I want to hide $activeusers and $browsers from guests

[Figment]

Searched high and low and cannot find a hack that would allow me to hide active user and browsing user information from specific user groups (in particular, guests)

Does anyone know of such a thing??

TIA

In index.php find:


eval("\$activeusers .= \", ".gettemplate('forumhome_loggedinuser')."\";");
}
}
$DB_site->free_result($loggedins);


replace with:


eval("\$activeusers .= \", ".gettemplate('forumhome_loggedinuser')."\";");
}
}
$DB_site->free_result($loggedins);

if ($bbuserinfo[userid]==0) {
$activeusers="";
}


now in forumdisplay.php fine:


}
eval("\$onlineusers .= \"".gettemplate('forumdisplay_loggedinusers')."\";");
}
}


and replace with:


}
eval("\$onlineusers .= \"".gettemplate('forumdisplay_loggedinusers')."\";");
}
}
if ($bbuserinfo[userid]==0) {
$browsers="";
}


that should do it..

Thanks for the reply.

Sorry, I obviously didn't explain very clearly. Your solution does part of what I am trying to achieve. On the forum homepage, I want to hide the entire section (see attached) from guests

Edit: Unless I did something wrong (which I have checked many times) it seems to be working so the guests can see the loggedinusers template, whilst as admin I cannot !

it should work, check and make sure that you didn't change on of the $bbuserinfo[userid]==0. Because if you set it to anything, such as 1 or such, then one of your members, in this case, you cannot see it whilst the guests can.

If that doesn't work, try putting:


eval("\$activeusers .= \", ".gettemplate('forumhome_loggedinuser')."\";");
}
}
$DB_site->free_result($loggedins);

if ($bbuserinfo[userid]==0 && $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==1]) {
$activeusers="";
}




}
eval("\$onlineusers .= \"".gettemplate('forumdisplay_loggedinusers')."\";");
}
}
if ($bbuserinfo[userid]==0 && $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==1) {
$browsers="";
}


that might make the fix.

Silenced soul.

Tried your version, got a parse error in index.php on the if...... line

Retried with Neos suggestion and the names of the logged in users and browsers are no longer visible to guests, but the forumhome_loggedinusers template is still visible (albeit without any names)

I could really do with this template not being visible to guests either, as it shows the number of members/guests online, which I would prefer them not to see.

Any more ideas?

index.php
find

if ($displayloggedin}

replace with

if ($displayloggedin and $bbuserinfo[userid] >= 1)

forumdisplay.php
find

if ($showforumusers)

replace with

if ($showforumusers and $bbuserinfo[userid] >= 1)

That's all folks. :D

Thanks Nuno, that did the trick :) :)
