User always on forum

[Corbu]

Hello,

I want to know if it's possible to create a hack like this :

Indicate a username member, and specify that he 's always on the forum.
It is to show to other members that the administrator was always on the forum.

The result is we can see a specifiate name of user always on the Who's online...

Is it possible ?

many thanks and sorry for my english...

you mean a special username should always appear on who's online even if the user is not logged in?

well, it's not that easy, because you have to rewrite the session handling of vb if i see it right..

The simplest way would be to hardcode the username into the templates for the WOL and to hack functions.php/private.php so the postbit_online template is allways used for that user.

Seems like an interesting challenge. I don't think it is that hard to do. I'll give it some thought.

Yes, it's that you mean.

I'm very enjoy about this future hack ! Many thanks
