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.

We have a server just for SQL. Do you mean a secondary 'slave' server to that? I don't know how that works. Or how MySQL would use it.
Wouldn't doing a SELECT COUNT() be quicker than a SELECT USER. And ordering it by the user name would definitely put extra load on the SQL server since it would have to create a temporary table, wouldn't it?

Ok, it's now 5pm and we have nearly 7,000 members having visted today. It's too many to put on the home page.
A separate page would be very useful, though.

I need to add a legend to the beginning of the list of usernames.
Supporter • Member • New Member • Unconfirmed • Banned

The places I used put it in the wrong place.
Were would I add this?

PS. Supporter is supposed to be red, member blue. But vB is showing them as Green???

It was either this hack or the guests one on the update.
It took off the errors when the page was finished loading
Now the page runs smooth

I am unable to get the display to load collapsed or even be toggleable after updating.

[Paul M]

Have you customised the template, you will need to revert it if you have.
