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.

Would it be possible to update this hack so that you can fake an amount of users to look like they're online?

[Paul M]

No, that will never be a feature.

[deezelpope]

Installed and loving it! Thanks much!

Thanks for your reply..

I meant that: is there any way to check that the this product is installed properly?

I found this code in the index.php:
</tbody>
<!-- end logged-in users -->
</if>
<tbody>

Will the product work? how can I check? specially that it does not work...

Can I add the required code by opening the index.php and paste it some where?

thanks again

[Paul M]

If you can see it listed in your plugin and product managers then I would say it's installed properly.

That code you posted is not in index.php, it's in the forumhome template.

If you have not touched the options then it should be visible to anyone. If it isn't then most likely you have a faulty mod installed that is breaking your hook system - turn off all your other products/plugins and see if it works.

[Faten_west]

thanks a lot

Done!!

I have this on our forum and it works correctly, but the number of active users don't show up. Any idea why??

You have customised the phrase at some point - revert it back to the default.
