A request (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?p=1039329) that I happened to need ASAP so I did my first hack (be gentle!)

Inspired on vBExternal (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=83005&page=24) and live stats on header (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=95493)

1. Add the plugin to set the value of $onlineusers
2. Edit header template to add $onlineusers

If you want to put it under the logo, the same place the live stats on header (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=95493) puts it, do this:

In the header template:

Find: (ususally at the end of the template file)
<!-- content table -->
$spacer_open

$_phpinclude_output

Add Above:
<!-- Currently Active Users in Header Template -->
<table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0">
<tr>
<td>
<div align="left"><span class="smallfont"><a href="online.php$session[sessionurl_q]"><b>Online: </b> $usersonline</a>
</span></div>
</td>
<td align="left" width="20%"> </td>
</tr>
</table>
<!-- Currently Active Users in Header Template -->

Check it out (I put mine by the site logo)

Note: If your forum is very active (lucky you), your current online string gets too big. The plugin stops the gathering of user names when the string reaches 80 charaters. If you want more than that, just edit the plugin and at the bottom find
while($User = $db->fetch_array($UsersOnline) and strlen($Data)<80){

and change the 80 to your preferred size

Hi

You would need to use this <div align="left"><span class="smallfont"><b>Online: </b> $totalonline</a>

In place of
<div align="left"><span class="smallfont"><a href="online.php$session[sessionurl_q]"><b>Online: </b> $usersonline</a>

I just tested what i put and it works

Hope this helps :)

Anyway to make the usernames links to the users profiles? I tried, but no dice.

OK, this works on my 3.5.4 (http://forums.ffproject.net/)

Go to the Plugin Editor, find the online_users plugin (under parse_templates)

FIND
$Data .= $glue.$User['username'];

REPLACE WITH
$Data .= $glue."<a href='/member.php?u=".$User['userid']."'>".$User['username']."</a>";


Hopefully it also works on 3.6 :D
