Nice hack.

It would be even cooler if you had some sort of fading background color for the table cells or div tags, so you could easily see what was new.

I made a slight change to vaispy.php to wrap words a little better and removed my own preg_reaplce to use vB's code to remove quotes.

any idea why it won't work if I'm logged in?

Sorry, no idea.

ok so you have no plans on making this members only or giving it permissions?

I would consider it; although I would expect adding a couple lines of code to the script would take care of it (after the global.php include).

would suffice.

Mine definitely isn't working:

It's displaying just the one batch of posts, and the posts are from random times (like yesterday or months ago). What's going on?

Works great on my site... www.jaydabhi.com/forum/vaispy.php

Peace

a small fix...
in the by tab you have the userid pointing to the userid of the thread starter. It should be pointing to the guy who made the post..

change this in viaspy.php
find
make it


then find
replace with

grt addon though :) congrats :D

ps: i have it only for selected usergroups. For those who want permissions can simply do this

add this below
require_once('global.php') line in viaspy.php

//set up usergroup permissions for view

if (!is_member_of($vbulletin->userinfo , #usergroups to check#))
{
print_no_permission();
}

or

where spy_usergroups is admincp setting(make a new setting in admincp with same name) which contains comma separated list of allowed usergroups.(crude fix, best is to make a product and bitfield:D)

I modified the va_spy.js and vaispy.php script to include the change above and also add a date stamp to the entry.
