Site Life Status

What does this product do?
This product will add a Site Life Status info area, including Site Startup Date, Site Age and a Pagehits counter to your forumhome What's Going On box.

Version Information:
Version 1.0.1 --Initial release for vB3.7
Version 1.0.2 --Fixed changed variable in the template manual edit code.

Installation overview:
Products to install: (1)
Templates to edit: (1) - Optional
Files to Upload: (2)
Images to upload (1)

Installation Instructions:
1. Upload the forumhome_pagehits.txt file to your domain root directory.

2. Upload life_status.gif to the images/misc folder on your site.

3. Upload site_life.js to the clientscript folder on your site.

4. Go to your Admin CP
Scroll down to 'Plugin System'
Click 'Manage Products'
Click 'Add/Import Product'
Click the 'Browse' button, and locate the product-site_lifestatus.xml file on your computer

5. Go to your Admin CP
Step 3: Go to your Admin CP -> vBulletin Options -> Help Site Life Status and set the following options:
--Site Life Status Enable: Enable/Disable the Site Life Status.
--Site Life Status Startup Date: Enter your site startup date.
--Site Life Status Automatic Template Replace: Click yes to have the template automatically edited.
--Site Life Status Pagehits File Path: Enter the DOCUMENT_ROOT path for the forumhome_pagehits.txt file.

If you don't know what your DOCUMENT_ROOT path is, go to the Admin CP and in the left column look for:

'Maintenance -> View PHP Info -> Apache Environment -> DOCUMENT_ROOT' and you should see something like this:

/home/boofo/public_html

So the line you would enter for this setting would be:

/home/boofo/public_html/forumhome_pagehits.txt

Substituting the path you found for your site.

NOTE: You must chmod 777 the forumhome_pagehits.txt file so it can be written to when updating the pagehits.

NOTE: You are done unless you opted to do the manual template install. If you chose Site Life Status Automatic Template Replace, there is no need to do the manual template edit in the install file.

Done!
Enjoy!

this is an old version, can someone grab the newest version

you make it sound out of date, you do realise the only difference is phrases instead of template text? There is almost no difference, it is such a minor thing.
 
Hi. I have installed evrything as it is instructed and It's working fine.. but the problem I am facing is the life_status.gif picture is not showing on the Forum. I double checked the image directory and the picture is over there.. But Still not showing up the picture.. Can Someone help me on this . Thanks.
 
I would appreciate you removing this hack from this site as well as any other of my hacks as this is Boofo, the author of this hack and I have not authorized any of my hacks to be posted outside of the org.

Thank you,
Boofo
