use erwin's hack https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...threadid=59722

but change the conditonal to this

PHP Code:


		
			
// people online on every page.

if (!$forumhome)

{ 

    $datecut = TIMENOW - $vboptions['cookietimeout']; 

    $headerguests = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT COUNT(*) AS count FROM session WHERE userid= 0 AND lastactivity > $datecut"); 

    $headerusers = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT(userid)) AS count FROM session WHERE session.userid > 0 AND session.lastactivity > $datecut"); 

    $headerguests = $headerguests[count]; 

    $headerusers = $headerusers[count]; 

    $totalonline = $headerguests + $headerusers; 

} 

// people online on every page

and add at the top of your forums/index.php

PHP Code:


		
			
$forumhome = TRUE;

no...

what i wanted to do was feed the online users number to a script that has nothing to do with vbulletin.

i have a php webpage that is completely separate from vbulletin, but i want it to show number of users online (users online in vbulletin that is)

that's fine, the above information and the said hack still contain the queries required to gather the information.
