I was looking for a way to reset "most users ever online"

I ran this query:

UPDATE datastore SET data = '' WHERE title = 'maxloggedin';

It worked fine.

But then it resets to:

Most users ever online was 1, 12-31-1969 at 06:00 PM.

I tried this one also:

update datastore set unserialize = 1,data = ' ' where title = 'maxloggedin'

Same thing, resets to 1969.

Any ideas?

The queries you ran are correct, you have a modification that is breaking it again (specifically, code written for vb3.5 is the problem).

Older versions of CMPS are a well known candidate (but not the only one).

well, i do have vbadvanced installed, not the latest version....

it was fine until i tried to reset it by using a query....its been retarded since.

Any idea what code exactly could be causing it?

The online users module if you are using it (versions prior to 2.2.1 I think).

ok vb advanced doesnt seem to be part of it, still does it with it online users disabled......

is this stupid automerge gonna disallow this from being bumped/resolved or?

Could use the help.

There isn't much anyone can do unless you plan to give them ftp and admin access, we could spend a long while trying to guess at what modification is doing it.

Do you have a hell of a lot of mods installed? If not maybe you could post them here..

what blows me away is it started ONLY after running the query.....

I would think if it was a mod, it would have affected it prior..... perhaps not. I'll setup an account so you can check it out paul

I had a look and you have a number of old 3.0.9 files on your server - one of those is forum.php - anyone using that to view your forum will break your count as it's old code.
