All I want [ ] is to display who's online - the names as links - so the last one on this mod's list of options.
But I want to put it in a side column box on vb itself.
I have Ultimate Side Columns installed, and its stuff is at the end of the navbar template. I then have a nice little interface in VB adminCP Options to edit the side menu boxes.

I put

<?php
chdir('./XXX');
require_once('./vBExternal.php');
?>

into headinclude - wiith XXX as my vb dir

and put

<tr><td>
<?php
output_UsersOnline();
?>
</td></tr>

in my side column in its own row

My html all shows saying WHO'S ONLINE
but nothing shows under it where the code is

tried using gloabal start hook

Plugin Manager -> Add Plugin -> global_start
then put this code in the text:

require_once('./vBExternal.php');

anyone know how to make this work on all vb pages?
or is there another mod?
