What these 2 plugins do: If you run webpages that are integrated with vBulletin, or includes global.php to pull stuff/stats/etc (a gallery, webtemplates, CMS etc.) your users may get the "The administrator has closed the forum for maintenance" or "server too busy" errors, when you don't want them too.

I've made this into two seperate plugins so that you can choose to bypass either of the errors if you want, rather than be all or nothing.

How it works:

On none vB pages/scripts that use vBulletin, find:

require_once('./global.php');
It may differ by using include(''global.php'), but as long as you find global.php, that's the line you want.

Add above it:

define('BYPASS_INACTIVE_ERROR', 1);
define('BYPASS_BUSY_ERROR', 1);
Once you import the plugin file, simply activate or deactivate the plugins:

1. Bypass forum busy error for non-vB pages
2. Bypass forum inactive error for non-vB pages

Activating both plugins will bypass the busy and inactive errors, activating one will just bypass that error. This will not affect your forum, just the scripts that you modified with the code above. (But you can do the same on vB scripts, if you want to)
