Could you restate that?

I think you were trying to ask if the "Cumulative User Time Online" was the total of all user online times, which is yes.

To be completely honest, I'm not sure from that picture exactly what I'm looking at... I only know English and a little Spanish, so that doesn't help me a lot... However if you had a url I could go check out, I may be able to help you out a bit more.

This is great mod however I have one small request. Because it will not fit in one line when using postbit, would it be possible to change the format of the time display do something like: "33,8h"

Right now, we had no plans of releasing a new version just for that; however, you can change the phrases to make "hours" to "h" and so on. Sorry it took a while for us to respond, we don't check these forums very often... If in the future you need any more help, you can always stop by our website and ask, we check it quite often throughout the day.
