There has been a fair bit of bad press about the non-validation of the code. It pertains to anyone using an SEO system which usually requires XHTML to validate.

I have gone through the code for you on various sites that use the mod and the general errors appear to be.

Error 1: character "<" is the first character of a delimiter but occurred as data.

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Error 2: there is no attribute "onload".

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)

Error 3: there is no attribute "frameBorder".

Error 4: document type does not allow element "iframe" here.

Error 5: document type does not allow element "iframe" here.

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)

Error 6: XML Parsing Error: StartTag: invalid element name.

I would imagine the popularity of this will shoot up tons once it validates simply because the sites that use SEO are going to be more inclined to use it and they are far more popular then most non-SEO sites.

Still an issue if you run cron manually no matter the version of vB and everyone using the latest is affected especially if you are using the mysqli module rather than mysql. It seems everything still works though with this error but here is a hotfix until its updated. To see, run the scheduled task gXboxLive Update manually and you will get this error.

On line 85 in includes/cron/miner.gxboxlive.php

Find:

Replace with:

Error will be gone. Quite surprised the code has been like this for this long LOL. That is standard code and nothing was wrong with it, in most cases it would work but not with vBulletins setup. Hopefully this will be fixed in future updates.

Also I would recommend setting up the cron to run on 10 minute intervals or less even rather than every page load. Current setup is

This is not good if you have a lot of id's to process, many queries every page load, performance will lag big time. My setup

No need having a crap load of queries every time a page loads. It will all update none the less even on a 12 hour cycle.

Hopefully this helps anyone still having issues.

My 2 cents.

It uses the exact same structure as the vBulletin install.....

You are actually increasing the queries when it runs by doing that. The cron file itself contains the timing needed to spread the queries out over the course of 24 hours, running it fewer will increase the amount of queries needed for that run.

My thought was with boards with heavy usage could have quite a few per page loads but I see what you mean as it runs in background. It was just a thought however. In my case, I'd rather have less queries run per page load and have them run at a less frequent interval. Just a suggestion to those with large communities.

PS good script. Thx!

Is there any way to limit this to just one game? Like just pull the gamer score/stats for madden? If not, does anyone know of any other hacks that do this?

Thanks
Great Mod!

Each time I load the index of my forum the leaderboard fails to load the avatars/gamer pics of those on it and it hangs the index.

I am not sure. My first thought would be that maybe the javascript files weren't uploaded to the correct location? Double check your install. Otherwise, I will look into this when I can find the time, I haven't seen this issue before.

I'd REALLY love to use this, but I can't get past the +4 extra queries run on forumhome index with all index-display features turned off...

I'm still hoping you can find what might be causing this?

You have SEO Rules?

[Jason UK]

Your best bet if you use an SEO product is to actually restrict the use of gXboxLive to logged in users and that way your pages won't show up as non-validating. As rule of thumb, keep most mods away from the guest users because most of them harm SEO with bloat.

I need rewrite Rules

I need just al rule for /gxboxlive.php and the sides.
