HuangA:

You can make a sum of deviding the total new threads / total forums, and then add that value on top of the real total threads per forum value. Same for x viewing and x posts, etc. I think this is overkill which is why I haven't included it.

most users online was existing value + fake value. This way it always matches the currently online was as a higher value. . i think. I will look into this too.

That's a nice idea, and currently not an option but I will look into it. If you figured out how to do it let me know and we will review it for inclusion.

as a option maybe you could include a box where we can type the name we want .
also most user online dont change for me would be nice to have a way to upgrade the numbers.
but anyway thanks for this mod help make some of my small forum alive in combination with rss feed.

Floris, I already got the most user online thing added. And the way I solved the post count not adding up problem is added a config option for user to choose which forum to 'dump' the posts into. It must be a forum that have its count showing on forumhome though, because I got it to add the number during forumbit_parse hook, and so it won't check your subforums on forumhome (where it really matters).

Next part is to edit forumdisplay to check whether or not it is the 'dump' forum and make it always add the extra posts in the 'showing x of y' part at bottom.

Edit: done as well, you have the latest, just export away when you're ready ;)

Comment about the admincp help. It appears that 3.5 allows you to export the admincp help items, but it doesn't import them. So .. we have to manually do this now.

yourforum.com/dir/admincp/help.php?do=files enter this url manually in the admincp and import the vbulletin-adminhelp-fake.xml file.

Thanks MarcoH64 for helping out :)

That's what I've made so far, an input box where nicks can be entered. But .. where do you want these nicks to link to? :)

Becareful there, if you link to a real user profile, it'll be bad because if someone follow the link, your last activity will be when you last did something, which may or may not be within the cookie timeout (IE: wtf, current online 2 users, me and this other user, but the other user haven't moved since 3 days ago!) and you can't really fake an entry in the WOL/online.php with the fake usernames (location won't be easy to change without increasing load, and again, time issue). If you really want to fake users, I strongly advice the invisible user feature because that's most 'realistic' and only your mod/admin/those that you grant access to see invisible users will be able to see something 'strange' (3 users online, just my name listed, no name* listed).

was thinking of maybe 2 option point to a :
1.you do not have permission to access this page or member profile.

or maybe the members names I enter could be actually members I register manually and the names can point to there profiles .
(I will try to find how to Add new Users automatically)

New users>
AdminCP > Users > Add User

One idea I have is to include the nicks from the showgroups.php pages (staff) as these are real users and should be online anyway. However, to get this done it requires one or more queries and I am trying to avoid queries alltogether.
