vB3 Last activity in memberlist
Version 1.0
(By Boofo)

What does this hack do?
This hack will replace the Last Visit column in the memberlist with the Last Activity. Last Visit has always been confusing to me because it is really the time BEFORE the member's actual last visit. Last activity is the same thing the profile uses so, to me, it seems more accurate. You will still be able to turn this on/off via "User Listing & Profile Viewing > Member List Field Options > Last Online" in the vBulletin Settings in the Admin CP.

AFAIK Last Visit is (whatever is newer)
- The last time a session for this user was created
OR
- The last time the user clicked "Mark forums read"
OR
- The last time the user logged out

That's what I used to think. But I have a member that had been on 2 days earlier (in the profile it showed that for last activity) but his last visit said 4 days ago (last visit in the original memberlist). There has been kind of a debate on vb.com about this for a while. I'm not the only one who is confused about this, it seems. What it ends up turning out to be is the last time before the last activity. Last activity seems a lot more accurate to me. Thus, this hack. ;)

That could be right, if he's connected 24/7 and accesses the forum more often then every 15 minutes (default cookie timeout). Then the last visit can stay at it's value (set when the session was created) for ages ...

But that's OT anyway ;)
