Hi WATRD,

I've not officially updated this hack because I've not had any time to mess with it or even learn the vB hooks system. However I did quickly get it working with vB 3.6x with few modifications.

One caveat: The place where this is hack is inserted into the vB code will email you each time the user does something on your forum. That's annoying. There is certainly a much better place to insert the code so that it will only email once per user session, which is how my original hack worked. I have not had time to locate the ideal location, so if anyone reading this wants to chime in, I'm all ears.

-------------

This will work with vB 3.6x, keeping the above caveat in mind:

On the line userinfo['usergroupid']==X, "X" should be replaced with the user group ID you want flagged.
On the line $emailaddr = "REPLACE WITH YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS"; add your email address where indicated.


In "includes/functions.php", look for:

$vbulletin->session->save();
... and insert this immediately after:

// ### EMAIL ADMIN IF FLAGGED USER COMES ONLINE - JOHN STONE HACK #################################################
$emailaddr = "REPLACE WITH YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS";
$ip = getenv("REMOTE_ADDR");
$user = ($vbulletin->userinfo['username']);
$subject = "Flagged user online!";
$message = "User: $user \nIP address: $ip";
if ($vbulletin->userinfo['usergroupid']==X)
{ // Flagged user
vbmail ($emailaddr, $subject, $message);
vbmail_end();
}
// ### EMAIL ADMIN IF FLAGGED USER COMES ONLINE - JOHN STONE HACK #################################################

I hope this helps. I'll post an official hack if I have time to make it work as intended with vB 3.6x, or if someone provides a better place to insert the code.
