This hack was requested on vBulletin.com.

It lets you add possible locations to Who's Online, directly from the Admin CP.
This is good if you are using external hacks, that use vBulletin's system. You probably know that users browsing these external files have Unknown Location (or Main Index for non-admin viewers) next to them.

With this hack, you can easily add a new custom location with ease!
It's also designed in a way that won't let you overwrite existing locations. ('dummy protection' as I like to call it

)

The locations you add are not stored in their own table, because I really felt that would be waste of space and resource.
Instead, I store the locations in the template table, in one special template dedicated to this data.
It was a lot harder to do it this way, btw.

Please let me know if you find any bugs, or if this script doesn't work with files in child folders (this is my main concern).
This can be easily remove (just undo changes to online.php), so please don't fear to try it out!

A nice screen shot is in my next post.

Wondering if it's okay to bump something a week old?

Thanks in advance to anyone who takes a look at this.

I have a Problem with the Hack!

When I activate Email (in Admin CP under User....) the tables are make problem!

See the picture!

I have vbportal also installed! There is a site called modules.php before I update vbulletin and vbportal I have this take: <a href="$userinfo[location]">Module</a>

But the field is empty now?

Is it possable to get this to work with Logician's [WEBTEMPLATES HACK:]Share your WebTemplates or WebQueries!

Thanks! :nervous:

I know you hera this a lot but you can never hear it enough im sure but GREAT Hack. now I am having troubles at the moment tho.

I am running 2.3.0 I installed like you correctly I even went over it 3 times to make sure now the problem I am having is me being the admin of the forums I have the ability to see IP address. The thing is they are showing in the EMAIL slot of the Whos online page.

Everything else worked correctly I made the proper link to the UNKNOWN page i was having. But now Like i said I get the IP #'s in the email Table column, is anyone else havin this trouble? I have added a picture of the screen (i have removed the #'s of course) but you can see where they was.

Thank you for your time

I just installed this hack on VB 2.3.0 and it is working flawlessly.

GZ_Tanis, do you have a hack that shows you the email address in the Who's Online page? That may be what is messing you up. Correct me if I am wrong, but I do not believe that the users email is originally supposed to be there.

Where do you enable the email to be shown like that? I was not saying you were wrong, I would just like to recreate it.

***Update...

Nevermind, I found it. I have never enabled that email function before. But now that I did, it is still working perfectly. I will look into it some more and see why it may be doing what it is doing to you.
