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).

If I install this module, can I just import it with overwrite option? Or do I have to delete the old installation? If so, how to delete the old version? Also, how to check the version of this mod?

Thank you in advance.

OK. I figured it out now. I looked thru the previous version mod and remove the line in FORUMHOME template.. then installed this mod.

The upgrade instructions are in the first post, now you can click install ......

OK, I know I'm stupid. You need to uncomment something to switch the hack to 24 hours. What do I uncomment and where do I find this code to uncomment?

I wish the text file that was included with the download had some instructions. I've spent 20 mins looking through these 44 pages of content and still can't find the answer.

[Paul M]

You don't uncomment anything anymore - as per the first post ;

10. The switch between Visited Today and Rolling 24 Hours is an ACP option .

I installed it and it works fine. Thanx for it man!

I put this on my site, love it, and clicked installed. Thanks!

I've fixed a bug in the new install code so that it actually creates the index. If you have installed this for the first time in the last couple of days (i.e. v4.15) then I suggest you upgrade to v4.17 to create the index (note, while not strictly necessary, the index will improve performance of this on larger forums).

[Luggruff]

is there something I can add so that after "members who has visited the forum today: #" it will show how many guests that have visited? and a total of members and guests?

[Paul M]

Nope, there is no facility to include guests.

Hi Paul, I'm running 3.5.3 and your hack v4.11

Found out that my custom usergroups are unable to see the box (only default usergroups can see). Anyway I can fix this? will v4.17 fix this? please advise. Thanks.
