this way would be much faster than Cache. (i was thinking of releasing this once UBB6 was in final as "UBB6 Lite" a megahack that modified everything.but god knows i know little to nothing about perl scripting, so maybe one of you people can make good use of this idea.
convert the whole UBB into CGI/SSI it would work the same way as the cache (if you sig or something changes, it changes in all posts/replies)
you know how when a new member is created it makes a file for that member?
example: 000001.cgi
well it could create a couple of more files...
1 for you sig, 1 for your post count, 1 for you avatar (can you say hack addon?) , and other's.
and they would have the same number as your member number but it would have the exstension .txt or .html
and you could use this little code to call it
and it would show up where you want it.
i have a few other idea's...but like i said, i wanna make a megahack and i will...(once i find a perl program, or a
REEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAALLLLYY GOOD tutorial
anyways in closing, this way would save lots of loading time, seeing as the files would be in your cache and would load from your cache after a couple of visits instead of the server. all the HTML based hacks could be returned if we used this system, seeing as it brings back the HTML.
ok, that's enough typing for now.
