If you have a solution for ubb accelerator why don.t you post it? Like a patch .Its not a violation of easys copyright I think if you credit him

Bump !

any news on this?
how do you fix the poll resetting the counter to zero?

thank you

I've been wanting the "hit hack" back on my board -- but haven't installed it because of the accelerator issues. I hope that this can be resolved sometime soon!

Any fix for the resetting of hit counter when polls are made?

yes i posted up there what you need to do but here goes again.

just open up ubb_polls.cgi and do all the steps out of ubb_new_topic.cgi that work. There are a couple steps that don't work. Just forget them. Just do the ones that work and your fine.

I did this on my board the day i installed this hack. (about 2-3 weeks ago)

I could really use the hit hack, but due to the excessive bandwidth I use I need the accelerator!
The hit hack is a good way for prospective advertisers to see how busy your board is! It also encourages people who post and don't get many replies, they don't think people are ignoring them!

I've been using this hack for a while - it does work with the accelerator, it just doesn't COUNT .php views, so what you're getting is number of times a post has been viewed for the first time, which isn't bad. However! people could quite easily view a post more than once, therefore the .php version of this would be much appreciated. ANY NEWS ON THIS ??

e@sy just emailed me saying php programming isn't really his thing, there's an alternative to the accelerator itself but don't really want to mess around with that.
Can anybody else provide a patch for this hack to enable it to work with php views? P L E A S E ??

LK has the solution I think because in his forum works without any error

LK help us out here :-P

Well, I have 1.07e, not 3.01... However, my version is at https://www.ubbdev.com/columns/lk/treffer1_07e.txt .

I'm not sure if the Text file is updated, tho.

LK can we use yours on top of e@sy's ?? Do we have to get rid of easy's completely to use yours or can we modify easy's a bit so it works with php (assume yours does work with php?).
Don't want to have to start from scratch again.

Hit hack 1.07e has a totally different structure, you have to remove 3.01.

I have never tried 3.01, but I think it shows the amount of times someone visited a forum. This one only shows it for threads.

Thanks LK!

two things:
at: ubb_forum.cgi and ubb_forum_summary.cgi
It says" $_ =~ s//$replace/g;

That is not in 6.2.1 what do I have to look for?

I made it for myself.

Use WOL for CGI for 6.1 instructions ONLY for ubb_forum_summary.cgi/ubb_forum.cgi, ONLY when it mentions that line. Then remove that line and add after my line.

LK can you please explain it?
I'm a bit confused now

Thank you

Inka

p.s. why i was keep getting redirect to vbulletin.com a few min ago?

The hack of LK is a earlier one of me. You cannot do it on top. There are different way's to count the click's. With LK's help i have make changes on the PHP - problem and now it count. But it will not show on the forum page. Give me the next night or two and i have an update.

THANK YOU E@SY !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Easy [Linked Image]

thanks easy, looking forward to your update.

Oh, goody! There he is!

gr8 e@sy, better late than never

[email protected] for putting the time into creating this hack! Wish I spoke German to thank you properly!

QUESTION: I installed the hack and everything seems to be working ok...just the Hit's title on the column doesn't seem to be showing up. Was there something I did wrong?

I thought maybe it had something to do with the wordlets mod.

hit_colum => "Hit's",

Is this correct?

Not sure why it's not showing up properly...please advise!
Regards,
Helen

hmmm i used the hit hack but now it adds a column..

in the forum summary but i got all kinds of hacks installed so it adds a black column in the news fader and statistics and some other things..

So if i aint hack the forum_summary.. is this problem solved then?

Ok...solved my own problem.
Views didn't show up because when I manually updated vars_wordlets_mods.cgi it TOTALLY hiccupped! So...I had to rip everything out and reinstall the mods wordlets using Qasic's auto install thingee! Really helped! Thanks Qasic! Now to get those stat files redone!

Wordlets for 6.2+ for Dummies*chuckles*

have anyone get this display correctly if you have bevel hack installed prior? I got it count ok but the display kinda wacky.

I finally decided to try this hack but i have a problem with it

first of i installed a fresh copy of the hack posted by LK the new one 1.07e ( wich is old )

I have installed lot's and lot's of hack but the problem is mainly with Hypercell i think....

Now the layout is perfect the problem is that the count is going a bit crazy.

let me explain if i click on a hypercell on the table part of it without tuching the link in forum forum_summary.pl i get a perfect count of 1 wich is perfect !

If i click on the same hypercell but this time by clicking on the actual link in the table the i get a count of 2 instead of 1 !?!?!?

the funniest thing is if a turn the hypercell of the 2 different count swap positions !!

Can someone please help me out?

Thank you

p.s. Lk what did you mean by:

in reply to:

Thanks LK!

two things:
at: ubb_forum.cgi and ubb_forum_summary.cgi
It says" $_ =~ s//$replace/g;

That is not in 6.2.1 what do I have to look for?

I simply skept this part in

ubb_forum.cgi and ubb_forum_summary.cgi hope is ok.....

I got mixed up with so many posts . Can anyone tell me if I can install this hack proper in order to work with ubb accelerator?
And the next question is where can I find specific instructions to install it?

no we're still waiting for e@sy to update this hack so it works with accelerator. You can install it meantime but you'll get hits only for the first time someone views a post, ie when its .cgi

E@sy how's it coming along? We're all waiting on tenterhooks!!

It works great, but is it possible to center the "Hit's" (which I changed to "Views" already) in your Forum Summary, instead of it being to the left?? (Like the "Replies")

I've tried changing

to

in public_forum_summary.pl
but that doesnt seem to work.

Thanks in advance

that's one thing I did manage to figure out.
In your control panel modification wordlets, look for hit_column and change text to:

Hits

I'd really like to install this hack on my forum but I haven't got a clue what I'm looking for on that site lol. Can someone point me to where I can download it?
Thank you

*** e @ s y *** w h e r e *** a r e *** y a ?!?

still waiting with baited breath on that update...........

i have installe this hack..i don't use php accelerator and all work..but i have one problem:

now in folder column i have poll icons and not standar folder icons...

please help me to resolve this bug.

thx

view my problem here:

http://www.consoleforum.it/db/cgi/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=forum;f=1

Inka, if you don't hack ubb_forum_summary.cgi and ubb_forum, it won't work with cache.

Try the following instead: (untested)

Use IM hack's ubb_lib_files.cgi instructions, but in 'add below', add the following:
$name = &ProcessVIEWS($name); $name is $ThisHTML, $thisvar or $str, depending on what's on IM hack.

No more work on this hack by e@sy.

ok
so LK can you give us the solution you have which is working perfectly in your forum?

easy, you should continue working on it, IMO... But if you don't want to...

But if you have made your decision, can anyone post here this hack's zip file as ubbdev.de is down?

i can post it for you LK i still have it on my hard drive.

Download

Thank you ClanKiller

Is this hack ubb accel compatible yes or no???

nope

The hit hack works fine, altough with no accelerator. But the statistictable looks like this:

--- edit --- it's ok, collspan=3

I installed it, and it works pretty much fine, except for one little thing, on the forum summary page, it doesn't display the amount of hits, it is just blank, but at the top of the table it does display hits...?

I want to announce that I finally made peace with myself.
I never gonna see this mod working with ubb accelerator

Thanks

mebbe I can post it in here

LK, the beta gives me these errors for forums that do not have views yet is this:

What makes you, You? (Allen)

Thanks LK

Works Perfect LK!!!!!

Thanks guys

Maurice, rehack ubb_forum_summary.cgi, it says ( hits) instead of (X hits).

I rehacked it and WOW I didn't even knew that was in there.

Thanks [Linked Image]

....don't work with cache

I was wondering why a first im appears twice, now i see the first hit makes 2 hits to. (???)

EnRiCo ,
I have chache turned on, works without any problems

They work alright, but all hits are gone as i surf to the topics and go back to the intro. Then they appear, and a little later all hits are gone again.

Variables,

rehack the ubb_forum_summary.cgi, I think you had the same problem as I had.

Dat moet werken

Ok, i'll try again!

werken zal het

[code][/code]I have a chatcount notice in this block. I don't know where to put this:

#&ServeFromCache("ubb_files/summary/summary.html");
my $filename = "$vars_config{NonCGIPath}/cache-$cache_cookie/ubb_files/summary/summary.html";

if ((-e $filename) && (-s $filename) && ($vars_misc{use_cache} ne "no")) {
my $file = &OpenFileAsString($filename);
$file = &ProcessVIEWS($file);
print &FilterPNTF($file);
exit(0);
} else {

why is my forum summary hits not displaying?

Got a bit of a problem here, I need to uninstall easy's hit hack before I can install LK's modified version, but I'm not sure which of easy's (1.07e or 3.10) I have installed!
I don't have the zip file anymore, when I compared it to ClanKiller's download link on page 7 of this topic its not the same so I'm assuming it must be 1.07e I have installed. Can anyone post a link to this version so I can uninstall? Easy's website is down.

Hello all!

Vars, after the chatcount line (twice), add "$file = &ProcessVIEWS($file);".

BigMrC, I'm sure that you don't have 1.07e installed.

I installed the 1.07e and it seems that it won't count views for my private forums. Is there a fix for this or maybe something I just overlooked? It workd fine for the rest of my board.

I have installed treffer1_07e.mhx in my 6.2.1 UBB
The problem I have is that it counts each view as two instead of just one.
Any ideas why is doing this?
TIA

is there a multi-hack for this?

My file is updated, now it shows forum hits, like (X hits) after the description. (forum page != topic page)

Ok, I hacked this, and it works fine in the forums (topic view pages), and also works fine in the forums summary page for forum hits, but under "last post" it just leaves me with a blank "( hits)" after the time, it doesn't seem to be grabbing the #of hits from the topic veiw pages

any help is much appreciated

LK, thank you so much for converting the hit hack so that it's accelerator friendly; I installed with the multihack file you created, and it's working like a charm.
