Yes,

Super easy to install,
Thank you for this nice hack..

[TheBlackPoet]

This is a very, very cool addition to my site. It shows my members that my forum is not a fly-by-night poetry site... (even though i can create any date i wish)...
thanks for this hack..

[paul41598]

will this work on 3.5? ;)

[guatdad]

AWESOME...works perfect!

[utw-Mephisto]

Is it like the old hack where it simply takes the year from the installation and date / time from the users local clock ?

[apollooooooo]

cheers just what i am looking for nice one mate

[xtreme-mobile]

great been looking for this for a long time :D

[OziloZ]

<div align="right">$cybonlinecountup</div>

i am using like this.I think thats much beter :)

<div align="center">$cybonlinecountup</div>

[rasp187]

I have this set up right underneath my "What's Going On" block and it's great. Thanks!

[ChurchMedia]

Very cool! I think I've installed almost all of your hacks :)

Is there a way to add "Months" or even "Years" as an option? Our forum has been online since 2000, so it looks like this:

The CMN Forum Has Been Active For 2199 Days, 19 Hours, 1 Minutes, And 22 Seconds !!

2199 days is kind of hard to calculate ;)

[KevinLiles]

Thank you

works a treat...nice addition

[colinmckinley]

Thanks Cybernetec, nice addition...can you tell me which hack you use for the clock on your forum please?

Thanks :)

[Valter]

It is not hack. I've added it manually.

[Lonny]

What about SEO? :) isn't it a bad thing - the text is even before the forum description.

[WESH(UK)]

Since installing this I have noticed that the viaspy mod has stopped working but if I disable this mod in the admincp, the viaspy mod starts working fine again.

I am un-installing this for now as the viaspy mod is much more usefulfor moderators/admins

Sorry...

[Luggruff]

What part would I delete (and where) if I don't want to show seconds, minutes and hours? (kind of hard to know the exact seconds.. so that can't possibly be accurate from the date I published my forum)

And as someone else, days can get a bit much, could you add, or tell us how to add months? (:

*clicks instal*

[Valter]

It's little harder to make it showing correct months/years counts because of different number of days in different months.

If you want you can add number of years in prefix and update it once a year (if it is not too much work for you :D).

hello
the additive is made very good and fuktioniert with me very well, but only in the forum (index.php)
I have a portal vBadvanced CMPS v2.2.1 and there eigendlich everything indicated which I in navbar template adjust, only addon not.
I tested it with one simply text “foobar” if I these to place insert we it on the portal and the forum indicated. is it thus because of the variable $cybonlinecountup? looks at the pictures

[Rabbitoh Warren]

Looks good, just a couple of questions.

1. Is it possible to remove the seconds part from the count up?
2. How can I override the font settings and force it to use the <smallfont> tag?

TIA.

but can anybody help me by my cmps problem :(

[Greek Wizard]

Thanks Cybernetec, nice addition...can you tell me which hack you use for the clock on your forum please?

Thanks :)

It is not hack. I've added it manually.

Any chance you can give us a hint on how to add that clock manually?

Or maybe plan to release it as a hack (hint hint) :)

[captainslater]

Would be great if you coul add days, months or years.

eg. 4.393 hours doesn't look good.

Days are included and can not be disabled.

I've already explained why it's hard to add months and years. If every month is 30 days it would be easy but months has different number of days and script can't be adjusted to calculate it properly.

[Terminatoronly]

nice hack installed

[yellow_spider]

Very nice :)

[loonytune15]

[yaoren]

**Installed**

Works Just fine on 3.6.7

[nnjj.net]

great installed, what if I need this to appear on vBadvanced CMPS as well

[Deadly Assassin]

Nice hack, but i cant get it to appear like the screen shot. it will only show as text just under my navbar.?

Thanks

[kaptanblack]

Thanks...

[plastourgos]

thx!

[yoyoyoyo]

great installed, what if I need this to appear on vBadvanced CMPS as wellI installed this, and am having problems with it on vba cmps as well. It displays fine in the forum, but when I go to the vba index page it does not display at all and the padding around the top of the navbar (where the countup appears on my forum index page) disappears, just like the examples in this post:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1119913&postcount=21

Any idea how to get it to work in vbadvanced?

[christicehurst]

This doesn't show on my forum theme.

[atlambros83]

if i would like this to show up at the bottom of the forums where the forum statistics are listed, how would i go about doing that?

[atlambros83]

could somebody please help me with this? I've added $cybonlinecountup in the FORUMHOME template right below

<div><phrase 1="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$newuserid" 2="$newusername">$vbphrase[welcome_to_our_newest_member_x]</phrase></div>


and it all it creates is a blank line....

[atlambros83]

uninstalling due to lack of support. would have been a cool addition in the forum statistics....i'll reinstall if i can ever figure it out or get some help with it.

[aRTFuL]

No work int 3.7.0 :(
