    [Any Version] vBulletin Configuration Constants

    I've managed to scrape up some defines/constants for use in vBulletin's config file (config.php)


    This forces all userinfo queries to include avatar information.
    define('AVATAR_ON_NAVBAR', 1);

    This bypasses the file checks, e.g that install.php one you get after installation. This is potential security risk, shouldn't be enabled in production.
    define('BYPASS_FILE_CHECK', 1);

    This defines whether vBulletin is in demo mode or not.
    define('DEMO_MODE', 1);

    Our famous saviour for when modifications go bad.... thank you hooks
    define('DISABLE_HOOKS', 1);

    This forces all the hooks to be used, however, the above overrides this.
    define('FORCE_HOOKS', 1);

    This disables mail being sent out from your server.
    define('DISABLE_MAIL', 1);

    Sends pasword as raw text over HTTP as POST instead of hashing with MD5. Useful in integrations such as LDAP etc.
    define('DISABLE_PASSWORD_CLEARING', 1);

    Disable the reloading of the Admin Control Panel after import/installation of
    a product
    define('DISABLE_PRODUCT_REDIRECT', 1);

    Echoes/sends crom logs to the browser... not sure who'd want that but hey!
    define('ECHO_CRON_LOG', 1);

    Windows servers may delinate this way.
    define('FORCE_MAIL_CRLF', 1);

    This automatically procedes through things such as setup, so you can get a cup of coffee without clicking "Click to continue/Next Step"
    define('HIDEPROCEED', 1);

    Secondary usergroup does not override primary setting.
    define('MEMBERLIST_INCLUDE_SECONDARY', 1);

    Disable the Javascript-based disabling of criteria in the notice add/edit code
    define('NOTICE_CRITERIA_JS', 0);

    Disable javascript progress meter in Admin Control Panel
    define('NO_IMPORT_DOTS', 1);

    Use EXPLAIN syntax for SQL queries; good for checking during optimization
    define('POST_EXPLAIN', 1);

    Don't use a vBulletin database connection; good for integration if your CMS has it's own DB connector
    define('SKIPDB', 1);

    Reduces the number of cookie headers returned - IIS might be more efficient
    define('SKIP_AGGRESSIVE_LOGOUT', 1);

    Skip check of POST request against the referrer domain whitelist. Potential security risk against CSRF!
    define('SKIP_REFERRER_CHECK', 1);

    EDIT: 29th Aug 09 - Revised define('DISABLE_PASSWORD_CLEARING', 1); with information from Jobe1986 - Thanks
