Your Guest table (in mysql) has crashed - run a repair on it via the ACP.

ok i did that, mod is working fine now :-)
what should cause that? i hope it don't happen again :-)

thx !

cool
installed
but i didnt understand spider detection option

how it will work?

if i banned certain ip and that fellow in on as guest then can i know?or certain ip not banned?

wht abt this google spiders?

Tables crash sometimes, usually a server hiccup - that's why mysql has a repair command. :)

Thanks, always have used this hack.

[high]* PugWD marks installed. :up:

One thing I noticed though, I installed the Members version first and it immediately showed users from the previous day/24hours; this one however only showed the amount from the time I installed it.
I had 54 guests online at the time but it was only showing 2 from the previous 24 hours (now showing 56 online/35 in past 24hrs, five minutes later).


Also, I notice that it takes an extra five seconds or so to display the What's Going On after the main forum list comes in. What sort of extra overhead do these two products generate?
Reason I ask is because I'm still on shared hosting but am really pushing the limits of it with the size and traffic of my forum. :o

Thanks

i got a little issue, i don't know if someone else noticed it or ran into this problem. I just noticed today, it seems that on my board the google spider count doesn't increase after 1 person visits, it always shows 1. And i know that not only 1 google spider comes every day. so could someone please help me with this? thanking in advance!

I don't understand what you mean, how is people visiting related to google spiders ?

JFYI, google does not send many spiders to forums, esp smaller ones, one spider visits and does all the work (as opposed to yahoo, which floods you with spiders).

I saw multiple google spiders today but in guest track it only shows one and that's what i mean.

Today I had this error, I took the table backup from yesterday and Drop/reCreated it. All is well now. However, any ideas why this happened?

The table index crashed - that's just one of those things that happens with mysql, which is why it has a repair command. All you needed to do was repair it via the ACP.

any step by step procedure on this one? i transfered the file using smart FTP to my forum folder and when i open my vb options its not there?

No file transfers are required for this - you import the xml file using the plugin/product manager.

I have the same prob, and it has happened for 3 consecutive days. If I go offline for a few days no-one will be able to access the forum.

It seems strange that this has happened to a number of people and my self 3 times in a matter of a week..

Then you probably have a dodgy table. Backup the table, drop it, and then restore it from backup (we had to do the same here a couple of weeks ago when one of our custom tables kept crashing).

There is nothing strange about mysql table faults, they happen all the time.

realy nice ^_^

Thanks for the mod! I had this working before, but not I only get (x) Visitors and no actual names of the spiders, etc.. I have removed the members who visited today hack and am just running this but I still have the same problem... Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Sean

Paul, I have show spiders on in who's online options. I still get no spiders just guests.

I'm suddenly seeing this exact same problem. It has been working fine but now only showing (x) visitors and nothing else.

By the way, I did run repair on the guest table but it didn't seem to help. The message returned was that the table was OK.

Then something has been changed. Things don't just stop without a reason.

Who can argue with such logic. WOW...I should have thought about that. Sorry to have asked. I guess I kind of had hopes for finding out WHAT might have changed since I have added no new plugins or anything in a while. Oh well.

Thats what I was thinking :)

and how exactly would I know what you have changed.

You see Paul, you should be happy now. There are certain perks to being an Admin. You get to leave your own sarcastic responses and censor anybody who responds likewise back to you. See how easy it is for you to get the last word in? :up:

Yes, I'm very happy thanks.

The only sarcastic response in this thread btw is yours (see post 504).

Don't bother replying, any more off topic posts will be removed.

Love this! Current version installed, but I seem to be missing part of my admincp options for this. See image. This is the only options I have. Any suggestions?

That isn't the options page for this mod. ;)

Just read the Note above... never mind... lol

Cool mod, thanks

This mod is broken and I can see it gets NO SUPPORT from Paul. I have uninstalled this and installed fresh and it still doesn't work...

Where is the MARK AS BROKEN link?

I'd like to change my rating to POOR. How can I do that?

UNINSTALLED

Broken ? Well thats strange, because the person who posted above you seems to disagree. Strangely, it also seems to work on my forums, and many hundreds of others as well. Perhaps we are all mistaken, it's not really working at all.

Moving on, I see you then say it gets no support at all - again, this is most strange as I distinctly remember answering so many questions over the life of this modification, still, I guess I must be mistaken again.

A 'Mark as Broken Link' - for some bizarre reason, vbulletin.org don't actually provide such a link. If you think it would be useful then perhaps you can suggest it in the Site feedback Forum.

I'm afraid we don't allow members to change their rating. I'm not sure, but I think this is to prevent people from marking a modification as poor after they decide it doesn't work.

I'm glad to see you've uninstalled it - now I won't have to spend the rest of the week feeling terribly guilty that not only did something you got completely free not instantly work (it happens) - but even worse, you got no free support at all for your problem (possibly because you never asked). What a huge relief for me, I'm not sure how I would have coped.

I posted a few times about my issue... Go back and see.. you never replied a single time... I found your treatment of the other user having the same problem quite unacceptable which is why I posted. Anyway, in the future I'll just avoid any Paul M mods.

Have a great day!

Sean

It's working absolutely perfectly on my forum, the first time I installed it, and from the get go. Very glad to have it!! :)

Fringehead,
I finally figured out what was causing this problem in my case. I've sent you a PM. Hopefully it will help.

Don

You posted twice, while I was on holiday.

very nice, installed!

Just installed, no probs, works pretty fine. Very useful. it's 5 stars worthy.
