Spiders Display on Forumhome and Who's Online for vb4

[Boofo]

Spider Display for vB 4
Version 1.1.3
(By Boofo)

What does this product do?
This product will display the number of spiders on Forumhome and Who's Online. It will also add the count behind the spider name on Forumhome if there is more than one of a certain spider [ i.e. Google (3) ].

Credits:
A big thank you goes out to Adrian for helping me come up with the fix for this for vB 4.1.2, and straightening me out on keys in an array. Also, thanks to Paul M and Mosh for the comma fix for 4.1.8. Another thanks goes out to Mosh for the image file as well as making the mod work with all versions of vB 4. And yet another thank you goes out to HMBeaty for helping me find the fix for vB 4.1.10 and testing it thoroughly.

Version Information:
Version 1.0.0 --Initial release for vB 4
Version 1.0.1 --The count variable was wrong for the spider plural convention. Thanks goes out to Mosh for catching it. Also, the spiders_vbulletin.xml file has been updated to a more recent version, and the link for it below has been changed to another site that is keeping it up to date better than the original spiders list.
Version 1.0.2 --Fixed double comma issue with vB 4.0.5 in IE8.
Version 1.0.3 --Fixed issue with spiders displaying in a vertical listing in some browsers. The phrase ",with 0 spiders" will no longer show when there are no spider names listed.
Version 1.0.4 --Fixed to work with vB 4.1.2. Also, the "spiders_vbulletin.xml" file has been updated to the latest version as of February 15, 2011. => vBulletin 4.1.2 only
Version 1.0.5 --Added a setting to change the color of the spider name in the listing. Added a setting for Allowed Usergroups who can view spiders in the listing. Added a "View Map" link that will show up behind the spider count (or guest count if no spiders are currently on the site) on both the Forumhome and Who's Online. This link will only be visible if you have the "Digital Point User Map" mod installed. The spiders_vbulletin.xml file has also been updated to the latest version as of February 25, 2011. => vBulletin 4.1.2 only
Version 1.0.6 --Removed font color setting and added Style Variable setting for the Spider Display Font Color, so it can be set for each style separately. Set the dependency minversion to 4.1.2 in the xml file so there would be no improper version installs anymore. The spiders_vbulletin.xml file has also been updated to the latest version as of March 15, 2011. => vBulletin 4.1.2 only
Version 1.0.7 --Now fully phrased, as requested. => vBulletin 4.1.2 only
Version 1.0.8 --Should now work with all versions of vB 4, from 4.0.0 and up, including 4.1.8. Added a spider image to show before each spider, if the setting is enabled. It is off by default. The "spiders_vbulletin.xml" file has been updated to the latest version as of November 29, 2011.
Version 1.0.9 --Added a white spider icon image to go with styles that are dark. A setting has been added to choose what color image (black or white) you want to display before each spider name in the listing. The "spiders_vbulletin.xml" file has been updated to the latest version as of January 1, 2012.
Version 1.1.0 --Removed setting to choose the color of the spider icon and replaced it with a new style variable for the path to what spider image you wish to display for each style.
Version 1.1.1 --Added a setting to set the vertical alignment of the Spider Image. Added some more spider images.
Version 1.1.2 --Fixed to work on vB 4.1.10.
version 1.1.3 --Fixed to work with DragonByte Tech InfoPanels version 2.04 and above only.

NOTE: The word "Spider" or "Spiders" will no longer show up after each spider name listed in the activeusers listing on the Forumhome.

Thanks matey :)

[Mosh]

Hey Bob,

Thanks for the hack, I will use this over the other one I was using :)

One problem though, on the forumhome page when the number of spiders is greater than 1, it still displays "spider" rather than "spiders" (see attached screenshot).

Oh, one other thing, you may want to use my new spider list service to grab your spiders, as my list has more spiders on it, and it is more current (link in my signature) ;)

Mosh.

PS: I also added your hack as a recommended hack to display spiders in my spider list FAQ ;)

[Boofo]

Problem fixed and new version uploaded. Thanks, Mosh, for catching it. ;)

[Mosh]

All working fine now, thanks for getting out an update so fast :)

[Boofo]

And, again, thank you for catching it, sir. ;)

[Reycer]

ok, looks good, but it's counting all of my guests as spiders. I resolved their IP's and that's how I found out it was doing that.

[your24hourstore]

me too just tested it. im sure he can fix that though :>

im interested to see how many new spiders in wolfs list :>

[Boofo]

harleyparts, I'm not sure what you mean. It works fine for me and the others who have tested it. Have you tried resolving the IP to see what the ident string is saying? If so, then please PM me and I will see what is happening in your situation.

[your24hourstore]

i just installed it and then i went to twitter and posted a bunch of links to my site i was flooded with spiders but all came up as guest 56 spiders 0

but i know they are spiders. had two guests on when i did it

i will reinstall it
heres what it says right now
There are currently 36 users online. 1 members and 35 guests, with 0 spiders

Most users ever online was 94, 05-22-2010 at 07:58 PM.

[Boofo]

Did you resolve the user agent on the who's online to see for sure if they weren't spiders? What did the who's online show? They should match up.

Also, PM me somewhere I can send a test fix and we'll see if this catches it if they donlt match up.

[your24hourstore]

have you ever done what i said, goto twitter and unm, put a Bunch of links to your site threads in as tweets?

usually a flood of spiders will hit your site I have never resolved them to see who they are, i just use it to test the spider mod in whats going on, i used to use another one.

but i just made this new site, and i installed yours. thanks by the way.

the only reason i said it wasn't working is that other guy said his wasn't so i flooded twitter, and here they came. but all showed up as guests. heck i dunno they may not be spiders LOL

I just always thought they were, the other mod i used to use always showed them as spiders.

i guess i will do it again and see if i can find out who they are.

[your24hourstore]

heres screen of them little devils oh wow

it just started showing them thats strange...but hey maybe it was just guests showing up when i tweeted that

they are differently showing up as spiders BRO good job and thanks. already rated it MOTM and great

added: now that i see yours working i realize the other mod wasn't showing guests it was showing them as spiders..LOL

[Boofo]

I don't have a twitter account and have no desire to have one, to be honest. Not my thing, I guess.

As far as going there and posting links, I would venture to say what you saw earlier is ACTUAL people linking back to the site from the twitter post. Spiders are quick, but they don't act that fast usually. I added some jokes to my site earlier, as I knew it would draw some spiders. I was trying to test the hack after your post. I got a Google spider about 30 minutes later, which is on par.

The best way to test it is compare the amount of spiders on the forumhome and the who's online. If that matches up, then everything is working right. I don't add any code to the who's online as that is all vb doing the spiders there. I just add the total count. But I do add code for pulling the spiders on the forumhome as well as the total count. I have been using this product since way back in 3.5 and it hasn't failed me yet. ;)

I've installed this now on 2 forums, on one forum it shows no spiders and on the other forum is shows everyone but the members as spiders. weird.

[Boofo]

You must have something interfering with it then as there should be no way that is happening. I would check the other plugins and see which one is causing the issues. No one else has reported this other than harleyparts and his issue was resolved on his end.

On the forums where you see nothing but spiders, resolve the IPs and let me see what they say. You also have to remember, not all spiders will show up as spiders as some of them have not been added to the spiders_vbulletin file yet. That is why we resolve the IPs so we can see the ident string and add those that are spiders to the spiders file.

[Dark_Wizard]

Installed....nice mod Boofo.

[Boofo]

Thank you, sir. It's been a while. How have you been? ;)

[Dark_Wizard]

Thank you, sir. It's been a while. How have you been? ;)

Well here is the skinny, moved to North Carolina 3 years ago after a Heart Attack and Open Heart Surgery only to have another Heart attack earlier this past May...other than that not bad. :p

Wizard, you were born a day before me. You're too young for all of that stuff. Feel better man.

[Ken Sanders]

Thanks for the mod. Works great

[Dark_Wizard]

Thanks. Yes, getting older sucks royal arse!

I am pre-disposed by both sides of the family with Cholesterol/Heart Disease problems. Doctors have changed meds around big time. Thank god my heart is strong and I suffered no damage. Thanks!

[Boofo]

Well, hang in there. With a name like Bob, we are bound you be harder to kill. ;)

[gOOvER]

Thanks for this great addon. I would welcome the opportunity to remove the epithet "Spider" from the Who's Online list, if a spider is online.

e.g. Google Spider will be displayed as Google.

[Boofo]

The who's online listing is all vb. This product only handles the spider count on the who's online page, as well as the count and spider listing on the forumhome.

[princeedward]

Installed-Nominated-Rated Excellent!
;)

[China-Rising]

works great. Thanks.

[Boofo]

works great. Thanks.
A better thank you is to click install.

[KURTZ]

Bobby just a Q: is this spiders file more updated than Dream's?

[Boofo]

If you mean the link if the first post, then, yes, it is. Dream is no longer doing the spider list. It has now been officially passed on to Mosh (the link in the first post).

[KURTZ]

OK, thanks for the tip ;)

[vicelover]

Boofo, I am sorry for late to Rate and Mark as installed your this wonderful mod. (*^__^*)

PS: Rate 5 stars

[Boofo]

Better late than never. ;)

Thank you for the nice words.

[jmw]

Does this work with 3.8.x? If not, anybody knows of a similar hack that does?

[Boofo]

Yes, it should. But, if not, PM me and we can fix you up.

[TheLastSuperman]

* TheLastSuperman finally marks as installed... almost forgot :p

Thanks for this Boofo! - Quite handy imo

Edit: And special thanks to Mosh for the new huge spider list if he ever reads this ;)

[balkanboy]

why are the spiders listing down wards.....

[Mosh]

I have read this, you are most welcome :)

[Boofo]

why are the spiders listing down wards.....
What are you referring to?

[nirvana43]

Installed but its not displaying any spiders on my forum. I also downloaded latest spiders xml but it still not displaying anything.
Nice hack by the way :)

[Boofo]

Are you sure they are spiders?

[balkanboy]

any reason why its showing up like this for me

[balkanboy]

thanks for the update fixed my issue

[TheLastSuperman]

Good idea to not show "Spiders" if none are on!

* TheLastSuperman Re-installs ;)

[MichaelDance]

wont work for me, im on 4.0.7

[Boofo]

Works fine for me on 4.0.7.

[OldSchoolDSL]

Working flawlessly on 4.0.8

(Thank you)

[Taurus1]

Works great thank you.

Is it possible to get rid of the comma in front, as seen on attached screenshot please?

123260

[Boofo]

Works great thank you.

Is it possible to get rid of the comma in front, as seen on attached screenshot please?

123260

There should be no comma there with this mod. Are you sure you are not running the other one?

[Taurus1]

I am using another mod that splits the online users into different groups. But the spiders online only showed up after I installed your mod. So I am not sure if the other mod is causing it.

[Boofo]

It must be the other mod doing it as I have the leading comma (when there are only Spiders online) taken care of in this mod. Try disabling the other mod and see if it shows up then.

[Droptop]

Hello, I am having alignment issues on my forumhome page since upgading to 4.0.8 pl2. There is no more borders and the display is all jumbled together. Any idea what could be wrong?

I also have your site life status installed and used the fix there to correct the alignment problem. Thanks

[Boofo]

If you disable this mod are the issues still there?

[Droptop]

If you disable this mod are the issues still there?

No, the issue is only with this mod on the forumhome. Everything else is aligned properly

[Boofo]

Since this only adds to a phrase, there shouldn't be any alignment issues with this at all. Are you using the default skin?

[Droptop]

No, I am using a custom skin. But even on my default skin it is misaligned, this is a screenshot from the default skin.

[Brandon Sheley]

thanks for the mod
/me clicked install

[Boofo]

No, I am using a custom skin. But even on my default skin it is misaligned, this is a screenshot from the default skin.

It looks like you have another mod messing with the alignment. The visitors mod maybe?

[Droptop]

It looks like you have another mod messing with the alignment. The visitors mod maybe?

My bad Boofo, its not even your mod that was causing the problem. I thought the visitor's mod was yours. Sorry to have bothered you and thanks for trying to help me.

[Boofo]

My bad Boofo, its not even your mod that was causing the problem. I thought the visitor's mod was yours. Sorry to have bothered you and thanks for trying to help me.

No problem. I think Paul did an update to the visitor's mod to fix the CSS issues with the forumhome in 4.0.8.

[Idawg]

So this works fine on 4.0.8 with CMS??

[beatyourtruck]

Just installed on 4.0.8 and it is perfect. Great mod...always wondered how many creepy critters were on my site. THANKS!

[Deirdre]

Works with 4.1.1 ♥

[SweCastel]

Thanks for this mod!
But, how can I remove the displaying of robots on the forumhome page?
I dont want the users to see what type of spiders who are visiting.

I DO want to display: "4 members and 10 guests, with 15 spiders"
But I do NOT want to display "Facebook Spiders (11), Windows Live SOEE Spider, Pingdom.com Bot Spiders (3) " etc...

Thanks
Daniel

error on 4.1.2 beta

Warning: trim() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in [path]/forum.php(653) : eval()'d code on line 28
lol you really cant expect support for beta versions

[Boofo]

As I do not have 4.1.2 beta installed, I can't test anything. Once 4.1.2 final gets released, I will look into it further. If trim is giving that error, I would venture to say that the vb team screwed something up again on the update. In the meantime, you could try replacing this:

$activeusers = trim($activeusers, ', ');


with this:

$activeusers = substr($activeusers, 2);


to see if that fixes it for now.

[katim110]

installed 4.1.2. there is een prob...
You cant see the nicknames on the online list. when i turn off this script, user names appears again.

[Boofo]

Yes, that is the same problem that iCafe reported. They changed the forumhome_loggedin script in some way. I don't have 4.1.2 installed yet. When I do, I will get a fix for this.

[Fungsten]

Yes, that is the same problem that iCafe reported. They changed the forumhome_loggedin script in some way. I don't have 4.1.2 installed yet. When I do, I will get a fix for this, unless someone else comes up with on in the meantime.

I got the same issue too. They only display when the addon is turned off.

[Boofo]

Like I said guys, until I upgrade I can't supply a fix. I will try to do that this weekend. What I need to know is what they are using in place of what they have changed. Maybe I can offer some suggestions.

[Gemma]

Does this help you Boofo?

http://tracker.vbulletin.com/browse/VBIV-10457

[Boofo]

Not really. I looked at that when this was first reported. All this mod does is add the spiders to the end of the activusers line. Now that they have changed it, I'm not sure how you would do it the same way. I'm sure there is a way around it, but until I get the new version installed, I can't test anything. Let's show for this weekend on me installing it ans fixing this.

[pdtan]

$activusers become an array in vb4.1.2

[andryus]

i got this error on 4.1.2:

Warning: trim() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given in [path]/forum.php(653) : eval()'d code on line 28

Got the same issue on 4.1.1, but only when I upgraded my copy of PHP to 5.3.3 (down graded PHP solved this, to confirm)

It was a nice mod, but I can live without it.

Un-installed :(

The pre-4.1.2 version doesn't need any updating. It works fine as is. I won't be adding anymore to that version as I am now on 4.1.2 and that version won't work on 4.1.2.

[China-Rising]

Nice update.

Thanks:)

[BadgerDog]

Caution ....

Before you upgrade, make sure you keep your older version handy ..

Updated to v1.05 and it hung our site. Only thing members saw was a blank white screen and the word "done" on their browser screens. :eek:

It was working fine with previous v1.03. We never bothered to upgrade to v1.04 since the only change was support for vb4.1 and we're running vbulletin 4.04pl1.

We re-installed v1.03 again and the site recovered and seems to be working fine again, with the exception of some residual garbage left over where it shows the user names logged in (see pic). It's showing extraneous information about spider names and counts, that never showed before under v1.03, so I assume that's left over from the brief encounter with v1.05. I hope it goes away when the sessions drop? Anyone know how to force clear this field to restart to clear it now?

Thanks anyway for the update. It might be a conflict with another mod we use and v1.05, but if so, it never existed with v1.03.

Regards,
Doug

Edit: Can't get the extraneous junk continuing to be displayed (see pic) after the aborted v1.05 update discussed above. I can make it go away by disabling the re-installed v1.03 of this mod, so I've turned it off for now until someone can help us with permanently getting rid of it. It actually seems to be updating with the spider data, even though v1.05 was overwritten with v1.03 to recover our site after v1.05 took it down. Should I completely uninstall v1.03 and re-install it.. or, put v1.05 back and uninstall it completely, then re-install v1.03?

[Boofo]

The new version is for 4.1.2 and above only. Look at the file name.

[BadgerDog]

Sorry, my apologies ..

I simply read your update instructions and revision information posted in header here, which say "vB Version: 4.0.x ... Spider Display for vB 4 Version 1.0.5"....

I didn't understand 1.05 or 1.04 to be mutually exclusive and version specific, rather simply it added additional support for vb4.1 ...

Perhaps a bold statement in the top post info to this fact might help others avoid the same miss-step?

Anyway, through my own mistake, now I have some kind data pollution in the members on-line listing that keeps showing spiders and updating, even though I'm back at 1.03. I assume it's picking up the data from someplace and I can't get it to clear, except by disabling or un-installing 1.03.

I did try try complete installs and uninstalls of both 1.03 and 1.05, neither of which made the extraneous data go away.

Can you help at all?

Regards,
Doug

As outlined above, our forums go blank like this, but apparently it's due to 1.04 and 1.05 not being compatible with vBulletin 4.0.0.

What version of vBulletin are you trying to install it on?

[your24hourstore]

I tried to install this upgrade and give me this error, I have the version 4.1.2 that could be?

Fatal error: [] operator not supported for strings in /home/deleted/public_html/forum.php(656) : eval()'d code on line 31pm this guy he had same problem and it was his install mistake ask him what he did to fix it
#97 this is posted like 3 posts above yours . people need to read the threads not just post

[Boofo]

You can see here www.netpiratas.com

I see no Fatal error there at all. And Dave is right, it works fine on 4.1.2. He ought to know as he tested it throughly before it was released.

You have something somewhere messing with it somehow. Have you tried it on the default skin?

The only thing that has changed is the activeusers is now in an array with 4.1.2. The rest of the code, sans the settings, is the same code that worked for pre-4.1.2.

Can anyone help us with clearing the extraneous entries that now show information about spider names and counts left over from the aborted brief encounter installing v1.05, discussed in our previous two posts? Where do we reset something to remove these as they now appear in v1.03?

What extra data are you referring to? The pic showed the spiders and spider count like it should.

[Boofo]

Check the phrases.

[BadgerDog]

Thanks Boofo .... :)

I'm referring to exactly that information as shown in the pic, which never appeared under v1.03 and only started appearing after the aborted v1.05 install. We re-installed everything and re-installed v1.03 again, which after that, we now have this spider data appearing on a new line (doesn't even follow immediately on after the last comma'd username from a registered member), which we need to have stop appearing.

The presumption is that v1.05 sets something (new field?) or changes something that lets it do that, which was never an option or function in v1.03?

How do we reset that user "who's currently on" display to clear out that extraneous data so it no longer appears under v1.03 as it never did.

Appreciate any help .. :up:

Regards,
Doug

[Boofo]

Ok, I see what you meant now. Do you use caching?

[BadgerDog]

Ok, I see what you meant now. Do you use caching?

Yes, I think... at least I assume that is the vBulletin default? :confused:

I know that with v1.03 re-installed after our screw-up, that the data appears and actually increments as new spiders appear etc., so wherever this is coming from it's dynamic and active.

Thank you for the help Sir .. :up:

Regards,
Doug

[Boofo]

There has to be another mod messing with it somewhere. If you aren't running vb 4.1.2, as you have stated, then you would have gotten the error and that should have been it. Others have made the same mistake of installing the 4.1.2 version on pre-4.1.2 vb and have not shown the symptoms that you have had. I did it myself to see if I could duplicate it, but nothing stuck. My advice would be to disable one mod at a time to see if that clears it up.

[BadgerDog]

Thanks Boofo, but I don't have that kind of knowledge, just being an old Fortran programmer out of the 1960's ... ;)

It never conflicted with anything before I installed v1.05, so I think I'm going to have pass on using the mod further since everything else is currently running fine, however, I appreciate your efforts to develop mods for the community. :)

Un-installed v1.03 .... :(

Regards,
Doug

[Boofo]

That was going to be my next suggestion, but I knew you would end up there anyway.

[Mikevet1984]

I have a little bug with this mod!

Two times the spiders are shown in the WGO plus when there is a spider online the connected users bar diseppears. I post a screenshot to see what I mean. Please help!

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/

Thank you in advance for every reply!

[Boofo]

That is because you are using 2 spiders mods. The other spider mod you are using is causing the problem.

,with 1 spider and 1 spiders

[Mikevet1984]

Thank you, Boofo! You are correct. Much appreciated....

[traen]

I don't seem to have this option in the acp, "Spiders Display on Forumhome and Who's Online". Any ideas? I'm on 4.1.1 and using the guest tracking mod too.

The spiders are showing up fine on forum home and who's online, I don't have an option to change the settings for the mod though.

[Boofo]

The settings are only for the v4.1.2 of this mod, for use on vb 4.1.2 only. The other version does not have the settings.

[traen]

Is it possible to add the code into the mod for 4.1.1?

[Boofo]

Possible? Yes. Probable. No. ;)

Thank you in advance for every reply!

I have this same issue on 4.1.2 and I have no other spiders mod installed.

[Boofo]

If it is showing "and 1 spiders", that is from another spider display mod, not this one. This one only shows ", with 1 spider". You DO have another spider mod installed if that is what is happening. Are you using a server cache, by chance?

[Mikevet1984]

I had installed the mod <Spiders in What's Going on>.

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=231412

Please check if you have it and remove it.

The problem will be solved at once

[traen]

Great mod, especially for paranoid members :). I'd love to see the permissions options in the 4.1.1 version though.

[OldSchoolDSL]

Installed update (allow overwrite, yes)

Seems to be working

4.1.2 :)

[Boofo]

It should be working fine. It was tested long enough before I decided to release it. ;)

[nikosb]

Thanks for the mod. Works great

[NickyNet]

@Boofo,

thx, updated.. only 1 thing would be fine..
the hardcoded "with" word should be replaced by phrases.

thank you again!

I really like this modification.

Actually, there should be the same amount of bugs in both versions. As far as any integration problems gores, I have no idea what you are meaning on that. As I run 4.1.0. PL2 with the activeusers code change added, the older version wouldn't work for me now. It wouldn't be worth the time to upgrade the older version, to be honest.

so, if you like change it, if you don't like leave it as it is.
it was just a suggestion :) we can not ask for something which is free, we can only suggest :up:

Search is your friend. ;)

[Da-Vinci]

Hi Boofo, I noticed you made a point of posting this.

Just to clarify, as some people seemed to be confused with filenaming convention:

Spiders_Display_on_FORUMHOME.zip => vBulletin 4.0.0 to 4.1.1
Spiders_Display_on_FORUMHOME_vb4.1.2.zip => vBulletin 4.1.2 ONLY!

However I downloaded the Spiders_Display_on_FORUMHOME.zip version as I'm running 4.1.1, but got an incompatibility issue, not really a problem as I just edited the XML file so the max version was set at 4.1.2 and it installed fine, but there does seem to be an issue for people running 4.1.1, just a heads up, great mod Installed ;)

[Boofo]

maxversion fixed, thanks to BOP5's explanation.

[Asterix_ita]

Sorry I downloaded your update today and I see some small discrepancies

in the thread: Version 1.0.7 as the first of this upgrade,
in the file xml: <version>version 1.0.3 </ version>

is it correct?

thx

[Boofo]

It depends on what version of vb you are using.

[Mr. Flowers]

I have vB 4.1.2 and I downloaded version 4.1.2 but when I try to upload the xml file it says its invalid. I tried in products and in plug ins. No joy.

[Boofo]

I have vB 4.1.2 and I downloaded version 4.1.2 but when I try to upload the xml file it says its invalid. I tried in products and in plug ins. No joy.

This the the line in the product:
<dependency dependencytype="vbulletin" minversion="4.1.2" maxversion="" />

If you are running 4.1.2, it should install fine as a product. No one else has reported this issue.

[BirdOPrey5]

It could be a corrupted download, try downloading again.

[Losko]

Installed ;)

[Phaedrus]

Just to prove to Boofo that I clicked install...

Tried this with 4.1.3 and nothing shows, i downloaded the spider XML uploaded and installed the plugins over and over and nothing seems to show.

http://forum.adultfetishnetwork.com/forum.php

[Boofo]

Did you do these?

2. Go to 'Admin CP -> Settings -> Options -> Who's Online Options -> Enable Spider Display' and make sure it is set to 'Yes'

4. Go to your Admin CP -> vBulletin Options -> 'Spiders Display on Forumhome and Who's Online' and set the following option:
Spiders Display : Allowed Usergroups: These usergroups can view the Spiders Display on Forumhome.

5. Go to your Admin CP -> Styles & Templates -> Style Manager -> StyleVars (In the All Style Options drop-down) -> Boofo -> boofo_spiders_color
Enter the color code of the font color that you want the spiders to show up in.

NOTE: You will need to do this for all styles.

[iyama]

I had the same problems after upgrade to vb4.1.3. After i downloaded it from that site the spiders show up.

[Boofo]

Yes, did you upload the spiders xml file? It is included in the zip file.

[evilTone]

worked fine on 4.1.3

[MagicThemeParks]

I remember you having this available for the 3.8x vB versions a year or two back. Do you still have that one available Boofo?

[Boofo]

No, I don't, but it wouldn't be too hard to take the pre-4.1.2 version and get it working as it uses basically the same code that the vb 3 version did.

[MagicThemeParks]

Cool, I'll take a peek at it. Thanks :D

[Boofo]

Let me know if you run into any issues and we will see what we can do. If you get it going, let me know and I will post it in the 3.8 mods area.

[Boofo]

The spider listing from the link in the first post has been updated.

thank you bro

[billstelling]

Hey Boofo, what about 4.1.3, will it work with it?

[Boofo]

Hey Boofo, what about 4.1.3, will it work with it?

Re-read the firs post. I have updated it to answer your question.

[BadgerDog]

Finally upgraded from 4.04 to 4.1.3 and re-installed 4.1.2 of this product for testing ... :)

Will advise results ..

Regards,
Doug

[BadgerDog]

Uninstalled from 4.1.3 ....

Tested and when enabled, site just freezes solid with a "white screen" when main forum home page is clicked upon. If this mod is disabled, then site access returns and works fine. Able consistently duplicate this problem, so there must be a conflict with another mod or vBulletin software setting itself someplace.

Thanks anyway ... :)

Regards,
Doug

[Boofo]

You're got more going on than just a setting or a problematic mod, if this mod doesn't work.

[BadgerDog]

Could be, but it's the only mod (out of 24) that doesn't work on our v4.1.3 install ...

No big deal and not that important in the big scheme of things ...

Thanks anyway ... ;)

Regards,
Doug

[Boofo]

My point was that if this mod is giving you those kind of problems, then you can expect more of th same from other mods in the future. Better to figure it out now than to have to deal with it all again later on.

[BadgerDog]

Well, after 5 years of operating the site and using 28 (sorry, I was wrong above.. recounted and it's not 24) mods, never had a problem that brought down the site, until I installed 4.1.2 of this mod on our 4.1.3 vBulletin install. ;)

So, I have no idea why this one would do it, except we are operating Digital's user map add-on and Memcache (with vbOtimize), which might be a factor. I only say that because your mod is the only one we use that interacts with that mod, so I thought there might be some cause and effect.

Anyway, again .. no big deal as this add-on isn't mission critical ...

Thanks for your efforts though .. :)

Regards,
Doug

[Boofo]

Strange that no on else has run into this. There is nothing in the mod that would cause anything like what is happening to you. The code is basically the same as the earlier version except for the activeusers array that was added in 4.1.2. Like I said, be prepared for other issues eventually.

As far as being mission critical, I would beg to differ with you on that. It depends on your definition of it, I guess. I like to know who are guests and who are not, myself.

[Sarteck]

Was using "Spiders in WGO" plugin until my recent update. The $activeusers variable seems to have changed to an array sometime between 4.1.1 and 4.1.3. Disabled that plugin and installed this; no probs, now. :) Thanks, Boofo.

[Boofo]

It was changed in vb 4.1.2.

[av8or1]

Installed, thanks!

EDIT: Hey Boofo, I have added this capability to the version of the vBa Online Users module that I began enhancing for my forum's "splash" page. Hope that's ok; kept all references (ergo comments) that indicate you as the author, even added a couple of my own. I'd like to ask for permission to distribute this enhancement via the portal mod (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=266144) that I added the other day. If you're not up for that, I understand, just trying to help others == reason I ask.

Thanks!

[Boofo]

I'm not understanding what you are asking, sorry.

Installed Spiders_Display_on_FORUMHOME.zip accordingly on 4.1.1. when the correct settings were already in place. Uploaded all files to the right dir and such. Unfortunately Admin CP -> vBulletin Options -> 'Spiders Display on Forumhome and Who's Online' is nowhere to be found, also the StyleVar seems to be missing. Everything is checked as active under Plugin System. What could be the problem? I've imported it twice already.

[Boofo]

There are no settings or style variable in the 4.1.1 version. They were only added to the 4.1.2 version and up.

[ictvb]

Allright, thanks for the heads up, must have missed it. It's working as intended.

Hey Boofo, after upgrading to 4.1.5 the Spider count is not showing on my Who Is Online page anymore. It just displays the members and guests. Do you perhaps know why that would be? Thank you!

[Boofo]

I just looked to make sure it was working right on my site after upgrading to 4.1.5 today and it shows fine for me. If you have a custom style, I would start there. I use the default style.

Yeah, I tried on a default no parent style first, but still the same. Really not sure what it could be.

[Boofo]

Did you remember to re-upload the spiders_vbulletin.xml file after the upgrade? ;)

[Taurus1]

Yes I did, and I just did it again to make sure, but still the same. :(

[Boofo]

It has to be something that changed on your site as it uses a phrase. I have had no other reports of this happening so it almost has to be a custom style issue. Unless you added another mod that is interfering with it somehow, although I can't see that happening either. Make sure you have the setting turned on for the spiders in who's online.

I have more than 30 styles installed. And it is the same on all of them. Also default no parent. I can also not think of any other mod I installed recently that would interfere with this. Mystery to me mate! OH, and yeah I made sure that setting is turned on.

[Boofo]

You can try uninstalling it and reinstalling it and see if that does anything.

Other than that all I can suggest is disabling all your mods, enable this one and then enable the others one at a time to see if any of them are messing with it.

Boofo will decide when he upgrades. :)

I would like to note there may be conflict with dbtech info panel mod...everything is good but it does not show the spiders (google etc..) it just gives the number of spiders
Example: 9 spiders.
instead of Google(2) Yahoo(3) etc...
Which I thought it was to do but maybe not?

I haven't experienced it either. It was throughly tested on 4.1.8 and nothing like that ever popped up. Check it on the default skin and make sure it isn't the custom style causing it. Also, did you revert the forumhome template when you upgraded to 4.1.8? The commas are done differently now.

Type boofo into the top box in the style variable editor and it will filter it to just the one you need. You can also click on the colour box to choose colours instead of entering the number if you don't need it to be exact.

All working fine on my 4.1.8
