Anybody any problems with this one?

I think it should work nicely. I had it operational for almost a year.

It's tested on mambo 4.5.2.3 and Joomla 1.0.X

This sounds like a configuration error.

Please make sure that all fields are correct.

If you have a table prefix you also need to change the user and session field.

don't use absolute paths. http://gggsfmldksqmfks/forum should work fine.

Hope this helps

[Ramsesx]

Thank you stonyarc, but I used the prefix already:
VB3usertable = vb3_user
VB3sessiontable = vb3_session
url to your vb3 = http://www.mydomain.de/forum
second url = http://www.mydomain.de/forum/member.php
The database user/pw are correct.

I think you may have to change something in the php file for your setup

The table prefix is needed for some other queries to.
I'll change to mod so it will take on the prefix as a setting for all tables

quick fix for you

open mod_vbonlineusers.php

look for
$my_posts = mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(*) as PTOTALFOUND from post");
$my_threads = mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(*) as TTOTALFOUND from thread");
$my_users = mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(*) as UTOTALFOUND from user");

change to

$my_posts = mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(*) as PTOTALFOUND from vb3_post");
$my_threads = mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(*) as TTOTALFOUND from vb3_thread");
$my_users = mysql_query("SELECT COUNT(*) as UTOTALFOUND from $VB3_USERS_TABLE");

Save and upload

That should help you out till I make the update

[Ramsesx]

Now it's fine, only the path to the forum is still pointing to http://www.mydomain.de/cms/forums instead http://www.mydomain.de/forum.
Btw. where can I change the phrases?
Thank you very much for your quick support :)

[topsoftware]

[gameslover]

Hello,

First thanks for this great hack :banana:

However I have a little problem. I have my website under Joomla on a server A and my forum under Vb on a server B. Is there a way to use your hack with that configuration or joomla and vb have to be on the same server ?

Thanks you for your answer :)

If your mysql server vb is setup to accept remote connections and the host from joomla is in the "allowed" IP it should work.

[stonyarc]

Don't forget to update to the latest version.

It's a bit easier to work with

[Ramsesx]

If a user have choosen to be invisible, this module is still showing them.

The query can be modified to exclude them
