Sometimes you wonder to yourself:
"Is it my server, or the ubb"
Answer: Sometimes the ubb, unless your server blows.
This little (actually, large) code modification to ubb_library2.pl, will load the threads 30% faster on most servers, and on some, up to 50% faster!!
Its in beta for alot of reasons.
It is a large code change, i cant be held responsible for any problems that may severely damage your ubb topics.
ALWAYS MAKE BACKUPS OF HACKED FILES!!Infopop note!: If this code modification is used in any upcoming version of ubb, I request full credit and an infopop mouse pad.

(Inside joke)
NOTE: This code is far from done. I will not release it now. I am working on making a mod for forumdisplay and a similar mod to Ultimate.cgi. I'll keep you updated.
Get it here.

It may also be worth checking if it's faster to use
This one certainly is cleaner code.
To be honest once I got my hands on the UBB source I was less than impressed by the code quality... far less than impressed.

I get this error when i try replying to a post after installing this mod.:
Error including required files: Can't declare substitution in my at D:blah...blah...blahubb_library2.pl line 186, near "s/UBBrandomX/$RandomNumber/isg;" Make sure these files exist, permissions are set properly, and paths are set correctly.
NBA:
Try using:
if ($Header) {
$Header2 = $Header;
$Header2 =~ s/UBBrandomX/$RandomNumber/isg;
$Header2 =~ s/UBBrandomY/$RandomNumber2/isg;
}
if ($Footer) {
$Footer2 = $Footer;
$Footer2 =~ s/UBBrandomX/$RandomNumber/isg;
$Footer2 =~ s/UBBrandomY/$RandomNumber2/isg;
}
instead. That is the same thing that I came across and this fixed it.
MM:
Woo hoo. Much faster.
Parker
Thanks Parker!
Perfect!
Now...can we speed up postings.cgi?
Great hack MM!
Here ya go Exstatica....
***********************************
****Speeding Up Thread Loading****
This hack speeds up thread loading.
open ubb_library2.pl.
find:
sub CreateThreadHTML {
my($ForumIs) = shift;
my($ThreadFile) = shift;
my($ArrayStart) = shift;
my($PageNumber) = shift;
$PageNumber = $PageNumber + 0;
$ArrayStart = $ArrayStart + 0;
($trash, $number) = split("Forum", $ForumIs);
$ThreadNumber = substr($ThreadFile, 0, 6);
if ($AllowSearch eq "FALSE") {
$SearchOption = "";
} else {
$SearchOption = qq(|
search );
}
replace that whole big block with this:
sub CreateThreadHTML {
my ($ForumIs, $ThreadFile, $ArrayStart, $PageNumber) = @_;
($trash, $number) = split("Forum", $ForumIs);
$ThreadNumber = substr($ThreadFile, 0, 6);
my $SearchOption = ($AllowSearch eq 'FALSE') ? '' : qq(|
search );
then find:
if ($RandomNumber) {
$RandomNumber = $RandomNumber + 2;
$RandomNumber2 = $RandomNumber2 + 2;
} else {
@digit = (0..9);
srand(time);
$num1 = rand(10);
$num2 = rand(10);
$num3 = rand(10);
$num4 = rand(10);
$RandomNumber = ("$digit[$num1]" . "$digit[$num2]" . "$digit[$num3]" . "$digit[$num4]");
$RandomNumber2 = $RandomNumber + 1004;
}
replace with:
if ($RandomNumber) {
$RandomNumber += 2;
} else {
@digit = (0..9);
srand(time);
$num1 = rand(10);
$num2 = rand(10);
$num3 = rand(10);
$num4 = rand(10);
$RandomNumber = ($digit[$num1] . $digit[$num2] . $digit[$num3] . $digit[$num4]);
$RandomNumber2 = $RandomNumber + 1004;
}
find:
if ($DisplayRegistration eq "NO") {
$RegLinkHere = "";
} else {
$RegLinkHere = qq(
profile |
register |);
}
replace with:
my $RegLinkHere = ($DisplayRegistration eq 'NO') ? '' : qq(|
register );
find:
if ($ProfileNumber ne "") {
replace with a simple line like:
if ($ProfileNumber) {
DO THAT 6 TIMES OR SO!!!!
find:
if ($Header) {
$Header2 = $Header;
$Header2 =~ s/UBBrandomX/$RandomNumber/isg;
$Header2 =~ s/UBBrandomY/$RandomNumber2/isg;
}
if ($Footer) {
$Footer2 = $Footer;
$Footer2 =~ s/UBBrandomX/$RandomNumber/isg;
$Footer2 =~ s/UBBrandomY/$RandomNumber2/isg;
}
replace that with:
if ($Header) {
my $Header =~ s/UBBrandomX/$RandomNumber/isg;
my $Header =~ s/UBBrandomY/$RandomNumber2/isg;
}
if ($Footer) {
my $Footer =~ s/UBBrandomX/$RandomNumber/isg;
my $Footer =~ s/UBBrandomY/$RandomNumber2/isg;
}
That saves plenty of CPU time right in that small code there.
There is so much we could do to this **** code here.
I can do this to other files too, but thats what ted is doing now.
THIS IS EXPECTED TO BE UPDATED SOON!!!!!!!
******************************************
MM,
It would be really cool if you could do postings.cgi, and I for one would be very appreciative!
Got the same general error
http://www.subzeroland.com
I don't know what's wrong... it worked for me and it certainly is valid Perl. Actually I was thinking myself a log there - the real clean version would look like so:
------------------
print pack "b*",join '',map '0'x$_.'1',split m||,'112111001020031006240200'.
'10100010310041011202200661112022003010651014010301011011202200';
dont know whats wrong. Works fine, and i see no errors.
postings.cgi is next.

Cheers MM great mod as always

Hmm...by replacing this, there is no longer a 'profile' link nor a 'register' link. And the acronym for the register text is the same as what's supposed to be for the search text. Also, the search text is no longer a link. I ended up fixing this manually, but you may want to change this in the file, MM.

No 99% is high, i just made a few suggestions of things I do to improve speed on some of my stuff.
Removing extraneous tests, removing doubling up on variables, moving to faster operators where necessary (and using the benchmark module to test).
Basic stuff, and i only looked at a routine or two for about 10 minutes. Nothing earth shattering.
So any speed increases you see, are all Mastermind's hard work!

}
All new code addons will be added to the bottom ~MM~
************************************
Just put the time and date of your latest fix either at the top or bottom of the text file.... that way I can click on the link and see if it is newer than the one I have without comparing the files to see if there is a change... kinda like a version number.
You could do something like:
v1-11-07-00-12:30pm
the next one could be:
v1-11-07-00-3:40pm
Once you get a "final" draft, we can give it a real documenting and post it to the database. If new changes are made after that, we can begin putting a bug fix/ change note at the bottom of the header info.

My Site The only difference between a fool and an eccentric are your beliefs in their ideas.
Yeah, UBB is a poorly coded piece of *cough*. If you want to see what it SHOULD look like, have a look at an Ultraboard (UBB-inspired imitation).. it has database access, and decent coding... of course, it's absolutely impossible to modify without a degree in Perl, but nevermind.
I've heard UBB 6 is supposed to be a lot cleaner.
Question: I'm still running a slightly outdated UBB version (5.45c) so I don't know if this is built in to subsequent releases, but
this probably WAS the best mod I ever installed. If it's not in the currently circulating UBBs, I suggest you add it to your mod, MasterMind.
I fixed all the links and included Parker's header/footer fix in the code I posted yesterday.

so... can someone tell me what the link is to the latest version, which fixes all the problems with the "register" and "search" links and everything? thanks.
Could someone that has installed this please check their General Variables??
After installing it I lost the majority of the control panel controls. The major ones- (url, absolute paths) were there, but some of the others, (mostly toggle controls) were missing- the ones in the second column.
After uninstalling the hack I was able to access the GV's again, all of them- so I am assuming it has something to do with it?

Yes- there are several hacks installed on my beta forum.
The ones that would add a line to cpanel2.cgi would be the newsfader hack alone I think (the toggle in the first column there worked fine, but the second column toggles were all gone).... Offhand I can't think of anything else that would have changed it. I will have to recheck my log at home.
------------------
My Site The only difference between a fool and an eccentric are your beliefs in their ideas.
I think this is an issue in my coding elsewhere. I found an error I have to take care of ASAP on my beta forum. I will let you know once I filter that issue out.
------------------
My Site The only difference between a fool and an eccentric are your beliefs in their ideas.
i had the same problem with the control panel. on the second or third page someone (i forget who) had posted the entire hack in their msg, and it had some stuff they had added, including -at the end- one line that edited my radio or something like that. cpanel uses ubb_lib2 to create the radio buttons it uses, and that line was bad, thats why the radio buttons all dissapeared in the control panel, take that line (with radio in it) out, or just intall from the current file mastermind has up and it will be fine.
So
that's where my radio buttons in general settings went... they all disappeared this afternoon, and I never could figure out what happened...

------------------
My Site The only difference between a fool and an eccentric are your beliefs in their ideas.
Well, I'm really glad more than only me had this problem. I have confidence it can be fixed now. But if I delete any of the lines below, I get an error when I go to General Settings:
sub InputRadioRow {
my ($RowColor, $FieldName, $Notes, $InputField, $Cols, $Rows) = @_;
if ($Notes ne "") {
$Notes = "
$Notes";
}
What do I need to remove? I've tried all of it, just the sub row, and both the sub and my row... Please help me out...
I have to correct myself. The hack worked great, but with bugs.
It wouldn't let me into curtain control panels, like forums or User Permissions. It kept saying No record of that username. I could however get into General Settings, and announcments. I took the hack outand it worked fine again. This completly confuses me to why it did this, but then again I am new to this.
------------------
Love life, feel life,,be life.
This hack works great at my board.
Not sure what the radio button issue is about. Where should I look for this?

Our radio button problem was in general settings...
Just put the sub back to like it was:
sub InputRadioRow {
my $RowColor = shift;
my $FieldName = shift;
my $Notes = shift;
my $RadioStuff = shift;
if ($Notes) {
$Notes = "

You are correct Ghoste, it was in an interim version yesterday...
ubb_library2.pl is required in most of the ubb files, and any of them that use that sub routine for radio buttons was affected...

I've been following this thread since the beginning. I had the hack installed and it seemed to work fine. As I continued to follow the thread I made some of the suggested fixes and lo and behold......I managed to really screw it up. The help I get from this board is greatly appreciated and I would like to get this mod set up on my site again.
Could some one please direct me to the complete code mods needed to get this thing going? The one at
http://platform-z.hypermart.net/thread.txt does not include the fixes mentioned in the thread.
Thanks in advance.
