Globals for Admin Set Limits -- For Constructing Real Time Stats for User
Hi,

It would be really nice if Globals for per user actual status of the Admin Set limits like:
  • limits_address_groups_max
  • limits_address_max
  • limits_autoreplies
  • limits_filters_max
  • limits_folders_max
  • limits_forwards
  • limits_max_addressees
  • limits_max_emails_per_day
  • limits_msgs_max
  • limits_pop_max
  • limits_sigs_max
  • limits_spam_max
  • limits_uploads_max
  • limits_uploads_size_total


Would be nice for constructing a online stats for the user to know against each. For the last two Charlie@Chaz has already helped by providing Globals which has helped in constructing a bar graph for the same when the user is attaching attachments to mail while composing.

If globals could be made available for being used as template tags then similar stats graph could be created for the user. This in effect would enable the user to be well informed of the account status online wrt these Admin Set limits, which currently comes up as an "error" only when the limits are exceeded.

Thnx

Hi,

Could construct the 'graphical stats' on major part of the list (the relevant portion of the screen shot attached as displayed by include in folders_include.htm) and the list is now down to getting the user used information pertainign to following admin set limits:
  • limits_filters_max
  • limits_folders_max




The 'alt' tag is made available on the "Red" portion (except for the Renewal Graph being of countdown nature as compared to 'count up' for others), though with if's it could be made to be available on the "Green" portion of the bar graphs. This is a bit of a "Cosmetic" exercise but it would help a user to be well aware of the status against admin set limits so that the stage of "error" being thrown at the user only upon exceeding the limits is hardly reached really unless the user is trying intentionally to test the response upon exceeding the limit(s).

Special thanx to Charlie@Chaz for having liberally helped on the globals for getting the certain user used limits for which the template tags were not available or needed handling wrt multiple units (B/KB/MB). The screen shot is attached

Thnx
