Thank you very much for this enhancement! :)
|
installed! Thanks
|
Where does this information show up in my thread? I have it active and have given the proper permissions, etc. The "Show Users Browsing Threads" is active.I don't see it. Help!!
|
Is there ANY support for this hack at all?

I'm seeing some inconsistent behavior with this mod. I'm at the latest vB version (3.7.1 PL2). Several times yesterday, I was watching a particular thread on my site. There were users who were shown in the "Currently Active Users Viewing This Thread" section, yet they were not being shown in the "Members who have read this thread" section right below. For most users, this worked fine; they showed up in both. In some (but not all) cases, those users had been to that thread in the past, and if I clicked on their username for it to pop up the last threads they have visited, it would show the time in the past that they visited that thread, but not the current visit that they were on right now.
I optimized/repaired all tables, reset all counters, and still saw this behavior again afterwards. I'll take a screenshot the next time I see it, but hopefully my description above is reasonably clear. EDIT: Screenshot attached. My cursor is over the "Eye-a-tollah you buddy" user, and it is showing last visit date of May 21st. He visited the forum, and that specific thread, today. I saw his user ID in the "currently active users viewing this thread" section directly above. Yet his userID wasn't being updated in the "who have read this thread" section. My "who have read this thread" section is sorted by date, not username, so it was easy to see that it wasn't updating correctly. |
The data is updated after the thread is displayed.
|
OK, but the thread was displayed yesterday, and it's still not updated. It never updated, that's the problem. It still says the last time he was at that thread was May 21st, but I saw him visit it on June 18th. I was sitting there watching the screen, refreshed it multiple times, never updated. And it still hasn't.
This may just be coming to light because it's now a requirement to have that "currently viewing this thread" field right there and visible. I have had a hunch for awhile that the "who has read a thread" field may be missing users, as I would send out email links directly to threads, users would come to the site in response, yet it would look as if they only came to the home page and not that thread; their usernames never showed up. That's only a hunch and can't be proven, because if I don't know if they didn't go there, I can't confirm that their username was omitted. But now, I can, just by looking right above. |
Its not possible to "miss users" if they have actually displayed the thread. The data is updated by the showthread_complete hook, which is called just before the page is output. The only way for it not to happen is if something [else] breaks the plugin/hook.
|
Then something else is evidently breaking the plug-in/hook. I'll take more screenshots when I see the same behavior again. Any suggestions on how to find what else may be using or affecting that hook? I don't have a highly modified board, and most of the hacks (at least most of the useful ones) are yours anyway.
