I've installed it and in general it works fine. However, I am having one problem.
Actually it's the same problem I've had with the vBShout, which you can read about in that thread. In a nutshell, whenever someone was on my forums home page, if you looked at Who's Online it would say they were viewing the shoutbox. The link would be to the forums home page, though. I tested this myself, on myself, by going to the forums home page, refreshing, then going straight to Who's Online. Sure enough, there it says I'm viewing the shoutbox, with a link to the forums home page.
Now that I've installed this add-on, the problem has been expanded to my main cmps page, too. If I'm looking at that page, then jump to Who's Online, it says I'm looking at the shoutbox, with a link to my main cmps page.
I don't consider this to be a problem with this add-on, I think it's simply an effect of a problem/issue with the underlying vBShout hack. I've checked the hack's plugins to the Who's Online system, and compared to others, and both are fine. As far as I can tell, there's no problem with the plugins. I don't even know for sure that the problem is the hack itself; it could be something with vBulletin--I'm starting to think that if a page (like index.php) gets output from another page (like vbshout.php), then for some reason vBulletin considers vbshout.php to be the page the viewer is on.
Whatever the problem is, although I've documented and explained it, I have yet to get any help or suggestions. Maybe, FleaBag, you could have those people over at vBadvanced, who wrote this add-on, look into it, if they're familiar with the hack already? :)
