Default Re: Need help with code

Steve

Thanks for your guidance on this.

I confess I no longer use that module myself for the very reasons you state. It doubled the size of my DB in 18 months. Nowadays my hosting at Krystal.co.uk gives me much more user-friendly output.

However, the Advanced Statistics module _is_ there already in X-Cart and has the advantage for people not used to programming that it doesn't have to be coded. In fairness to X-Cart, it's pretty easy to save Advanced Statistics data output to CSV & clean it down from a menu item (Tools >> Maintenance >> Clear Statistics) every 2 or 3 months, so it doesn't necessarily have to overload the DB.
