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.

I have reverted all my forums I have uploaded the hack & it will not dispay anything.

Any help on this I did not see any template changes for this hack in the zip am I missing something?

Thanks in advance

There are no template edits in this, it searches for a standard comment in the existing template and inserts the display after it.

There is no option to do that, you would have to edit the SQL in the plugin.

OK Paul I have checked everything It is installed I can see it all in admin options.

But why can't I see it on the forum?

[Paul M]

Without access to your site I have no idea.

update datastore set unserialize = 1,data = ' ' where title = 'maxloggedin'

How do I run a query? I did one the other day by tacking it into the address bar, but I also see a place to run queries in the admin panel. It tells me I don't have permission to do that tho. I can fix that part I think, but I just want to be sure I'm doing it in the right place. Thanks in advance for your help.

[Paul M]

That is the correct place (after you update your config.php to allow you to run queries).

[putergirl]

well, I had to use the second one too, and it wiped everything clean, which is kind of a bummer, but at least it is responding now. Thank you
