Members who have visited the forum (Today or 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 midnight) or in the last 24 hours. Please note that it is not possible for this hack to count guests.

The main features of Version 4.xx 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 should 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 hack is now phrased.
8. The ability to turn it on/off is in the ACP Forum Home Options.
9. The ability to allow only certain usergroups to view the list is an ACP option (vBulletin Options > Who has visited today).
10. The switch between Visited Today and Rolling 24 Hours is an ACP option (many seem to miss this actually exists).
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.

Unzip the XML and import into vB using the ACP Product Manager.

To upgrade from version 4.10 onwards, you need to re-import the product with the overwrite option set to yes. To upgrade from version 4.01/4.02 to version 4.10 onwards, you need to uninstall the product and remove the template code in FORUMHOME - then upload the new product. To upgrade from version 3.xx to version 4.xx you need to delete the existing plugin and remove the template code in FORUMHOME - then upload the new product.

* Add-ons etc *

* An add-on to display a 'Most ever posters' count is available here.

* If you want the WVT display on a seperate page - see this post by EvilHawk - now updated to version 4.21.

* There is also a CMPS module that makes use of this plugin (by tgmorris).

you are great... keep to date

I know that someone else did this, but this hack needs an option to show the list on another page. I've just installed it and now have a HUGE box at the bottom of the page showing 585 users online! Not to mention the bloat in the HTML.

Nice mod though.

[MGSteve]

btw, if people want to show the list of users online on another page (there's a link to such a mod in the hack overview above) and want to get it to work in the current version, this is what you need to do.

Download the mod by EvilHawk (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost.php?p=794815)

Make the changes as described, but omit step 1.

Then edit the plugin for 'Members who have visited (2)' in forumhome_start & replace this bit of code

while ($today = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($todaysusers))
	{
		$totaltoday += 1;
		$today['opentag'] = $today['opentaga'] ;
		$today['closetag'] = $today['closetaga'] ;
		if ($today['displaygroupid']) 
		{
			$today['opentag'] = $today['opentagb'] ;
			$today['closetag'] = $today['closetagb'] ;
		}
		$today[visible] = 1 ;
		if ($today['options'] & $vbulletin->bf_misc_useroptions['invisible']) 
		{
			$today['visible'] = 0 ;
			if (($vbulletin->userinfo['permissions']['genericpermissions'] 
			& $vbulletin->bf_ugp_genericpermissions['canseehidden']) 
			OR $today['userid'] == $vbulletin->userinfo['userid'])
			{
				$today['visible'] = 2 ;
			}
		}
		if ($today['visible']) 
		{
			$wrdate = vbdate($vbulletin->options['timeformat'], $today['lastactivity']);
			$whotoday .= "<a href='member.php?u=$today[userid]' title='$wrdate' >";
			if ($today['visible'] == 2) 
			{
				$whotoday .= $today['opentag'].$today['username'].$today['closetag']."</a>*, ";
			}
			else 
			{
				$whotoday .= $today['opentag'].$today['username'].$today['closetag']."</a>, ";
			}
		}
	}
	if ($whotoday)
	{
		$whotoday = substr($whotoday, 0, strlen($whotoday)-2);
	}
	else
	{
		$whotoday = $vbphrase['no_visitors'];
	}

with this

while ($today = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($todaysusers))
	{
   	 $totaltoday += 1;
	}
	if ($totaltoday != 0)
	{
		$whotoday = "<br/><div><strong><a href='online_today.php?$session[sessionurl]'>Click here for the full list</a></strong></div>";
	}
	else
	{
		$whotoday = $vbphrase['no_visitors'];
	}

And Jobs a good-un. This was for version 4.12 btw.

Our list is 600+ most days, not really a great problem, but thanks for updating the alternative.

[steven s]

It's getting to be a bit too much on my site. But that's a good thing.
Can this be changed to display those who have visited in the last 12 hours?

[Eagle Creek]

THANKYOU!

Btw; will this hack work at 3.5.2?

[Snake]

Yes it will. I have it installed on my forums as it's running on v3.5.2.
