Most users ever online
 

Recently I've been hit by many ddos attacks something like 6000 guests online every time. Anyways the provider is sorting that my problem now is most users online can I change it so it doesn't count guests or can I reset it?

I believe the only way to do it would be to change the database (or to write some php, but the database way is probably easier if you're not a programmer). The value is stored in the 'datastore' table in the row where title = 'maxloggedin'. You could delete that row and it would get reset to 0, or you could use phpMyAdmin to edit that field. The value is stored as a serialized array so you have to be a little careful. On my test forum it looks like this:


so you could change the 2 in 'i:2' to whatever value you wanted. You could also edit the date if you really wanted to, but you'd need the unix timestamp of the date you wanted to put in there.
