Restrict search when the server load is high

[dbembibre]

This is a 3.5 port of the OK JIMBO Version of this hack
http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=76456

This plugin allow to you disable searches when the load average reaches a defined level.
Only administrators are excempt from this.

I tested this plugin during one mounth in my forums that have 400 constants users online and work well.

Simply install as product and go to ACP->Restrict Search Config and put a load value.

The plugin work with linux, freeBSD and unix servers not in WINDOWS

Be sure that you allow access to /proc/loadavg in open_basedir in php.ini


For the next version
*Exclude Groups of the Restrictions
*Enabled Google search when the Restriction is in Effect

How does this work different from what is built within vBulletin? I know you can disable searches within the admincp :) Maybe the ability to enter your own value for the load?

[dbembibre]

Installed! Where are the options?

Admin CP->vBulletin Options ->Restrict Search Config

The unix load limit of vBulletin block the forums to new users if rich the predefined value, this is for servers with high traffic, searches on large forums can slow the server down a lot.

Ahhh it is for registrations...not for search. Roger that :)

[redtailboa]

Suggestion:
Give the ability to turn this on per group basis. For me this would work great. Supporters , Premium, moderators and the admin groups are exempt from this. Registered users and other groups are not

Nice, maybe add the ability to search via Google (or other engine if there is such a thing) when the vb search is unavailable.

[BoardTracker]

*Enabled Google search when the Restriction is in Effect

Perhaps instead of google (or as an additional option) you could enable boardtracker search for the board by combining with this mod..

What about if the other groups I have are 5,7,9 and 13? How would I put that in the last part of the code?

Also, is this working with 3.6.4?
