I used this mod for a few weeks and then removed it because it seemed to really drag the forum down... you could see it referencing mods.infostrides.com as the pages loaded. I'm still experiencing this problem although the mod has been removed. The forum also seems to be referencing something at tynt.com as well.

It significantly slowed down the loading speed. Yes, registered with tynt.com. You're not understanding me here. I have removed the mod via the package manager. *Something* is still "phoning home" back to this website on EVERY page load.

We use similar mod here and it has not affected the loading speed. What do you mean by "*Something* is still phoning home back to this website on EVERY page load"? Can you share your website address here?

Maybe you should have mentioned somewhere that the mod phones home data to your server, which is absolutely not necessary. You are aggravating data without actively telling users of your mod that you do so.

What puts insults next to injury is that your server is awfully slow and can cause page load times of around 10 seconds, which explains the previous user's problem.

For anyone not wanting to use this mod: Simply install the Global / Headers Footers mod, get your Tynt js code and put it in the footer.

Thanks for providing more insight into this. This is well-noted and will be considered in next update of the mod.

Hello there everyone!
Congratulations for your very nice job...  :)

Iam running SMF 2.0 RC3 forum and iam trying to install the Tynt-SMF Tracer Mod v1.0
At the beggining of the installation i have an Error in Package Installation.
This is the error:

Execute Modification  ./Themes/default/index.template.php  Test failed
Add Before ./Themes/default/index.template.php


Anyway, i try to do the installation manually and i figure out that in :
./Themes/default/index.template.php
Cannot find the :
// Output any remaining HTML headers. (from mods, maybe?)
And  add before the :
[i]
//Tynt-SMF Tracer Mod Starts Here
if (!empty($modSettings['tynt_on']) && !empty($modSettings['tynt_userid']) && isset($modSettings['tynt_linkprefix']))
echo '
    <script type="text/javascript">tyntVariables = {"ap":"', $modSettings['tynt_linkprefix'] . '"};</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://mods.theinfostrides.com/scripts/Tracer.js?user=', $modSettings['tynt_userid'] . '"></script>';

//Tynt-SMF Tracer Mod Ends Here [/i]


Any suggestions?

This comments "// Output any remaining HTML headers. (from mods, maybe?)" must be in your index.Template.php. If you don't see it then, you might probably deleted it while you were doing previous manual editing on the template.

The comments : // Output any remaining HTML headers. (from mods, maybe?)
according to manual installation must be at ./Themes/default/index.template.php but i cannot find them.
So any opinion where to paste the:
//Tynt-SMF Tracer Mod Starts Here
   if (!empty($modSettings['tynt_on']) && !empty($modSettings['tynt_userid']) && isset($modSettings['tynt_linkprefix']))
      echo '
      <script type="text/javascript">tyntVariables = {"ap":"', $modSettings['tynt_linkprefix'] . '"};</script>
   <script type="text/javascript" src="http://mods.theinfostrides.com/scripts/Tracer.js?user=', $modSettings['tynt_userid'] . '"></script>';

????
Any solution???

Ok good. But you need to resolve the missing comments, otherwise, you will still face some challenges with installing other mods that may require it.
