Thanks Paul for another great mod. This really ought to be part of core vB and I'm not surprised how much interest there has been.

One thing that caught me out and looking through the thread, it caught out a few other as well is that in order to display spiders, you must set AdminCP>vBulletin Options>Who's Online Options>Enable Spider Display to "Yes". Conversely, if you only want to see visitors and no spiders, set this to "No".

It's set to yes by default.

Also, don't get confused by what it does - all it means is Spiders will not be listed separately, they are still counted and listed as part of the visitors count.

Thanks Paul! I've been waiting for years for this mod. Works great! 8)

Installed :)

Thanks, Paul! Great Mod! Clicked Install :)

Doesn't work for me (nothing shows up). May be conflicting with another mod. It may be the template adds or something.

INSTALLED on 3.6.4 and works fine ;)

thx Paul

Where are the installation instructions? I Know most hacks works like by importing them from the product manager..but U didn't mention it whether it's a product or a plugin? and does it require any templates edit? please add this all in your release info :)

Thanks,

It's a product and no, it doesn't.

Is there a way to combine both registered and guests in the same drop down without creating 2 separate menus?

Well everyone else seems to have managed ok, but here you go .....

You also seem to have missed the "Mark as Installed" link ..........

:cool:

Great mod, thanks!

Mine only shows:

Total guests that have visited the forum in the last 24 hours: 1,498
Visitors (1498)

But it doesn't show any of the bots... any ideas?

Have you turned the option on in vBoptions.

Can the total of the guest visits be summed to the overall total of the registered visiters?

Yep, it's turned on. The only option that's no is:

"Guest Tracking - Collapse Display"

okie I installed and it's working fine :) BTW a "manual Prune log table" option would be cool just a suggestions..nice add-on!

Thanks,

Not one single person can answer this dumb question??????????

I suggest a change of attitude.

Also, you seem to have forgotten something else ......

Also, when I look at who's online, I can see googlebot and inktomisearch and aol. Is there some place that I can edit the bots?

Thanks

Are you using an alternative datastore to the normal mysql ?

Also, in your Who's Online Options, do you have Enable Spider Display set to yes.

No, using the normal MySQL.

My enable spider display in who's online options was turned off. I just turned it on.

Hope this does it... thanks Paul!

That did it... thank you Paul.... works great now!!

After 1 minute:

Total guests that have visited the forum in the last 24 hours: 1,854

Visitors (1849), Google Spiders (1), Yahoo! Slurp Spiders (3), AskJeeves Spiders (1)


:)

If that option is turned off then vbulletin does not build the array of spiders that this relies on for spider detection. I will add a note to the main post about this.

Wow, sorry if this is offtopic, but anyone else seeing Yahoo Slurp spiders crawl their site so much?

Total guests that have visited the forum in the last 24 hours: 1,867

Visitors (1715), Yahoo! Slurp Spiders (150), Google Spiders (1), AskJeeves Spiders (1)

Yes, these are from one site I run this on.

I get similar results on other sites.

How can I get mine to say the most guests in one day?

Awesome!!

Total guests that have visited the forum in the last 24 hours: 1,946

The most guests in one day was 1946, Today.
Visitors (1433), Yahoo! Slurp Spiders (509), Google Spiders (1), MSNBot Spiders (1), AskJeeves Spiders (1), Google AdSense Spiders (1)

ok, i clicked install sorry i didn't know how it worked anyway wsince the 2 can'ìt be combined is there a way to make the txt in the guest window a bit more nice to look at?

Regards

"a bit more nice to look at" ? What do you mean ?

The text (and whole layout actually) are phrase and template driven, you can customise them as you want.

i mean to make it fit in more maybe by making the inside txt bold and colored so that the different bots look different from each other :)

Regards

Great hack Paul. Added it in less than a minute and it works perfectly. Thankyou.

Thankyou.

JFYI - v1.07 uploaded - this is a simple change in the datastore call (to get the spiders data). The change will make no difference to a working installation so upgrading is entirely optional.

/me updates thanx

Great Hack.
Works very Nicely.

The latest version is breaking few settings. All group templates (specially all other hacks templates) is not staying in a group. Also few admincp additional stats mods not showing on admincp index.

But when i disable this hack. those settings working fine. bellow is the attachment, if you want to see..

Wish i found this last month. this is awesome and should be standard. great work.

Thanks.

Question, if I log in as a guest, that will add one guest to the total, however if I then log in, will that take me off from the total from the guest total?

Because I think it should so it shows people who are guests and not members in that day.

also instead of just

Total guests that have visited the forum in the last 24 hours: 17

could you change it so it is

Total guests that have visited the forum in the last 24 hours: (15 visitors and 2 search engine spiders)

The difference between 1.07 & 1.06 is precisely 1 line, I don't see how it could possibly have any effect like that. Maybe your upload got corrupted, try importing it again.

No, as far a vbulletin is concerned you visited as a guest, so you will be counted.
