The purpose of assigning custom folders/items is really for stuff you like, for example smilies/other forum icons, modification static files (like vbshout has javascript) and so on, really intended for files that don't change often since as it stands syncs need to be performed manually

Hi,

Are the managed folders recursive or do I need to list them individually even if I list the parent folder?

Regarding avatars and profile pics, I hadn't noticed they weren't on the CDN. Boo, this seems like a simple change? I guess I can't just add the customavatars directory to managed folders?

Last, about the attachments. Yeah I had realized after I posted the first time the permission issue. Still, this is definitely something I'd like to overcome. I am thinking out loud --- classifying attachments two ways, images and everything else. Bottom line is, I am willing to cache images on CDN that aren't guest viewable. If someone takes the time to figure out the URL, then they'll end up being able to view the image. Non-image attachments can't exist on CDN due to the permission issue, at least with an origin pull model. Now, back to images, it would basically call for determining if the user has permission to the image before the image URL is written out via php, so if they do have access let's use the CDN URL. For instance, a guest can see thumbnails but can't view the full image on my board. In this case we'd need to not use the CDN URL.

Anyway, no doubt you are a brilliant programmer so I hope you can come up with a method to allow for image attachments to be made available on the CDN. Just looking at the last day of usage since I did the CDN, I am only going to use around 30GB a month, leaving what I estimate to be at least 200GB or more bandwidth "on the table" that could be on the CDN but isn't.

Good job.

MaxCDN is only $39.95 for 1TB which is really good value and they use SSD which is lightning fast

I just signed up to MaxCDN just now.

I just uninstalled the old CDN (Amazon S3) in the CDN Integration, and I am trying to figure out how to set up the CDN Integration with MaxCDN now ^^

I believe I have to choose the Pull/Mirror one, but from there I am not sure what to do.

I am up to "Your Origin Pull/Mirror URL" What is that? or Where do I get that from/or Set that up.

Thanks.

If you are a member of WHT, you can also use the WHT coupon code to save another 20 or 25% (I forget).

The origin pull URL is like "http://cdn.yoursite.com", it is determined based on your DNS. Then you setup a CNAME in your DNS so that cdn points to the maxcdn address that they gave you when you created the account.

There is a small confusion in the setup if someone want to setup their own custom CDN domain with azure :
Let me explain

I have setup a custom subdomain with windows Azure : static.mysite.com aliased to mysite.blob.core.windows.net

now when filling in the information to setup the CDN the first box asks for the blub name which is in my case let's say it's called mysite

the third box is asking for the " Blob URL/Azure CDN " which should be static.mysite.com since it's aliased to mysite.blob.core.windows.net

what happened is the VbOptimise concatenate the blub name with blob.core.windows.net in this case ----> static.mysite.blob.core.windows.net

Confused yet!!

My point is the description in the first box should say input your blub name OR your cdn sub-domain So I would know to input static in the first box and not mysite

and the third box should say enter blob.core.windows.net (which it does) OR your site URL in my case mysite.com

So when using custom URLs i get static.mysite.com

I know I confused you but I will detailed it and post it again but I hope you understood when I'm saying

Oh the MaxCdn guys above are correct about MAXCDN you should take a look to automate integration. They are already eying the integration of their service with Vbulletin http://www.maxcdn.com/vbulletin-cdn.php

I looked around for their API but it's not available in their public webpage, perhaps the members/subscribers have access ?! if so forward what you got to @Deceptor !

Although I'm happy with Azure, MaxCdn looks good for video delivery (here is another Idea: a video mod )
