Turn Off - Show Users browsing forum

[stryka]

Current Version is PL1...

I am unable to remove the option where it counts how many users are browsing a particular forum..

I went to the admin panel and deselected "Display the active users browsing the forum"... but the count is still there..

I wanna remove this cuz my cpu usage is getting up there...i already did optimization... but can't turn that option off..

lemme know if i am in the right spot...

Admin Control Panel > vBulletin Options > vBulletin Options > Forum Display Options (forumdisplay) > Show Users Browsing Forums

Enabling this option will show the current users browsing a particular forum on forumdisplay.php while adding one query. This can have an effect on performance. The Alphabetical option requires more resources than the random option.

Note, this is for forumdisplay, not index.php

Sorry.. then how do i turn off the index display..

Almost the same, except for forumdisplay it is forum home :

Admin Control Panel > vBulletin Options > vBulletin Options > Forums Home Page Options

Still no luck.... the last suggestion is for hiding the member active list that appears with the birthdays at the bottom...

but i am still seeing "Forumname (21 viewing)" on the index page... should i leave it or could it potentially take up resources for that query... i do have a lot of forums....
