vBulletin CMS Widgets - Widget - Users Online

This is a widget for your CMS pages to show the Current Users Online.



You will need to Create a new Template (vbcms_widget_execphp_activeusers), Cache the template, Create a new Widget (Users Online), Configure the Widget, and then finally add the Widget to your Layout (I am not including instructions for that, you should know how to add Widgets to Layouts).

1.0 2009-12-17: initial release by Lynne at vbulletin.org (pre 4.0)

Does this widget not work with version 4.06? I have also redirected my vbCMS to be my home page and now it only seems to pop up when it wants to. So I decided to redo the whole thing and now it is not working at all. I also have multiple styles. Thank you for any assistance

Thanks this worked on 4.1.1

Just remove the condition and see if that fixes the issue. Otherwise, I don't know what to tell you because I have never been able to replicate this issue on any of my default vbulletin boards so there isn't anything I can do if I can't replicate it.

This plugin seems to be working fine for logged in users, but will disappear for guests once they refresh the page on 4.1.1.

Edit: Nevermind it disappears for logged in users as well. Clearing the cms cache seems to fix it for a few minutes, and then it disappears again.

Edit to add: I lowered the widget cache setting to 0, seems to have fixed it at least for the time being.

Yes my issue may have to do with my home page (CMS) set up via vbSEO? The forum block one works great, this one just shows up when it wants to.

I don't have vbseo, so I really can't comment on how vbseo would affect this widget.

VBSEO will not affect this, I have it installed and its running fine with SEO

Forgive me if this has been asked before, I tried a search. Is there a way to color code the names by usergroup?

That is a default vbulletin function under usergroup manager > html markup (something like that). It has nothing to do with this modification.

I tried adding this, but it maybe conflicting with something. I ended up with a full white page with only the following...

Fatal error: Call to a member function query_read_slave() on a non-object in /home/socially/public_html/forums/vboptimise/cachers/cacher_forumhomewol.php on line 35

I would suspect from the above, it is my vbOptimise plug-in.

Not any fault to your modification though.

Just quickly disable the other mod and see. If I recall, you need to sometimes rebuild something in that mod if you make changes.
