Installed! Thanks. :)

[ogameclub]

Installed! Thanks. This time is zero time.

[FleaBag]

This may be a stupid question but does it include time prior to installing the hack?

[tnguy3n]

no, and there's no way to know how much time they spent on your forums previously. AFAIK, vBulletin does not keep record on this stuff.

[MorrisMcD]

this is a cool hack.. I would implement it, but several users leave themselves on whos online including myself when away since we are on and off all day.. It would depress me to actually say I was on for 24 hours a day pretty much.. :)

Cool hack tho

[Shazz]

/me trys the install now

[Shazz]

I just installed it, seems to be working fine.
But....
If you were to uninstall it does it leave some querys or tables behind?

[Shazz]

I swear this isen't right
My newest member has like 3 days spent time on it and he just joined =?
And Ive been on my board longer then 3 hours and thats all I have...
Im lost

[MrPHD]

Installed and running. Thanks

[lifesourcerec]

This mod never liked me. It doesn't break down the time. Only gives a long number.

[LordDB]

tnguy3n, great hack, but, your screenshot shows you as been on your forum for:

1 week, 3 days, 23 hours

why doesn't mine show such lengths of time, as I can't believe you've been connected online at your forum that duration of time.

It only shows mine as:

38 mins, 20 secs

Do enlighten us as to what I've done wrong, or how to adjust such info.

Thx n regards

:)

same here how can we resolve this????

[JuGgOlOw22]

any one know how to fix this i cant get it back

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '*' in /home/nexte3/public_html/includes/class_core.php on line 2892

[MrPHD]

It seens you wrong edit the file, you can see ", 'lastvisit');

$this->userinfo['lastvisit'] = $this->userinfo['lastactivity'];
}
else
{

This is the line you tell an error, you can fix that unistall the hack and edit classcore.php again. Regards

Open includes/class_core.php, (1 change)

FIND:

// on this to be updated in real time.
$this->registry->db->shutdown_query("
UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user
SET lastactivity = " . TIMENOW . "
WHERE userid = " . $this->userinfo['userid'] . "
", 'lastvisit');

REPLACE WITH:

// on this to be updated in real time.
/* $this->registry->db->shutdown_query("
UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user
SET lastactivity = " . TIMENOW . "
WHERE userid = " . $this->userinfo['userid'] . "
", 'lastvisit');
*/

if(TIMENOW - $this->userinfo['lastactivity'] > $this->registry->options['cookietimeout'])
{
$newtime = '0';
}
else
{
$newtime = TIMENOW - $this->userinfo['lastactivity'];
}
$this->registry->db->shutdown_query("
UPDATE " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user
SET lastactivity = " . TIMENOW . ",
timeonboard = timeonboard + $newtime
WHERE userid = " . $this->userinfo['userid'] . "
", 'lastvisit');

if you don´t know use php well, i advice backup the original file allways, and you can backup renamed like class_core.phpold and put edited file and chmod 777.

[tnguy3n]

that's the total time I've spent on my board, and my board has been open for 1 1/2 years now. Note that your total time counts only at the point your install this hack.

[lifesourcerec]

Got it working. Looks like it was conflicting with another code.

[underESTIMATED]

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare timeonboard() (previously declared in /home/ohiosci/public_html/forum/global.php(356) : eval()'d code:4) in /home/ohiosci/public_html/forum/member.php(825) : eval()'d code on line 4

Help!?
:(

Happens when I click on a members name to see their profile, otherwise it's fine.

I missed this hack when I upgraded versions, nice to see that somewhere in all my previous coding it kept my times too! I pissed alot of people off. lol

[trd167]

installed and running thanks

Anyone able to help diagnose my issue?

It only occurs when you attempt to look at the profile of a member. :tired:

[yingzhou]

Thank for this hack! Cool!

[underESTIMATED]

Bump For A Fix.........
($hook = vBulletinHook::fetch_hook('member_complete')) ? eval($hook) : false;
That's the line it's referring to in my member.php file


($hook = vBulletinHook::fetch_hook('global_start')) ? eval($hook) : false;
That's the line it's referring to in my global.php file


I completely uninstalled this, and reinstalled it again. Still an issue.
:confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused: :confused:

[loonytune15]

Great Hack, can we have a top users list?

[Cybershaolin]

Using it but it shows information in english like day, hour etc. Is there any way to show the info in french?

[adonfun]

Thank you, installed it :)

[IrPr]

Thanks tnguy3n, Upgrading now

[GNDI]

It keeps saying I have used 0 seconds on my board

Spent Time On Board: 0 sec

[Shazz]

Spent Time On Board: 0 sec

Did you just barely install it?
The time starts when you install it

[Marc118]

Hey sweet hack.

I have it installed but I have one problem. It is showing in the user profile but not in the postbit? I edited the postbit with the codes you have in the install.txt

Thanks.

[GNDI]

I installed it yesterday, and yes, i know it won't from before this was installed.

I'm thinking is it necessary to delete cookie before it start counting?

[Invalid ID]

It's working great, but in PM it says "Spent Time On Board: 4566"

In posts the same user timing says "Spent Time On Board: 1 h 16 min 6 sec"

[Shazz]

Same goes for when your click on the post number in the right hand corner

[GNDI]

i'll think I just have to uninstall this one

[Raptor]

perfect on 3.6.4 - THANKS !

[Snake]

Is this going to work just fine on 3.6.4? No problems at all?

[Shazz]

Few bugs... that are known if you view some pages back

[Snake]

Alright I'll install this but I think it should say "3 days 20 hours 37 mins" instead of "3 day 20 hour 37 min". Any fix for this?

[maranello]

simple phrase change, it'll take u 30 seconds or less to do it yourself.

[maranello]

More important problem is, it displays a long value in postbit when you are reading PMs. Instead of saying 3 days 5 hours etc, it shows 11245. Where is the author in all this? Will he release a fixed version?

[Snake]

I don't think we'll ever see him again because his last activity on the forum was around December so yeah. But why not send him a mail? He might be able to respond back to you.

Anyway, I don't really care much about the postbit as long as it works just fine in the profile page.

Translate the corresponding parts of the hack ;)

[Boots]

if this didn't have a file mod I'd be all over it.

[Snake]

Can anyone help me with that please? I'm not sure if this is made as phrases cause I couldn't find them.

[davis31b]

Is there anyway to put a break after Spent Time On Board:?? That way it doesn't have a single number sitting out to the side & it would show everything directly underneath the phrase. Theirs no issues with it now, but it would make it look more professional. Thanks.

[BOLT]

Awesome hack. But is there a way that I can make it so only the admin can see this feature?

:confused: :confused:

[hsv z clubbie]

Thanks, just installed on http://www.eastcoastutes.com appears all ok atm....

Thanks

[tutusinghsohi]

man...thanks a lot dude..

Bump!

[davis31b]

Disregard

[airborneCAL]

Ok, everything was working fine but now the time does not change - it appears frozen. I do not know why this would have happened. The only change that has been made recently was upgrading to 3.6.5 - help please.

And for clarification - by frozen I meant that the time has stopped counting. It still displays as normal, but the time doesn't advance. Thanks for any help.

I'm not sure if you figured this out or not but if you goto your Manage Plugins then edit your "Time Spent on Board"... all the values are hard coded for day, min, hour etc, just search for these words and update accordingly. These values are wrapped between single quotes, some of the have a single quote space. Don't mess with anything with a $ in front of it :up:

[airborneCAL]

I guess I'll just have to uninstall this hack since noboby seems to know why it stopped counting time. Oh well....

[Snake]

Try re-installing the hack. It might work, you know.

[airborneCAL]

I tried re-installing it with no luck so I thought about my upgrade to 3.6.5 and found out that the class_core.php file needed to be re-coded. I guess I'll have to edit that file every time I update. No biggie.

Did you install anything recently that may have updated your core_class.php file (I think that is the file)??

Nope, the only change was updating to 3.6.5

[deezelpope]

Installed! Thank you!!:up: :D

[SnapOff Racing]

some users it says 0 days, minutes, etc...and others it accumulates day by day.

i have no idea what's wrong with it.

3.6.5

i uninstalled and reinstalled the hack, no such luck :(

[deezelpope]

I noticed in PMs and usernotes, the time is marked by seconds, assuming of course, cuz it doesn't say seconds, only...a big, long number...LOL. Fix for this?

me too

[alfaowner]

Any ideas where I can download this from? There is no file showing attached to this modification? I am looking to find out what goes into the class_core.php as my clock has stopped ticking also since my upgrade.

Thanks in advance.

[jaymullah]

is this no longer available? Under download all I see is "no files uploaded" ?

[alfaowner]

PM me, if you can give me a copy or at least the core class - thanks im a desperate for it!

[Martin-TMGRS]

Doe's anyone know how to remove the hack, it has stopped working for me. When I installed it I deleted the install notes after on how to do the template mods.
