Who Was Online Today on forums

[Gary King]

PLEASE CLICK THE INSTALL BUTTON IF INSTALLED! :)

What does this hack do?

It shows the users who visited your forums in the last 24 hours (or today). This hack works similiarly like the one released for vBulletin 2.

NOTE: If you want to show 'Who was online today' on a separate page from forumhome, then download instructions-newpage.txt and onlinetoday.php instead of instructions-regular.txt

Modifications
1 file modification 3 template modifications 0 queries to run

Features
supports and uses phrases
usernames are formatted properly
invisible users only show to people who are supposed to see them (admins and whoever else you allowed)
integrated (makes it so that the Who Was Online bar is now collapseable :)


Screenshots
Look below :)

Credits: Thanks goes to Mystics, where this hack is based on his :)

[Dan]

thanks for the great hack Gary I think I'll use it on my site.

[MindTrix]

Ima go install this now because i was waiting for it :) Cheers mate

[Hotte]

why did it take so long to release? :D
was waiting for this hack :)
*install*

[Gio Takahashi]

Installing now. Good job.

[Link14716]

This is the third version of the Who Was Online Today hack for vB3 that I've seen.

[sharjah]

One of the 5 hacks I'm looking for.
Great Job!

[redd]

Can this also be set to show the total number of guests today?

[Princeton]

great job!

[Link14716]

Can this also be set to show the total number of guests today?
It would be insanely inaccurate no matter how it is done.

[Asterik]

it has the exact same text *bad grammar* as Chroder's one

[Princeton]

some errors ...
this
<a href="member.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=getinfo&userid=$userid" title="Last online at $lastactivetime">$username</a>$invisibleuser
should be
<a href="member.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&amp;action=getinfo&amp;userid=$userid" title="Last online at $lastactivetime">$username</a>$invisibleuser

I would also recommend using vb phrases (add new ones)
Also, add template names to $globaltemplates array

[MGM]

thanks Gary!!

MGM out

[sabret00the]

you gonna make one for the WOL?

[Zelda-King]

Mods and admins don't show in formatted text (bold/italic).

[Princeton]

Mods and admins don't show in formatted text (bold/italic).
try (not tested)
Replace
if ($todayuser['usergroupid'] == 6 and $highlightadmin) {
$username = "<b><i>$todayuser[username]</i></b>";
} else if (($mod["$userid"] or $todayuser['usergroupid'] == 5) and $highlightadmin) {
$username = "<b>$todayuser[username]</b>";
} else {
$username = $todayuser['username'];
}
with
$username = fetch_musername($todayuser);

[Zelda-King]

That did the trick, thanks! :)

Invisible users show for all and not just admins. The fix is as follows:

Find:

$todayusers=$DB_site->query("SELECT userid, username, usergroupid, lastactivity FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."user
WHERE lastactivity > " . (mktime(0,0,0,date("m"),date("d"),date("Y")) + (($bbuserinfo['timezoneoffset']-$timeoffset)*3600)) . "
ORDER BY username");
while ($todayuser=$DB_site->fetch_array($todayusers)) {
$numbertodayonline++;
$invisibleuser = '';
$userid = $todayuser['userid'];
$lastactivetime = vbdate($vboptions['timeformat'], $todayuser[lastactivity]);
if ($todayuser['invisible']==1) and ($bbuserinfo['usergroupid']!=6) {
$numbertodayonlineinvisible++;
continue;
}
if ($todayuser['invisible']==1) { // Invisible User but show to Admin
$invisibleuser = '*';
}



Replace with:

$todayusers=$DB_site->query("SELECT userid,(user.options & $_USEROPTIONS[invisible]) AS invisible, username, usergroupid, lastactivity FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."user
WHERE lastactivity > " . (mktime(0,0,0,date("m"),date("d"),date("Y")) + (($bbuserinfo['timezoneoffset']-$timeoffset)*3600)) . "
ORDER BY username");
while ($todayuser=$DB_site->fetch_array($todayusers)) {
$numbertodayonline++;
$invisibleuser = '';
$userid = $todayuser['userid'];
$lastactivetime = vbdate($vboptions['timeformat'], $todayuser[lastactivity]);
if (($todayuser['invisible']) and ($bbuserinfo['usergroupid']!=6)) {
$numbertodayonlineinvisible++;
continue;
}
if (($todayuser['invisible']) and ($bbuserinfo['usergroupid']==6)) { // Invisible User but show to Admin
$invisibleuser = '*';
}




-----------
In case my copying and pasting are screwy, what needs to be fixed is the query. It needs to check the options field in the table. invisible was a vb2 field and isn't in vb3. It also needs to change the if statements because invisible will not equal 1. It just won't equal zero.

I also moved the templates to the cache on my board, but didn't bother with the phrases. Things seem to be working ok now.

Amy

[amykhar]

Another glitch. This one in the forumhome_todayloggedinusers template.

Find:

Number of Active Users Today: $numbertodayonline</b></div>


Replace with:


Number of Active Users Today: $todayonline</b></div>

[uae]

Thanks Gary ...

[Boofo]

This is off a bit, I think. My unigue registered users shows 1 today (reason=crappy site ;)) and this hack shows 2. Also, can someone fix the most users on a single day time to follow what we have set for the board (like detailed time, etc.)?

[trackpads]

Mine too, it shows 20 but this script shows 23, not sure. Nice hack though!

[himerus]

Is it possible to run the queries from the php_include_start template? I'd like to use this, but I'd like to avoid hacking the actual PHP files. I've done a few hacks to my board that were originally file hacks, and I was able to modify them to pull the data in the php_incllude sections.

If it can be, what is the variable to control it only being called on the index....

something like:

if ($page = 'INDEX')
{
get 24 hr users
}

[aidler]

Invisible users show for all and not just admins. The fix is as follows:

Find:

$todayusers=$DB_site->query("SELECT userid, username, usergroupid, lastactivity FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."user
WHERE lastactivity > " . (mktime(0,0,0,date("m"),date("d"),date("Y")) + (($bbuserinfo['timezoneoffset']-$timeoffset)*3600)) . "
ORDER BY username");
while ($todayuser=$DB_site->fetch_array($todayusers)) {
$numbertodayonline++;
$invisibleuser = '';
$userid = $todayuser['userid'];
$lastactivetime = vbdate($vboptions['timeformat'], $todayuser[lastactivity]);
if ($todayuser['invisible']==1) and ($bbuserinfo['usergroupid']!=6) {
$numbertodayonlineinvisible++;
continue;
}
if ($todayuser['invisible']==1) { // Invisible User but show to Admin
$invisibleuser = '*';
}



Replace with:

$todayusers=$DB_site->query("SELECT userid,(user.options & $_USEROPTIONS[invisible]) AS invisible, username, usergroupid, lastactivity FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."user
WHERE lastactivity > " . (mktime(0,0,0,date("m"),date("d"),date("Y")) + (($bbuserinfo['timezoneoffset']-$timeoffset)*3600)) . "
ORDER BY username");
while ($todayuser=$DB_site->fetch_array($todayusers)) {
$numbertodayonline++;
$invisibleuser = '';
$userid = $todayuser['userid'];
$lastactivetime = vbdate($vboptions['timeformat'], $todayuser[lastactivity]);
if (($todayuser['invisible']) and ($bbuserinfo['usergroupid']!=6)) {
$numbertodayonlineinvisible++;
continue;

Your modification is not working. I'm getting a MySQL error.

[Link14716]

That's a whole lot of information. :rolleyes:

[Boofo]

Your modification is not working. I'm getting a MySQL error.
I am using the same mod and it works fine here. What is the error you are getting? Can you post it and maybe we can help.

[ogden2k]

Gary, have you updated your attachment so we don't have to apply all of these fixes?

[Mamochka]

Good job. Work easy and fine.

[bspiller82]

THanks. I have also been awaiting for this one as I used it in my 2.x days :)

[Boofo]

Gary, are you still suppoerting this hack? If so, you need to fix it. The recordusers keeps resetting itself daily.

[monstergamer]

to make this hack were it can collapse
also in my code i took out the
Most users ever online on a day was $todayrecordusers on $todayrecorddate.
you can take a look at www.monstergamer.net/vb/index.php (http://www.monstergamer.net/vb/index.php)

go to forumhome_todayloggedinusers

replace all with
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class="thead" colspan="2">
<a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onClick="return toggle_collapse('forumhome_todayactiveusers')"><img id="collapseimg_forumhome_todayactiveusers" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_thead$vbcollapse[collapseimg_forumhome_todayactiveusers].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
Users Been on Today: $numbertodayonline
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
<tbody id="collapseobj_forumhome_todayactiveusers" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_forumhome_todayactiveusers]">
<tr>
<td class="alt1" colspan="6"><div class="smallfont">
<strong><nobr>The following members have already visited the forums today:</nobr></strong><br />
$todayloggedinuser<br />
</div></td>
</tr>
</tbody>

[Gary King]

I'll be working on the hack in a bit, so stay tooned for a new release of this hack :)

[Gary King]

Newest version has been released! I hope you guys like it ;)

By the way, phrases support will be added in a little later (hopefully within the next hour or so) I just had to release this one before I left the computer for a bit :))

[Gary King]

This is off a bit, I think. My unigue registered users shows 1 today (reason=crappy site ;)) and this hack shows 2. Also, can someone fix the most users on a single day time to follow what we have set for the board (like detailed time, etc.)?
I think it already does follow the date / time formatting? :)

[Gary King]

Phrases support now available :D

[squawell]

nice hack~Gray!:D:D

* squawell clicked install....

[monstergamer]

good work
like it better since you can collapse it now :)

[Davey-UK]

Would it be difficult to integrate this into a non-Vb page?

[Gary King]

Would it be difficult to integrate this into a non-Vb page?
Non vB, or just a separate page by itself like the original hack for vB 2 was able to? (But still a part of vBulletin)?

[Davey-UK]

Just as a standalone page, such as the index page of your site instead of actually having to go to the forum to see it.

ok, well on the original What's Going On
Most users ever online was 44, 15th October 2003 at 7:25.

On your hack it says (at time of posting this)
Most users ever online on a day was 14 on 7th January 2004

I know thats from when i installed your hack but is there anyway to sync them as untill i get 44 users back in 1 day they dont match up and look silly.

[The Quibbler]

*clicks install*

Great hack, worked perfectly for me :)

[Zeitgeist]

For those who want to remove the space between the username and the following "," open the template "forumhome_todayloggedinuser" and delete the last invisible line at the bottom of the text.

[idwf]

using it. thanks :)

[SnowBot]

Why are some of the user titles bold and others are not, i mean the ones in the same usergroup?

[Kewl]

Great hack! I have been wanting this one

One question though
now that in vb3 you gotta run an install script for some hacks if you decide you want to unistall how do you do that?

Thanks

dumb question though

I can't figure how to add a template in vb3

I bet I am looking right at it but can't find it

How could it be done with an include on my sites homepage? (Not VB).

I managed it with the 2x version, but have since lost the file.

[ogden2k]

How do you uninstall this?

[Zelda-King]

dumb question though

I can't figure how to add a template in vb3

I bet I am looking right at it but can't find itIt's in the style option dropdown menu. You need to scroll up to see 'Add Template'.

[gmarik]

This is the one we all love.

[Gary King]

How do you uninstall this?
There is an uninstall option in the installer.

[Zeitgeist]

Sorry, but hack is not working correctly. It resets the most online users on a day-statistic always at midnight. But in vB2 which is nearly the same code it works perfectly. What's the reason for this?

[Gio Takahashi]

It WAS working correctly for me, Zeit. Explain more.

[Kewl]

There is an uninstall option in the installer.
Thanks did not know that

hack works GREAT!

[Kewl]

It's in the style option dropdown menu. You need to scroll up to see 'Add Template'.
Thanks got it

[Kewl]

I noticed 2 things from last hack

1- Most ever on-line resets everyday and starts over . Am I doing something wrong?
2- In the ver for 2.0 if you highlighted the person it showed what time they were last there also

Thanks

[Zeitgeist]

1- Most ever on-line resets everyday and starts over . Am I doing something wrong?That's the same problem I'm having, too. The hack isn't working! Didn't the author noticed that? Where's the bug? :ermm:

[eXtremeTim]

That's the same problem I'm having, too. The hack isn't working! Didn't the author noticed that? Where's the bug? :ermm:
I have the same problem as them. The most users ever online in a day resets at midnight.

I will look and see if i can figure out what is going on in a little while.

[Zeitgeist]

I have the same problem as them. The most users ever online in a day resets at midnight.

I will look and see if i can figure out what is going on in a little while.
Thanks, extreme. I think you can compare the code from the vB 2.x.x hack with this new hack and so you might be able to find the wrong code in this hack.

[Jean147]

was looking for that. Thx a lot. :top

[eXtremeTim]

Fixed it.

Here are my changes

Find:
if ((int)$maxusers['maxonline'] <= $totalonline)
{
$time = time();
$maxloggedin = "$totalonline " . $time . " " . $maxusers['maxonline'] . " " . $maxusers['maxonlinedate'];
$maxusers[0] = $totalonline;
$maxusers[1] = $time;
}

Replace with:
if (intval($maxusers['maxonline']) <= $totalonline)
{
$maxusers[0] = $totalonline;
$maxusers[1] = TIMENOW;
}

Now Find:
if ((int)$maxusers[2] <= $numbertodayonline) {
$time = time();
$maxloggedin = $maxusers[0] . " " . $maxusers[1] . " $numbertodayonline " . $time;
$maxusers[2] = $numbertodayonline;
$maxusers[3] = $time;
}

Replace with:
if (intval($maxusers['maxonline']) <= $totalonline) {
$maxloggedin = $maxusers[0] . " " . $maxusers[1] . " $numbertodayonline " . TIMENOW;
$maxusers[2] = $numbertodayonline;
$maxusers[3] = TIMENOW;
$DB_site->query("REPLACE INTO " . TABLE_PREFIX . "datastore (title, data) VALUES ('maxloggedin', '" . addslashes(serialize($maxusers)) . "')");
}

[Zeitgeist]

Sorry, it doesn't work. It resets the date to 01-01-1970 and hides the most users ever online on a day completly.

[eXtremeTim]

This hack only works if whosonline is on so make sure that you have it turned on.

[eXtremeTim]

I have not been able to recreate your problem I have check all the code im using and this looks like the only parts i changed. Check and make sure you did the replaces correctly.

[Zeitgeist]

That's a screenshot of my forum after replacing the variables with yours. I'm 100% sure that I've made exactly what you've posted. Who's online is enabled and I haven't made any other changes to index.php *confused*

Mind posting the whole whosonline block of code you have? I will compare it to mine and see if there are anymore differences. That way i can see if you messed up or if i left something out or if its working becuase of some other change i have done on my board. Seing as my board is already heavily modified. You can check it out on mine running the code i have posted. http://www.extremechatforums.com/forum/index.php

I've used another hack from vBulletin.nl now(http://www.vbulletin.nl/community/showthread.php?t=1475). At the moment it's working perfectly. I'll see what will happen if we reach 0:00 ... This hack here resets the statistics every day on this time.

No that shouldn't happen, and as for the problem with counting the most users online on one day record, I will see what I can do to fix this :)

Wow I'm not even sure if that has anything to do with this hack, or you didn't decribe the problem accurately :surprised:

has this been updated so nolonger resets itself?

[firefighter99]

This hack seems to have a bug. I installed it and it seem to work just fine, but everyday the "Most users ever online on a day was..." get's recounted. The hack doesnt seem to save the last record from the day with the most members being online.

You might wanna look into this. vbb3 RC2+ your last release..........

Yeah I'm working on this at the moment, but also have many other things to do. I will send an update when this has been fixed, so if you guys want to be notified about this then you will have to hit the Install button.

Gary, thanks for all the hard work!

[mikeB]

where does the "installer.php" go - in the instructions it says /forum/admin/ folder - does that mean admincp folder?

[NTLDR]

Yep the admincp directory or whatever you have renamed it too :)

No that's a bug, I've been busy with other things and I've been working on this as well, but if someone else would like to help out and add instructions on how to fix this problem then that'd be great too :)

[Boofo]

Maybe you ought to move this to Beta Hacks until all the bugs are out of it?

[Gary King]

Maybe you ought to move this to Beta Hacks until all the bugs are out of it?
Or maybe I could take out the feature of recording the max users online on one day, that's another option :) Either way though is fine with me, just until I find the time to work on this some more.

[ogden2k]

What's the point of the installer? I don't want to bother with this if I have to use an installer.

Also, what's the point of having "The most online users ever?" when vB has it built in? How do we remove this query?

The installer is for phrases support - it installs the phrases for you, instead of having you add about 5-10 phrases manually. It simplifies life :p

Also, it's not most online users ever, it is "Most Online Users Ever on One Day".

[ogden2k]

What's the call for the title tag to show when the user was last online? The one for vb2x showed the last time the user was online when you hovered over their name.

[Gary King]

It does for this version too.

[ogden2k]

Hmm, I must of left it out on accident then. Did you get the bug resolved with the users not getting reset after midnight?

[budlite74]

??? bump

[Lissa]

This should be in beta releases. It doesn't keep track of "most users ever online." Yesterday I had 250 members visit. Today it says "most users ever online was 105. Everyone else is having the same problem.

You going to fix it?

[Zelda-King]

I find it quite ambiguous as it shows right under the "Who's Online" 'most users ever online' and the figure tends to be lower for me in 'Online Today' at the moment.

[dookie]

This hack doesn?t work.
After I installed it, it works perfectly. But since midnight the number of active users today is 0 and no active users are displayed. Take a look at www.devinity.de

I saw this on another board too. This is really a beta Hack.



//edit: It doesn?t work between 0:00 and 1:00 @ night. Any ideas?

[apokphp]

/clicks Uninstall.

Terribly supported. Doesn't work. Too much time passes without a fix.

I'll check back if it is moved to full releases.

Just edit the usergroups :)

When are you going to fix the issue with the Current active users today not resetting itself after midnight??

[trackpads]

Gary, I upgraded to RC3, reinstalled the latest version above but now when I hold my cursor over the names it doesnt give me the last on time anymore.

Any idea what I have done wrong?

Thanks again

(Keeps Bashing "Install")

[DigitalEclipse]

I installed it and I'm having the same problem with the most users in a day reseting. The other Admin on my site is great with PHP and is going to take a look at it and see if he can fix it. If/When he does, I'll post it.

NP, its driving me crazy too. I dont have a huge board, so this was a tool I was using to show people that the board was active and get more people to register/post.

[Gary King]

I fixed 'Most users online on a day' so please re-download this guys ;)

[eXtremeTim]

Its about time. :) Its good to hear that it is fixed.

[Gary King]

You would hope so, huh? ;)
Also this seems pretty negative, same with most of your other responses regarding this hack :) Hopefully you don't have any grudges against some lines of code? ;)

[DigitalEclipse]

I just put it on mine. We'll find out if its working at midnight. Thanks Gary.

Edit: I adjusted my time zone settings to test it and it does work. Thanks Gary!!

[thuffner]

Thanks for the update Gary. It works great so far! ;):)

[Gary King]

Glad I could help :D

[ogden2k]

How about the issue with the hack not resetting Active Users today? That seems to be the more important part of the hack....

[DTC]

Is there anyway to get the Number of Active Users Today: total to count invisible users?

Even though we don't display the usernames to most usergroups, it should still count them in the totals, no?

[Gary King]

How about the issue with the hack not resetting Active Users today? That seems to be the more important part of the hack....
That's already fixed.

[ogden2k]

I have it installed now, but the hack says there have been 37 users online, but, in my ACP this is what it says:
Unique Registered Visitors Today 35

It looks like something is off..?

[Gary King]

Yeah it's with the time I believe; as in, the acp calculates 'today' differently from this hack of mine.

[elefekt]

Maybe its just the one i downloaded but where it has:

$lastactivetime = vbdate($vboptions['timeformat'], $todayuser[lastactivity]);

you have to add the quote marks where it says lastactivity --------^

$lastactivetime = vbdate($vboptions['timeformat'], $todayuser['lastactivity']);

It's not entirely necessary, only for certain key names.

[ogden2k]

This still is not working. My server is set to EST -5, and in the ACP it's set to -5 and my time zone is set to -5. Half of the Active Users today from yesterday are showing today....

[astra-sri]

Can anyone help with this? I've just installed the hack and it's not displaying properly. Everything else is fine.

[Lissa]

Ok, maybe I'm being anal, but look at the attached screenshot. See the circled area? It doesn't exactly fit in with the rest of the design of vBulletin. Maybe you should make it so that "who was online today" will indent and fit vBulletin's style. :nervous:

[Boofo]

Just do a <td>&nbsp;</td> in there and that should take care of it.

Try adding the phrases manually. I have updated the hack instructions because seems like several people were having this issue (but what's even stranger is that after an hour or two it seems to fix itself, that happened on my forums and on another as well :confused:).

Anyways, as I said, re-download instructions.txt and add the phrases manually; also, delete the old ones if you have to.

[astra-sri]

Thanks mate.

That's worked :)

The phrases are missing on mine I think since I redid the install...

How do I manually add the phrases? I know that I goto the phrase manager and click add new phrase but :

what phrase type?

what Varname?

what text?

I also re read through the next install.txt file and all I see are the phrases (but not the rest of how to add them), sorry for the stupid question but I'm new to this

Also if you click on some of the usernames at the bottom it shows their last active date as being 2/13/04 and today is the 14th hmmm just wondering?

Phrase type, use GLOBAL, varname is the text before the / and text is after that.

Thanks for answering such a ridiculous question I figured it out right after I posted and I apologize...

Because the hack checks 'today' differently from the actual server times, etc. so it would probably be a few hours off.

installed and working took 5 mins thankyou gary appreciated m8

[trilOByte]

Is there any way to get this to reset to different timezones? My site is for the UK (server is in the US) and this seems to start it's daily calculation at about 5am GMT (which is roughly midnight where my server is). Also, the last activity "mouseover" doesnt reflect the difference in timezones - it's 5hrs out for 99% of my users.

What I would like is the count to reset itself to mkidnight GMT, not midnight server time, and the last activity to reflect GMT not EST.

[M.C.]

start making phrases self and then saw, that you already add that to hack ;) Cool!

Just question - is that hack add query to DB and if yes how many...

And last - can you do it like it was on vB2., when list of online users can be shown on single page (like onlinetoday.php) instead of index.php?

Thanks!

[bigreefer]

Nice Hack thx for it.

But I have a question.

What that means ? ---> Most users ever online on a day was {1} on {2}.

Every Day the "Most users ever online on a day was {1} on {2}." reset to 0.
Why ? I want that the user record to stand remains.

who can I do this ?

Sorry for my bad English.

I don't use vbadvanced, but I'm sure it isn't too complicated. Just add the required code for this hack, into the index.php for vbadvanced and then put the template additions into a custom block in vbadvanced, or wherever you want it to show up.

Also FYI, vbindex supports 'Who was online today on forums' :)

Is there a way to make this hack reflective of actual numbers? Here is what I mean. Under "Currently Active Users" on my site it says there was 55 members in Nov. 2003. Under "Number of Active Users Today" it says 34. That seems a bit incorrect. Is there a way to resolve this?

That's strange because I find the code just fine in vB3 Gold :)

That's strange because I find the code just fine in vB3 Gold :)I'll redownload it, its probably me :P


EDIT : I done it! It turns out, i was using the wrong index.php. :nervous:

[MooMan65]

Hrm. I'm having a problem which is probably just because I'm doing something silly on my part, but it's worth a shot.

I've never been able to get this hack to work, I've run the query, edited the index.php file, added and modified the templates and added in the phrases and yet, while it displays all phrases and template-based things correctly, it refuses to parse the PHP code. At least I think it is, as I'm never getting any Usernames in the list or numbers in the stats. I've tried multiple times but with no success either way.

I'm trying to do an install from scratch on vB3 Gold btw.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! It does sound like I'm doing something wrong in the php file mods, or maybe the query, but I'm not too sure.

First, let me state that this is an awesome hack, and that I would like to keep it. Thanks to the author and all coders for their work, fixes and improvements.

"Most members ever online on a day" works now. Invisible users are suppressed what is great. The formatting of special users (such as moderators, administrators, &c.) in bold, italics, &c. works, too. The layout is great.

There is, however, still a problem related to time zones. It doesn't matter to what one sets the Default Time Zone Offset in the Admin CP: there are always problems. For demonstration purposes, I set it to GMT:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=17505&stc=1

Every member has now the possibility to define his own Time Zone in the User CP under Edit Options. If I set it to GMT, this is what I get:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=17506&stc=1

If I set it to GMT-9, this is the result:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=17507&stc=1

And worst, and that's the real problem, if I set it to GMT+9, this is the result:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachment.php?attachmentid=17508&stc=1

The results obviously depend on the time of the day, but there are always Time Zones for which 0 members are displayed (and this state can last for hours), albeit there are even members online and active at the moment, regardless to what one sets the Default Time Zone Offset in the Admin CP.

Can some advanced coder maybe fix this for all of us who love this hack, please? :)

(Automatic and static DST offsets in the Admin CP and User CP would have to be considered as well, I assume, but I'm no coder.)

Actually, if possible, best would be if the hack would be totally dynamic, i. e. if it displayed the users of the last 24 hours for everyone, regardless of his time zone.

Thanks for all your efforts. Much appreciated. ;)

[dillon]

It seems like I've got my working. However, the Admin/Mods aren't showing up in bold/italics. Any suggestions? I replaced my existing code in index.php as suggested earlier in this thread, but that didn't work.
Thanks.

[Yuber]

PLEASE CLICK THE INSTALL BUTTON IF INSTALLED! :)

What does this hack do?

It shows the users who visited your forums in the last 24 hours (or today). This hack works similiarly like the one released for vBulletin 2.

NOTE: If you want to show 'Who was online today' on a separate page from forumhome, then download instructions-newpage.txt and onlinetoday.php instead of instructions-regular.txt

Modifications
1 file modification 3 template modifications 0 queries to run

Features
supports and uses phrases
usernames are formatted properly
invisible users only show to people who are supposed to see them (admins and whoever else you allowed)
integrated (makes it so that the Who Was Online bar is now collapseable :)


Screenshots
Look below :)

Credits: Thanks goes to Mystics, where this hack is based on his :)
Thanks for the hack. Will this work with vB 3.0.0 Gold?

[sabret00the]

anyway managed to get this to work on the WOL / online.php yet :(

Ah, your original post should have had 'anyway' be 'anyone' you mean, right?

[BlackxRam]

Ok... can someone please either upload correct DIRECTIONS for this hack or is there a better one out there? Im not sure if theres 15 pages of errors to be fixed... whats the deal with this hack.... shouldnt this be in BETA?!?!

[joeychgo]

it works fine for gold as is.

What bugs..?

[Ocean]

This is a nice hack!


But, out of curiosity, what needs to be done in order to make it so that this hack is only visible by Admins or certain User Groups?

In the template, put around the code:

<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo,6) OR is_member_of($bbuserinfo,X)"><!-- code goes here --></if>

That's for admins and 1 extra usergroup, replace X with the usergroup ID besides 6.

[Ocean]

That did the job perfectly.


Thanks, and thanks for a great hack! :)

yup my mind was elsewhere :o

[vhoang]

How come i downloaded the hack on 3/28 and installed it successfully but it resets at midnite? From what i have read in this thread, Gary should have fixed the problem.

Whats wrong with me? Did i get the un-updated instruction?

[vhoang]

I have another problem, that is, when i change time-zone, for some timezones it doesnt show any active users (it said 0 and list noone) while there r definitely many users that logged in.

Anyone knows what's going on?

Hi Gary,

thanks for this nice hack. But I have a problem. Every day 0:00 the saved number of visitors refreshs to 0. The entries aren't saved correctly. Did I make a mistake somwhere during installing this hack?

Best Regards

Sebastian

[Ocean]

Well, Karatekid - for what it's worth, I prefer it that way.


After all, this hack is Who Was Online Today, not Who Was Online in the Last 24 Hours.

So, for me, I actually *do* want it to reset at midnight. But that's just my own opinion. :)

oh I'm sorry. I meant the record is reset every day.

[Tri@de]

Great!
Installed! :)

[Ocean]

oh I'm sorry. I meant the record is reset every day.

Ah! Now, I understand. :)

Well, for what it's worth - I installed this yesterday, and today it's still showing yesterday for the Record of Most Users Ever Online in a Day. So, if there is still a glitch - it doesn't appear to be affecting all installations.

[trafix]

i just installed ... but

it shows this..

Number of Active Users Today: 0

Most users ever online on a day was 12 on Yesterday. | The following members have already visited the forums today:

But no names are being displayed ... is this dynamic?

Yep it's dynamic. Are you checking it at midnight or something when it just reset itself? :)

[Gary King]

For those who are having reset problems, make sure you run the query required.

[Hellburn]

I dont know what this hack do at the full releases forum. The user record reset at midnigt and the newpage shows difference todayusernumber how to the index.php. The hack from Mystics works fine but this is only a beta in my eyes.

Did you run the query? And I'm not really supporting the newpage since I only made it because someone requested it, although it should be working fine.

[Hellburn]

Yes i have run the query. Now i have tested the instructions-normal.txt and he dont reset at midnight but the instructions-newpagedeutsch.txt reset at midnight.

ok so far so goos .... lets see what happens tonight

[KarateKid]

I ran the query too, but the record is still resetting all night...

as you can see here: http://www.kampfkunst-board.info/forum/index.php

I installed it somedays ago and had at least a record about 500 active users yesterday, but today the record has been resetted again. :disappointed:

[Zero Tolerance]

It comes to my attention why exactly do you not use this for max user's online in a day

<phrase 1="$recordusers" 2="$recorddate" 3="$recordtime">$vbphrase[most_users_ever_online_was_x_y_at_z]</phrase>

As your method is incorrect O_o'

I know this is correct, because i use it for the welcome box i made on my forum, plus it will be more optomized if you do use it, because there is no need for any queries or code execution, since its already in vB :)

If anyone wants the corrected version + optomized, do these edits:

Change template 'forumhome_todayloggedinusers'
To this:
<tbody>
<tr>
<td class="thead" colspan="2">
<a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onClick="return toggle_collapse('forumhome_todayactiveusers')"><img id="collapseimg_forumhome_todayactiveusers" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_thead$vbcollapse[collapseimg_forumhome_todayactiveusers].gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
$vbphrase[active_users_today]: $todayonline
</td>
</tr>
</tbody>
<tbody id="collapseobj_forumhome_todayactiveusers" style="$vbcollapse[collapseobj_forumhome_todayactiveusers]">

<tr>

<td class="alt2"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_statusicon]/forum_link.gif" alt=" Number of Active Users Today" border="0" /></td>

<td class="alt1" colspan="0"><div class="smallfont">
<phrase 1="$recordusers" 2="$recorddate" 3="$recordtime">$vbphrase[most_users_ever_online_was_x_y_at_z]</phrase> |
$vbphrase[already_visited_today]:<br />
$todayloggedinuser<br />
</div></td>
</tr>
</tbody>

Open index.php:
Find:
// ### MAX LOGGEDIN USERS TODAY ################################
$todaymaxusers = unserialize($datastore['todaymaxonline']);
if (intval($todaymaxusers['todaymaxonline']) <= $todaynumberregistered)
{
$todaymaxusers['todaymaxonline'] = $todaynumberregistered;
$todaymaxusers['todaymaxonlinedate'] = mktime(0, 0, 0, date('m'), date('d'), date('Y'));
$DB_site->query("REPLACE INTO " . TABLE_PREFIX . "datastore (title, data) VALUES ('todaymaxonline', '" . addslashes(serialize($todaymaxusers)) . "')");
}

$todayrecordusers = $todaymaxusers['todaymaxonline'];
$todayrecorddate = vbdate($vboptions['dateformat'], $todaymaxusers['todaymaxonlinedate'], 1);

Remove it

Save and upload, thats it :)

[KarateKid]

hm, that doesn't change anything with my problem!??!

[Hellburn]

I dont understand why the userrecord reset at midnigt by the newpage.txt. Nobody a fix for this problem?
