If you want to remove showing the Ticker in "Who-is-online" completely, do this:

Open ticker2.php:

Search for

Code:

error_reporting(7);

and add BELOW it

Code:

$tickerstart=1;

Open sessions.php:

Search for

Code:

if ($templateversion > '2.0.1') { // Use location!

and replace it with

Code:

if ($templateversion > '2.0.1' AND $tickerstart==0) { // Use location!

Then upload both files.

If you just want to show the correct location, do this:

Open online.php

Find this

Code:

  default:

    $userinfo[activity] = 'unknown';

  }

BEFORE that, add this:

Code:

  case 'ticker2.php':

    $userinfo[activity] = 'ticker';

    break;

Then find this:

Code:

    default:

      // Let's show the admin the location but put something false up for everyone else..

      if ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] == 6) {

         $userinfo[location] = htmlspecialchars(stripslashes(replacesession($userinfo[location])));

        $userinfo[where] = "<b>Unknown Location:</b> <a href=\"$userinfo[location]\">$userinfo[location]</a>";

      } else {

        // We were unable to parse the location

        $userinfo[where] = "$bbtitle <a href='index.php?s=$session[sessionhash]'>Main Index</a>";;

      }

BEFORE that, add this:

Code:

    case 'ticker':

      $userinfo[where] = "Watching the <a href='ticker2.php?s=$session[sessionhash]'>Ticker</a>";

      break;

Greetingz,

Yeah, your are right, but nevertheless he should include my changes ('If you just want to show the correct location, do this: ')

Then the Admin and the users got the correct location shown in Who-is-online.

Very cool. I just changed the refresh and fixed the images and it works wonderfully.

I'm concerned about what was said earlier though...if private forum posts are visible, that's not good :)

Dark Reaper, mine only shows threads that the user has access to. If I am not logged in, I cannot see the moderator board posts. If I am logged in I can see all of the threads from all of the boards. There shouldn't be any problem with security on this.

Mystics, thank you. There is one problem with your script though. When I modify the ticker2.php and sessions.php, it still shows the same error. I modified the online.php and now it shows that the user is viewing the ticker. I don't know why it still won't show the exact location for the user. I use VB 2.03, could that have an effect on it?

andrew67, there is a very good reason why this needs to be corrected. If I am trying to track the location of a member, I need to know where they are if they have the ticker running or not. The way it is now, if someone has the ticker running, I lose the use of the Who's Online page.

Mystics and wluke, I think the modification should be added to the original hack.

I once saw something similar to this used for on some SOF site with newspro. lovin it for vB :D

You are right.. I didn't think about Who is Online. Frankly because I don't use it because I don't need that much control over my users. They pretty much police themselves and everything stays in line.

I will work on adding the other features though as well as making it a template.

The session.php and other changes will most likely not work in versions before 2.2.0 because of changes in the code. This has not been tested on any version except 2.2.1. If you make those changes in a prior version you are on your own. Sorry.

Like I incorporate the Ticker on the Board on the head page: Source code favor as an example Large

Big Thx

For those of you who have phpMyChat (integrated with the vB database!), this shows who's active in chat:

where do i get ticker.php?
