Forum Home Enhancements - Members who have visited Today (or in the last 24 hours).

This modification is no longer available or supported.

This adds a simple display of all members who have visited the forum - either today (i.e. since the users midnight) or in the last 24 hours.

Note: it is not possible for this hack to count guests - however, see this thread to track guests.

The main features of the 3.6 version are basically the same as previous versions ;

1. It displays the list on the Forum Home.
2. The list view is collapsable, so you just see the number.
3. Invisible users are only displayed to those allowed to see them (with a "*")
4. Users who should display as coloured or bold etc will be displayed correctly (based on the display usergroup).
5. If you 'hover' over a username it will show the time they were last active.
6. The list is in member name order.
7. The mod is phrased.
8. The ability to turn it on/off is in the ACP Options.
9. The ability to allow only certain usergroups to view the list is an ACP option (include or exclude groups).
10. The switch between Visited Today and Rolling 24 Hours is an ACP option.
11. The listing of members can now be suppressed (a simple message is displayed instead).
12. The list of names can be set to be always collapsed on initial view.
13. The option to record and display the Most Ever visitors has been added (v4.43+).

(Options are in vBulletin Options > Who has visited today)

Unzip the XML and import into vB using the ACP Product Manager.

To upgrade from the 3.5 version just re-import the product with the overwrite option set to yes.


EvilHawk has also updated his WVT on a seperate page, see this post.

[SCuN]

There is the possibility of making to put the validity of groups on the example and they were they displayed on the beginning ??
administrators, super moderators, moderators, all users

[Paul M]

Nope. There is another mod that does that.

I installed with no problems...ran perfectly for three days and today the site crashed with a database error. Have you had any other such issues?

[Paul M]

This only reads data, it cannot crash anything.

Hi Paul....

Just noticed something strange....

I've been running v4.43 under v3.67pl1 for a long time without any problems. I just noticed today that if I hover over a name, it no longer shows the time last on.

I'm SURE that as late as this past weekend it was working fine, but now doesn't seem to want to display that pop-up. Everything else about the mod seems to continue to work fine. I have not installed or changed any other mods in some time.

Any ideas? Should I perhaps re-install the XML file, or something like that?

Thanks ...

Regards,
Badger

Edit: I just noticed that your other mods "Members who have posted Today (or in the last 24 hours)" and "Who has read a Thread" have also ceased giving me the pop-up times? Must be something common to all of them that's changed?

What if I wanted to put this somewhere else besides the What's Going On box - let's say inaa left side column on my board. How would I do that?

Must be your browser. Nothing has changed and it works fine for me on your site (milsurps).

Ok, found the pattern ...

For whatever reason, if I'm doing a lot of file transfers (uploads and downloads), while concurrently browsing thr web site, the hover function in these mods stops functioning. At first, I thought it was just that I wasn't waiting long enough for the fetch due to the increased net traffic, but even if I sat for several minutes "hovered", nothing would happen.

As soon as the downloading or uploading in the background ceased and I had more bandwidth on my cable connection, the hover functions started working again.

In any event, I think that isolates it and obviously it's not a big deal....

Thank you for your great mods and excellent support.

Badger
