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).

Ok i added the widget to my site and it came up with no style and just a date inside, ive removed it all and tried it again yet still get the same thing.
Please tell me what i am doing wrong or is there something wrong with the coding?
If you can't save anything in your widgets configuration, then you should post for help over on vbulletin.com. First try a search over there and see if the issue has come up before.

Thanks for suggesstion, I did exactly that and have received no help.
To be quite honest, I saw you were the pro from dover on widgets and was hoping you would be able to identify this issue in Gold 4.0... Notice I am not the only one with this challenge.
Thanks much anyway... Any suggestions would be appreciated.

im using vb 4.0 'gold'
Did you click on the Configure link next to the widget and then add the code in there? Oh, and did you change the name of the template in the Configure panel? My widget won't output a date because it doesn't use $output for the output like a normal widget template does.

The only time something like this happened to me, I had not uploaded all the files correctly. Once I reuploaded all the files, it worked fine. So, try that. Or, you may want to put in a Support Ticket cuz I really don't know what else to suggest. Also, as I mentioned above, did you change the name of the template in the Configure panel? My widget won't output a date because it doesn't use $output for the output like a normal widget template does.
Lynne, the block displays empty when the user does not have access to the content. Can you make it so the block will not display if the user is not allowed to see the content?
