Members who have visited today.

[Paul M]

As of 24 Nov 2017 this modification has been withdrawn.

This adds a simple display of all members who have visited the forum - either today (i.e. since the users midnight) or in the last 24 hours.

Note: it is not possible for this hack to count guests.

The main features of the 3.8 version are as follows ;

1. It displays the list on the Forum Home.
2. The list view is collapsable, so you just see the number.
3. Invisible users are only displayed to those allowed to see them (with a "*")
4. Users who should display as coloured or bold etc will be displayed correctly (based on the display usergroup).
5. If you 'hover' over a username it will show the time they were last active.
6. The list is in member name order.
7. The ability to turn it on/off is in the ACP Options.
8. The ability to allow only certain usergroups to view the list is an ACP option (include or exclude groups).
9. An option to record and display the Most Ever Members can be enabled.
10. The switch between Visited Today and Rolling 24 Hours is an ACP option.
11. The listing of members can be suppressed (a simple message is displayed instead).
12. The list of names can be set to be always collapsed on initial view.

(Options are in vBulletin Options > Who has visited today)

To install just unzip the XML and import into vB using the ACP Product Manager.

Template Hook

Please note that this modification uses the following template hook in the FORUMHOME template ;

forumhome_wgo_pos2

This must be present in any customised template/style you are using, otherwise this modification will not display.

[jerx]

Thank you! Just updated this mod. Old version was removed automatically and new was installed without loosing any data.

Edit: The vbadvanced module stops working with this update. The reason is that it uses a different hook location (forum_start instead of global_start). I have changed it to global_start again and the module works. Is it ok to do so?

[Paul M]

Not really a good idea, it means the code runs on every vb page visited, even though its only ever used/displayed on the Forum Home. I would have thought fixing the VBA module would be better.

[PitchouneN64ngc]

Thanks for this update, but I've found a little bug in the 'forumhome_start' hook.

The code for displaying the 'Most Ever Members' line is defined and set after the eval of the template, and the part of code is useless. I've edited it to place the eval code after all (before the last } ).

Another thing: in the same piece of code, you have this:

if ($vbulletin->options['wvtmost'])
{
[...]

if ($vbulletin->options['wvtmost'])
{
[...]
}
}

Maybe you can remove one condition ;)

[kylek]

Thank you, glad to see old favorites for 3.8!!

[Medtech]

Definately glad to see this one! thanks and works like a charm

Yes, I know about the most users bug - it was spotted in another of my mods the other day - it affects a number of them and I wont have time to fix them all for a few days.

Thanks for pointing it out tho. :)

Ignore my post. I forget too quickly lately.

Could not install because this error message:

[HabbStar]

What template would i have to edit to change the image that displays to the left of this mod (at the moment it's the same as 'Users Online'

[Paul M]

Display_Visitors

[jerx]

As I already wrote, I had problems editing posts. I received a maxloggedin error message, when guest tracking mod was active. I contacted another user, who installed your member tracking mod and had the same error. He said that he "solved" it by commenting out
$vbulletin->datastore->do_fetch('maxloggedin',$errors);
in members who have visited plugin, but he doesn' t know why the problem occured.

I did the same and I don' t seem to receive the error message any more. But since there must be good reason for adding the code, I wanted to ask, if this is a harmless work around for our problem or if we need to find a better solution.

Edit: Correction, I still received the error. Now I commented it out in the guest tracking plugin.
Edit2: Commenting it out in guest tracking makes the most users ever online count (members and guests) and "most guests online over 24 hours" count not working correctly. The values do not get stored any more, so that it always displays the current count with the current time. I use the original code again.

[WoodiE]

I'm running 3.8 beta 1 and this version does not work with it. I was running a 3.7 version of this mod and it worked w/o issue.

[Paul M]

Sorry but you need to be more specific than "does not work" since it works fine for me.

[Alien]

This has since been corrected, yes? :)

Doesn't work as doesn't show up on the forum index page, no data, no table, nothing it's as if I didn't even install it.

Could because I'm running 3.8 beta 1 dunno, either way I just want back to 3.7 version of this mod and it's working fine. I'll wait until vB 3.8 goes final and then try this version again.

[Paul M]

Most likely you are using a customised forumhome template, missing the template hook.

[chooky]

I cant see it also, How I can insert the template hook ?

[Paul M]

Copy them from the standard template, or just revert your custom version.

[chooky]

thanks for your help, now it works fine.

[steve1966]

[King Justice]

This script isn't working for vB 3.8?
Why?..why isn't it showing?

[King Justice]

What IS the custom template hook?? And where to put it??

[King Justice]

Still need help please.. :o !

[Paul M]

Template hooks are a standard part of vb templates.

For example, this is part of the standard Forumhome template, showing the template hook used by this mod.


<tbody id="collapseobj_forumhome_activeusers" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_forumhome_activeusers]">
<tr>
<td class="alt2"><a href="online.php$session[sessionurl_q]"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/whos_online.gif" alt="$vbphrase[view_whos_online]" border="0" /></a></td>
<td class="alt1" width="100%">
<div class="smallfont">
<div style="white-space: nowrap"><phrase 1="$recordusers" 2="$recorddate" 3="$recordtime">$vbphrase[most_users_ever_online_was_x_y_at_z]</phrase></div>
<div>$activeusers</div>
</div>
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
<!-- end logged-in users -->

Same problem I have. There is no visited member names even if I reinstall it.

[jupiter5]

I converted my Forumhome style to original. It appeared again.

[bntmofeid]

thanks

[King Justice]

Same problem I have. There is no visited member names even if I reinstall it.
You just have to put this template hook somewhere in forumhome, it really doesn't matter where, as long as it's in the what's going on section:
$template_hook[forumhome_wgo_pos2]

:)

[Paul M]

It does matter where you put it, otherwise it may not display properly.

[topmedic]

I have the following modes on " What's Going On?"

Members currently using Flashchat:
Total guests that have visited the forum today:
Total members that have visited the forum today:

... in that order.

Is it possible for me to rearrange them so they appear like below?

Total members that have visited the forum today:

[Paul M]

You would need to play with execution orders and possible the hooks used.

[yotsume]

With your 3.8x version of this mod you seem to have removed a option you had in previous version to run the code on all pages. When you removed this it seems that other importnat mods no longer work. For instance there is a vba mod that calls your mod so we can see who has visited today in a nice vba block. This no longer works.

Can you offer a way to get this fixed? It is found here: VBA Members who have visited (http://www.vbadvanced.com/forum/showthread.php?t=24229)

I have also asked the developer of that mod to try and update. Can he is you removed the run code on all pages option???

Code Option (You removed this option?) Change this if you want this modifications code to run on all vb pages, not just the forum homepage. Run Code on all pages

[Paul M]

Yes, that has been removed. I dont use VBA so I cant help you.

[yotsume]

Any chance you can sneak that option back in for the 1000s of us that use VBA please! :D

[drn]

Hi

I'm one of the 1000s :) - but would be happy to help get this resolved. Is the work to put the code back in significant? If so, I'll have a go tackling from the vBA module side...

Cheers!

[Paul M]

I would guess that if you change the hook that Members who have visited (2) uses - to global_start - it will work for you. You will have to do that yourself tho, Im not going to change the mod.

Any chance you would be willing to provide some instructions on how to do this for us? Your mod is great and will only be even that much better when it can be made to work with VBA again.

Thanks!

[Paul M]

Just edit the hook in the ACP product/plugins inteface.

VBA Module Fix Instructions:
Once again PaulM comes through for us!!! THANK YOU! Such and easy fix that did the trick!

Here are simple instructions to get the VBA mod to work with this current version of Paul's mod:

1. From your AdminCP go to: Plugins & Products > Plugin Manager
2. Edit the plugin labeled: Members who have visited (2)
3. Change the Hook Location to: global_start in the drop menu.
4. Save and done! Your vba block will now work!

You can find the vba module for "Recent Visitors" here: [Module] Members who have visited the forum (http://www.vbadvanced.com/forum/showthread.php?t=24229)

exellcent - i installed it it looks good

[Mases]

I have this installed, it replaced the old one, but it is not appearing on my index page.
http://www.zeldadungeon.net/forum/

Should there be a specific code in the ForumHOME or Footer templates?

Any help would be much appreciated.

[Paul M]

Yes, you must have the default template hooks in your forumhome template.

[Mases]

Got it working thanks.

One thing I've noticed in the past.

It will count two days combined when determining the 'most users ever online'. Usually on Tuesday-Wednesday.

On Wednesday when I look at the forum, I'll see it says most uesrs ever online 90 today. But then count, and only see like 70 users there. It's counting users from yesterday.

Does anybody else get this issue?

[C138 Kaysone]

can we have some screenshots?

[Mases]

I think it seems to be working now.

I had that problem before but I've since changed to the 24hour cycle rather than the day ending at Midnight. As far as I can see, things seem to be running smoothly at this point. I'll surely report anything that seems unusual.

[blyk]

I have a problem in which "Members who have visited" is being displayed twice. The code is being pushed into the template twice, because if you try to collapse the bottom entity then in turn it will collapse the top one.

Does anyone know how I can fix this problem?

[kellyandmark04]

My time is off in mine it is saying most users ever online was 4 minutes ago at 8pm and it's not even 2pm yet and keeps changing times any help???

I also noticed my times are off at the bottom of my forum, but are set correctly in the date time options so it's not the hack, but still any help will be appreciated.

Try it using the default vb style, if its ok then you have a customised style issue.

[dmknights]

*Installed*

[Simon Lloyd]

I haven't downloaded this mod yet, and i have just been trying to create a simple hit counter that will count how many MEMBERS have visited a page, it works but not just for members, so, i was wondering Paul, could this mod be made to only show in certain pages (i have 3 custom pages/templates) and show the stats/hits for that particular page?

I want to be able to count how many Members visit my custom pages, this will tell me if they are popular or not and whether i should develop those ideas further or get rid of them depending on their use.

What do you think?

[blyk]

Try it using the default vb style, if its ok then you have a customised style issue.

I do have a customized style, but when I view my default style I have the same problem.

[Paul M]

Sorry, cannot tell you anything without admin access to your forum.

[juverol]

Thank you man ;)

No template changes are needed (unless you have a custom style, then you may need to do something).

[Jon Tolzien]

go to admin cp > Styles and Templates > Style manager > current style > edit template > forum home template > forumhome_no_post_1 or something. As for moving the bar up their, I don't know where the member bar goes, but if you know that part. You got the second half of the answer.

Hi Paul,

I use XCache for datastore and I observe after every restart of mysqld the statistics for "most users ever" is gone. Is that a normal behaviour when using XCache?

Nope. I use Xcache as well (as do many others) and have no such issue.

Wow, I can't believe I didn't notice this 3.8 version sooner...

Anyway, I have vBulletin 3.8.1 and I've succesfully run v3.7.004 version of this mod to date... Are there any new features in v3.8.002 (compared to v3.7.004)? Should I upgrade?

[Paul M]

Not really, you can continue to run the old version if you wish.

[rizelim]

thanks!

[Loki12]

My "Most members online over 24 hours" seems to have resetted today ... losing the previous record.

I know why, it's because I have installed the AJAX Who's Online (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=1743709&postcount=20). Damn.

[Paul M]

Yep, that mod will break a few ME counts.

The second, I replace $template_hook[forumhome_wgo_pos2] into Forum Home
The Third, I reinstall this mod

[Dreamgun]

uh, my forums I recently reopened for some reason has received the following stats:


Most users ever online was 11, 1 Day Ago at 01:55 PM.
The most members online in one day was 12, 1 Day Ago.


Can anyone make sense or this to me - how there is one member difference?

[Paul M]

They are entirely different things, the top one is the totel members and guests online at any one time, the bottom one is the total members (only) that signed in over a day.

[john2k]

Is there any option to make the text: "Total members that have visited the forum in the last 24 hours: ###" to be a link that points to another page which lists all the member names instead of listing the usernames on the forum index?

Or maybe just an easy way to make that change?

[Prisoner]

It seems that there is a glitch in it somehow.

Yesterday, my new forum www.centextalk.com, seemed to max out at 120. It hit that number early in the evening, then I saw new members joining after this time, but the max didn't increase.

Does that make sense?

Yes it does, its to do with users being in different timezones.

[Prisoner]

I think I get it. It has to do with the setting in the User Control Panel?

When I transferred the users in, it set everybody to GMT. I saw in the code for the mod that it reads their last action.

That makes perfect sense. Being a Central Texas Forum, I have a few from outside the area, but not many.

Any Ideas as to how it is like it is please Paul?

(Psychic hat on please :)).

[Paul M]

No, Im not even sure what your issue is exactly, are you saying it is constantly resetting, or just reset once ? If the latter then thats just something that can happen.

[Welshy2008]

When I used your mod on my 3.6.8 version is worked great.
When I upgraded to 3.8.1 PL1, it reset itself back to the figure that was shown on the first month of my forum being open. (really Low).

The figure, from then til now was high, and it doesn't reflct the true "most ever members online in 24hrs".

[Paul M]

Sorry, but your still not making this clear. Did it just reset once ?

[Welshy2008]

It has set back to the result that was there the second month of the forum being open.

that was a low figure. We have 'smashed' that record many times and when I used your Mod on my 3.6.8, it worked perfectly, and was updating everytime that taotal users' figure was beaten.


No more though. I would like it to work. :(

[Paul M]

Nothing can reset it to a specific figure. If it has reset once then it will increase again each time you beat the previous total. If it is constantly resetting then you have some code somewhere that is not compatible with 3.8.

Single resets are rare, but can happen if the datastore got corrupted, it has happened here once (a few months ago).

[Welshy2008]

It hasn't updated with the new "Higher" totals Paul.

Any idea how/what I can do to sort thiss out Please?

Like you say - It is probably a code compatibility problem somewhere.

Hi Paul,

I'm having an issue here which, has cropped up for the first time since the clocks went forward here in England.

The stats showing how many users visited my forum today is only correct when logged in but when logged out it's subtracting the overall stat tally by 2. I only noticed this issue today and it's the same issue for your other hack "Memebrs who have posted today".

I've identified the users which, are not being recorded but can't work out any reason why they shouldn't be. 2 of them are new users if that helps.

Any ideas?

[Paul M]

I would imagine your default timezone (used by guests) is wrong, check your forum time when logged out.

[marcut]

How do you get it to show how many guests? (for exmaple, it will say 300 people visited today. 200 members 100 guests. and it will list the members, not guests)

Yes.

Yes this works well, ok here's were you need to put the hook, go to your adminCP, on the left under styles&templates click style manager. Make sure you choose the correct skin to work with so if your running a custom skin click that! Next from the drop down box that shows all style items choose edit templates, navigate to forum home templates. Then click forum home ...........find the code as shown below and drop your hook intel exactly below 'end logged in users'.

I posted a big ass pic

Good God man .. stop the madness.

[DPtheGod]

Wait, question! Where do I put " forumhome_wgo_pos2 " to make it show up on my forum? I put it in the forumhome template, but I did not see it show up. I tried " $forumhome_wgo_pos" and nothing showed up. :S

[kyrenator]

thank you! nice hack

[masterweb]

Really thanks for this mod. Installed and working :D

[adom7]

Nice work, installed

Is there a german language translation available?

Thanks

[DeviantFlash]

Am I allowed to define the usergroups that visited ie banned members or members awaiting confirmation dont show up?

For example I would like only three groups in my forum to display instead of the six groups that I have.

[Paul M]

Nope, there is no such option.

[DeviantFlash]

Ok. Thanks.

[wired420]

Awesome plugin. Keep up the good work. :D

As the main post says, you need to make sure the template hook is present.

Does this add any extra queries? Are stats updated on every page view or via cron every "x" minutes ?

[Paul M]

It runs a simple select query on the forum homepage.

[Kuimera]

thank you

thx. works in 3.8.3.

Thanks.

[kalisekj]

Please Help I have Upgraded to the new version and now This is no longer showing up at the bottom of my forum home page. grrrr This is the second Mod I have upgraded in past 24 hrs that has done completely away with the stats.

[Paul M]

Read the main post (template hooks).

[kalisekj]

ok I am far from a programmer, can someone give me the English Novice version, where do I put forumhome_wgo_pos2? I tried adding it to forumhome template with and without a $, to no avail it never showed up. Since I just upgraded from an earlier version everything should still be in place, or so I assumed.

I appreciate all your help in this matter. :D

[Paul M]

See post #130 in this thread.

[kalisekj]

Paul M , You are the Best Thank You I had the hook there just not the complete syntax line. Its working fine now. WooHoo!

[g0dfather1984]

Thank you, Paul. Greatly appreciated.

[HastleGames]

The option of excluding usersgroups not working
I put the id # 3 and select the option Exclude List, but still shows me these users in the mod

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=101476&stc=1&d=1246651446

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=101477&stc=1&d=1246651446

[Paul M]

Thats because you are misunderstanding the option. It means members of usergroup 3 cannot see the modification, not that they are excluded from the display list.

[HastleGames]

Oh sorry a thanks for the reply, but is it possible? how?

[Paul M]

No, there is no such ability in the mod. I may think about it when I have to upgrade it for vb4.

[HastleGames]

well, I change the sentecias "SQL" to deal with it, adding

and `usergroupid` <> 3
as follows:
SELECT * FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."user FORCE INDEX (lastactivity)
WHERE lastactivity > $cutoff and `usergroupid` <> 3 ORDER BY username

[chuckhodson]

Cool thanks installed. .. .

[Bob_R]

Can I change this

forumhome_wgo_pos2

to

forumhome_wgo_pos3

[Paul M]

Yes, if you really want to.

[stevetank]

Nice one thanks.

[Paul M]

I would guess you have a very low timeout value, and its timing out on the index creation. Did you try it again ?

[0lly]

Yeah, I've tried it about 5-6 times now.

[robdawg]

Is there anyway to reset the most logged in value to 0?

[corsacrazy]

how can i change the outputted html i cant find a template with the info and phrases? i also want to change the image which is used and where it links... help

[Paul M]

Display_Visitors is the template.

Look in the xml file to find all the phrase names.

[Medtech]

Thanks, works great!! :D:D

[villor]

good job

[kalemisj]

thank you guys

Mark as installed

[SuperGLS]

Installed. Working good on 3.8.4. Thanks!

[designBox]

Unfortunately, I have a huge customized forum and this mod won't work for me (have to insert the hook in the footer template). Is there any alternative or plan to allow the hook being inserted elsewhere than on FORUMHOME?

Thanks anyway for the great mod.

[robdawg]

I know I posted this before, but I need to know the answer.

The most members online over 24 hours was XXXX

How do I reset the the XXXX value to 0?

Thanks.

[Paul M]

There is no method to do this.

You could try messing directly with the datastore, but thats not something id advise unless you really know what you are doing. Other than that, you would need to run some code to reset it.

[robdawg]

If you can tell me the table name and what column to search on, I can find and update that row to change it back to 0.

Thanks.

[Paul M]

Im afraid its not that simple, which is why I said you really need to know what you are doing.

The data is stored in the Datastore (table), as part of a serialised array, in the maxloggedin row.

[robdawg]

Change this line in the manage plugin area in the admin:
if ($totaltoday > intval($vbulletin->maxloggedin['maxvisitors']))

To the following:
if ($totaltoday < intval($vbulletin->maxloggedin['maxvisitors']))

Let the page run once and then changed it back. haha. Ghetto work around, I know but it reset a bad count to the current number which is what I wanted.

[Smitty]

Nice script change! Thanks for sharing!

I had to change mine once in the database when a hoard of spiders practically doubled the count. I didn't want members wondering about the number being a real number. I don't mind playing around in a database, but your script change would have been about as quick and easy.

I'll backup what Paul said: "You could try messing directly with the datastore, but thats not something id advise unless you really know what you are doing." If you're not comfortable diving into a database and understand its relational schema, you better watch out. You can easily hose the whole database.

[Paul M]

Yep, that was option 2. :)

[cuphongle]

Yes this works well, ok here's were you need to put the hook, go to your adminCP, on the left under styles&templates click style manager. Make sure you choose the correct skin to work with so if your running a custom skin click that! Next from the drop down box that shows all style items choose edit templates, navigate to forum home templates. Then click forum home ...........find the code as shown below and drop your hook intel exactly below 'end logged in users'.

great and thanks Paul...my vb3.8.4 is updated...;):up:

[Simon Lloyd]

Paul, im using the 3.7 version on a 3.8.4, it works perfect (or at least seems to) do i need to upgrade to this one?

[Paul M]

Nope, there is no need to upgrade.

[Simon Lloyd]

Thanks for that, one other question, i currently use username html (in usergroups) and for some members i have some text that shows on hover, unfortunately on hover i now cannot see the last time logged in as your mod does is there something i can add in the usergroup markup to display the last logged in time? as i thought it was a great feature - but i want both :)

[Paul M]

Nope, you cant have both, if you add a title in the html markup it will override the title added by the mod.

[princeedward]

hi paul....i notice that guest can't view this to my forum...did i missed somethig here?

[MagicThemeParks]

Another flawless install. Thanks Paul :up:

Ive never known anything to conflict with this.

There is nothing more i can tell you without access to your forum, I could be guessing forever.

I just can't make it work. It's ther but there is no option in the adminCP that shows it or any way to control it.

Nope, mine is working fine.

PL1 has no effect on this at all.

PL1 has no effect on this at all.I didn't think it would, but thank you for the confirmation. :) Makes it a little less stressful to make the changes.

[PikeyXB]

I am running 3.8.4 Patch Level one, but I installed the Mod last night and was already updated to P1.

Only problem I have is the mouseover function doesn't work, supposed to show the time visited when hovering over the username, but mine displays the membergroup (Administrator, Mod, member etc)

Not sure what is going on there???

[Paul M]

Thats because you have set that in your usergroup markup html - it overrides the mod.

[oxygenthief]

Hi,
I'm new to forums, and I need more instructions on how to install. Where is ACP Product Manager?
I cant seem to find it. Im runnig version 3.8.3

Thanks in advance

[Paul M]

ACP = Admin Control Panel.

[oldlock]

Wrong place - disregard

[oxygenthief]

I can't see a Product Manager in my ACP. Could it be called something else?

[Paul M]

I think its called something like "Plugins & Products" :)

[oxygenthief]

Thank Paul.

I have hit another problem:

I don't have a hook template called, forumhome_wgo_pos2

I have a few starting with forumhome but non that match the above.

Can anyone tell me what to do next?

Cheers

[oxygenthief]

ok had a look through the code and had a try at entering it. I have the settings as:
Product - vBulletin
Hook Location - forumhome_start
Title - Who has visited
Execution Order - 5

It saves but does not work on the forum. No errors or anything just does not appear.
Anyone know what I have done wrong?

Thanks

[Paul M]

There is no requirement to start editing the code, and doing so will most likely break it. Undo your changes.

If you dont have the template hook then you must manually add it. Either do a compare with the default vb template to see where it goes, or look back in this thread for the posts about it (try round about post #189).

[oxygenthief]

I have not edited the code. Just copied and pasted from the download. I have done the above, but still cannot get it to work.
I still dont have the forumhome_wgo_pos2 option.

This is the options I selected when I added the plugin, through the plugin manager.

I have deleted the text you have highlighted in red and still nothing.

I'm assuming that when the text is added into the template, that then activates the forumhome_wgo_pos2 option which I select as the hook location?

If so, I'm still not getting the forumhome_wgo_pos2 option in the hook locations.

Cheers

[Paul M]

You dont add anything in the plugin manager, unless you are creating your own.

The instructions are quite clear ;

unzip the XML and import into vB using the ACP Product Manager

This is all you do.

[oxygenthief]

Ok
Thats what I tried first yesterday. I have just tried again:

This is what I'm doing:
User CP> Plugins and products> Manage products> Add/import products

I have unzipped the file and placed it into 'EITHER upload the XML file from your computer' section. When I click import I'm then given the 'No file uploaded and no local file found.' message.

Am I doing the correct procedure?

Cheers

[oxygenthief]

Can any one help?
Cheers,

[Paul M]

I have unzipped the file and placed it into 'EITHER upload the XML file from your computer' section. When I click import I'm then given the 'No file uploaded and no local file found.' message.
Depends on what you mean by "placed it" into that section.

You must click on the "Browse" button next to that section, and navigate to the unzipped file, then click on Import.

If that gives the error you mention then you have a server issue uploading files, which I cannot help with.

Im now going away on holiday, so I wont see this thread again for over a week.

[SamirDarji]

To install any plugin that has an xml file.

Download the xml file.

Go to your admincp-->Plugins & Products-->Manage Products-->[Add/Import Product]

Then use the first option "EITHER upload the XML file from your computer" and use the "Browse" button to find the xml file you downloaded. Once the file is properly selected, click on Import. Then proceed to configure the plugin and then check its operation.

[YISRAEL]

Familiar but thank you

[Saviour]

Can this be coded with a conditional to prevent Banned members from appearing? If so, what is the correct procedure for coding this mod to allow for this?

Thanks, in advance...

[Jobe1986]

Odd question, but why doesn't this mod use:
$user['musername'] = fetch_musername($today);
in the forumhome_start plug-in so it doesn't have to go and find the user name markup itself?

Personally I think this would be a nice addition to the mod. At least that way other mods can use the fetch_musername hook and it actually have effect in this mods output.

[Paul M]

Because it doesnt need to use it :)

The information is read as part of an existing read, and also in an existing cache, therefore the extra overhead that fetch_musername() adds is unnecessary.

[Skydiver10]

Thanks for this mod Paul!! :)

[Jobe1986]

Because it doesnt need to use it :)

The information is read as part of an existing read, and also in an existing cache, therefore the extra overhead that fetch_musername() adds is unnecessary.

But at the cost of not allowing OTHER mods to use the fetch_musername hook to change the musername

Also, for the record (from the afore mentioned fetch_musername, where $user is passed TO the function, using the SAME caches):
$user['musername'] = $vbulletin->usergroupcache["$displaygroupid"]['opentag'] . $username . $vbulletin->usergroupcache["$displaygroupid"]['closetag'];

I'm well aware how the function works ;)

As for the hook, no one has found that to be an issue in over 4 years.

I will not be changing this version (or any of the 3.x versions). However, I will consider it for the 4.0 version.

Just a quickie.
It says in the info that you can change the mode from today to last 24 hrs in the acp.

I must be a bit of an idiot because I can't see any option for changing between the two. Could someone just point me in the right direction.

(Options are in vBulletin Options > Who has visited today) :) .

Hey paul what code would i need to edit to change the time period , i.e instead of 24 hours changing it to a week or something

[Paul M]

A week ??

You would change 86400 to however many seconds you want - but be aware that you also need to change phrases, and the 'hover' timestamp becomes somewhat meaningless.

Ok great , where would the 86400 be located ? sorry havent looked into this at all.

One of my admins want it done on a small dead forum that i dont work on since ive left it to him to manage i said id find out how to do it for him

hi, i've a problem with this hack, my forum dispaly:
Total members that have visited the forum in the last 24 hours: %1$s 61
in bold underlined the error. how i can fix it?

[Paul M]

Thats generally caused by a customised phrase, make sure you dont have a customised [english] translation.

You need to edit the Display_Visitors template, you have obviously customised the other sections.
