Website Optimizer for MyBB

In the mybb_plugin folder of the Website Optimizer Download package, you can find the file mybb_multivar.php which is a MyBB Plugin.

After installing the Website Optimizer, upload mybb_plugin/mybb_multivar.php to your MyBB plugins directory. Then Activate/Install the plugin in your MyBB Control Panel.

The plugin is called Multivar.

The next step is to go to the Configuration -> Settings and select Website Optimizer Settings. Here you need to enter the URL of multivar.php that is in the Website Optimizer Directory.

Also, set the ID of the Group of Elements as defined in the Website Optimizer Groups Admin page (this is likely to be 1). Only one Group of Elements is supported per Forum.

And Save Settings.

Now the plugin is active and able to communicate with the Website Optimizer Script.

Next, you need to insert Place Holders in your Theme Templates for where you want the Elements that are being optimized to appear.

You can find the Templates under the Templates & Style Tab

For example, locate the Default Templates. Here you can Edit the Header Templates and Footer Templates.

The placeholder is added as an HTML comment in the following format:

<!– elementn –>

Where n is an Integer ID number for the Element as defined in the Website Optimizer Elements Admin page.

Now, when you view your Forum, the Variations of the Elements should be shown.
