invisible for real

let's say I have set myself to be invisible, no one in the forum can see me online, however, when the users look at:

Code:

Currently Active Users: 16 (13 members, 3 guests and 0 spiders)

they can see 15 members visible, but yet it's saying 16, they will know that there is a user setting himself to be invisible.

is there a way not to count the invisible users within the online users count?

This is the reply I got at vb.com :)

You would also need to do it for the Who's Online, too, I think. ;)

This will hide the number of invisible users to those who can't see invisible users... :)

What about for the Who's online, too? ;)

EDIT: NM, I just looked at the plug-in. ;)

I tested it on my forum and it appeared to work as long as you can't see invisible users - It makes sense that you can't lie about the number of invisible users if you can see them :p

Chris, how could I do the same thing for certain member IDs (like mine) from everyone, whether they can see invisible users or not?

You would have to (most likely) alter functions_online.php to remove referencing to the usergroup permissions when your userid is online :)

Upon investigation I have narrowed it to:

PHP Code:


		
			
// ###################### Start userlocation #######################

function fetch_user_location_array($userinfo)

{

This function - There are no hooks inside the function so a file-edit is probable if not manditory :)

Did it work for you with vb 3.6? It doesn't work for me either in FroumHome or Who's Online. Can anyone help?

Thanks!
