Description:
This Hack adds something like the "Currently Active Users:"-Feature of vBulletin.
The difference is, instead of showing the users, who are currently online, it shows
all Users, who were online on a day and it also displays "Most users ever online on a day".

Summary of the Features:

• Shows "Number of Active Users Today"
• Shows "Most users ever online on a day"
• Shows last online time for each User while pointing the Mouse Cursor on it's name (=mouseover) in the list

Important: The Hack only works 100% correct, when each member is in the same time zone as the Server!

Files to edit: index.php
Templates to edit: forumhome
New Templates: forumhome_todayloggedinusers, forumhome_todayloggedinuser

I have attached the Install Instructions in a Text File.
The Instruction is in English and in German.

I will attach a Screenshot in a Reply to this Thread!

Post any Questions into this Thread!

Updates in 1.0.1: Inserted the two new templates into the template precaching (first step)

Updates in 1.0.2: Fixed a little Bug with the "Most users ever online on a day"-Count
(Replace '$maxusers[2] = $todayonline;' with '$maxusers[2] = $numbertodayonline;' in index.php)

Info: You can find an other version of this Hack here. In this other version the usernames of the members, who were already online today, are not shown on the Forum-Mainpage; the names are shown in an extra File (like online.php), onlinetoday.php (Screenshot).

So, depending on which version of the Hack you prefer, you have to download this:
Version with usernames on the main Site of the Forum

or this:
Version with usernames on extra site (onlinetoday.php)

Is there any way this hack could be modified so that the number of users "yesterday" can be displayed. It'd be good to see how many people logged on the previous day - unless I'm around at 23:59 I never know!

Skyrender,
I'm all mixed up. Which of the attached here files I should download if I have 2.2.8?

Installed. Nice hack.

I'm seeing the same. It's shows 0 users depending on what time of the day I visit my forums. I have my forum time offset from that of my server. From reading previous posts here, I take it that's what is causing it?

[mikeB]

My problem is this: When a user is logged in, they see a large amount more members that were logged in than someone who is ungegistered or logged out. I DISABLED invisible users yesterday and set every previously invisible user to visible, but the number of users that visited today doesn't match

any idea why?

the forum is http://www.highradiation.com/learn

right now if you're logged in Number of Active Users Today: 162
right now if you're loggged out/unreg: Number of Active Users Today: 102

thanks>!
