This is, unfortunately, still a code mod. The code to find is different in 3.6 and I have updated accordingly.

I have not included directions to use this with any portals.

Thanks amykhar............i love this mod.

Glad you like it :)

Amy

very nice

think you

The Free Bird

thanks

Cheers. :)

thx for making this compatible with the new vb

cheers :)

Installing this for the Coast community - I like to see how many or each bot are on at any given time.

thanks nice

Thanks for the 3.6 version of this hack! :)

Isn't this part of 3.6.x?

That's on the who's online page Bubble.

OK thank you for the clearification.

Installed, now lets see if it works. Just waiting for spiders...

Too bad it is not a plugin (product). Hate to do code changes on 3.6

Actually it's not that bad, but you might want to wait until 3.6 goes gold because otherwise all your edits will get overwritten. I agree a plugin is always best, especially when switching from one version to another. Maybe one day someone will make a hack that remembers all your plugins and allows you to click one place to reimport them all at the same time ;)

At some point, I'll study how to use the plugins to dynamically write to templates. Then, I can turn this into a product that will add one extra query whenever your forumhome loads. This version is optimized and doesn't add any queries.

thanks great hack.

it's a damn shame this isnt a product as I would clicked install right away.

... now that is a good idea!

Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_DEC, expecting T_VARIABLE or '$' in xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx\forum\httpdocs\index.php on line 381

Amy... I'm almost certain this is possible without code mods.... and I know also that if you cant do it, then very few can....

Whats going on? why the *lazy* code? (no offence.... just trying to kick yer butt coz I want this!!)

Me 2, I've installed this hack before but I can't do the files edits anymore... lol:)

Installed with some minor template modifcations to give partial functionality/compatibility to vBadvanced.

Hi ...

But Thise Hacks Make The Forum Very slow

thank you ..

Best Regarde ..

It's never affected the speed of my board and I've used some variation of it for several versions of vbulletin.

Workin fine on RC3.. Thnx amykhar :)..

Thanks amy, installed. The only mod i've installed that makes code edits (I usually stay away from those..) ;)

@rob30UK - I've taken a look at the code myself, and honestly - I see no way to do it.

But if anyone can do it, feel free to prove me wrong :D

-waiting for the plugin version

1 thing for 3.6 gold instead of doing: you should do

The difference is you need to add ", infractiongroupid" to the end of the select.

when all of you say whats with the lazy code it's actually you being lazy because you can't be bothered to do something manually for once.

How do I edit the phrase, vbulletin does not let u do in the control panel.

~Edit, went in and manually chaged the MySQL statement

Exactly right..I have always liked the code edits:cool:

Keep up the great work amykhar

Does this show the bots to the users too?

Yes, it does.

Mine is counting all wrong on the front page... It shows 1 Member too many Guests and no spiders when there is actually a totally different number when you look in Who's Online... Only the Who's online is accurate.

Somehow I overwrote something wrong in the index.php. I have uploaded the original version, and uninstalled the rest of the Mod until I have more time.

Now I can click Install... Working great. I even caught one spider... :)

I just caught a fly.... (cause waiting for the plugin version) :D

PS I don't mind to edit templates, but refuse to edit files, because it makes upgrades painful.

Igor, you could wait forever. Just sayin. I don't personally need a plugin version and I work two jobs. I generally code only what I personally need and use.
