Hidden Locations in Whos Online
 

Hello,

I would like to be able to hide my staff members from displaying their locations in the "whos online". I thought there was a method for this, but I could not find it. (I DO run searches long before I post.)

I know how to add custom pages to the WOL, but I want to hide users or usergroups.

This would be a great plugin if it is possible to hide usergroups / or members specifically.

Have them select "Use Invisible Mode" in "Edit Options".

Hello,

I don't want the staff hidden ON the FORUMS. I want them hidden ONLY on the WOL. When members view the WOL, they can see "where" other users are. I want to be able to display a fixed location for my staff so users don't know where they are or what they are doing.

Invisible mode doesn't solve my problem. (I have been using vb for several years now. What I need is an actual modification and can't be done using the standard tools.)

I haven't seen a modification like the one you're wanting. If I come across something I'll post a link in this thread.

that would be why its a request :)

it would be somtinglike this

hook (member_complete)
*= dont know correct variable ( i suck at php)


i dont know what the variable for the user you are viewing is though.

You would save yourself a lot of trouble if you just disabled viewing detailed locations for normal members.

Hello,

I understand that Marco, but I actually have a use for them viewing locations. I want them to see when users are using the "perks" that come with subscriptions, or when users are donating. It may (has!) drive other users to do something similar or become a subscribed member as well.

What I don't want is for them to see what my staff are doing. I was guessing that there would be a variable call for for usergroups that I could use. I could set something like "Monitoring the Site" as their location when members view the WOL.

I know I could hardcode it into the .php file like I did with 3.0.X but I am pretty certain this could be accomplished via the plugins and hooks system which I haven't learned enough about to do myself just yet.

Blaine0002 is right up the alley I am looking to take. :D

Hello,

Is this possible? I thought this would be fairly simple.

Template edits will accomplish a lot of small things like that. Templates are your friend. ;)
