Thanks that works great best click install there aswell ;)


Iv noticed this spider product also detects JumpD's RSS article bot as an unknown spider.

I dont mind that as it shows that bots hit counter aswell but how would I add to the spiders xml file this bot which has an ip of 0.0.0.0 and i dont think it has an agent but I maybe wrong so it shows as say Articlebot instead of unknown ?

Tidy hack, thanks.

I notice that the last visited date is out though. I only installed a few minutes ago but the few spiders already listed are showing "Yesterday". Time is correct, but it should be "Today".

Clicked install...

Hi..

What i find intersting is the fact that all the spiders are showing as being online 20 hours ago...I know for a fact that most have been in all day long, they very rarely leave ;) so how can it be saying 20hrs ago or should i say why is it saying 20 when it clearly isnt lol

Please advise?

That is strange...

The only thing I can think is that the server time zone is set to something different from what yours is.

What the plugin does is write a record into the database, and the timestamp it uses is "NOW()", which is the current time. I think it uses the server's current time, but I'm not positive. So if the server's time is different from your time (if it's set to GMT, for example, and your time zone is GMT-4), then the times will be different.

I'll have a look to see if it can be set to the board's current time instead of using the "NOW()" function.

Hi mikelbeck

Cheers for the quick response...
The server is in the UK as i am therefore we are on the same timezone :)

Can you go into your admin control panel, click on "Maintenenace", then "Diagnostics", then select "MySQL Variables" in the "System Information" box and click "Submit". What value does it show for "timezone", and what is your timezone? And also, what is your forum's timezone set to?

Hi m8

MySQL Variables
system_time_zone GMT

My time zone is GMT
Forum Timezone is GMT also

I dont suppose this helps you any now does it lol
