Forum Home Enhancements - Members who have visited today.

As of 24 Nov 2017 this modification has been withdrawn.

This adds a simple display of all members who have visited the forum - either today (i.e. since the users midnight) or in the last 24 hours.

Note: it is not possible for this hack to count guests.

The main features of the 3.8 version are as follows ;

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 will 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 ability to turn it on/off is in the ACP Options.
8. The ability to allow only certain usergroups to view the list is an ACP option (include or exclude groups).
9. An option to record and display the Most Ever Members can be enabled.
10. The switch between Visited Today and Rolling 24 Hours is an ACP option.
11. The listing of members can be suppressed (a simple message is displayed instead).
12. The list of names can be set to be always collapsed on initial view.

(Options are in vBulletin Options > Who has visited today)

To install just unzip the XML and import into vB using the ACP Product Manager.

I think I get it. It has to do with the setting in the User Control Panel?

When I transferred the users in, it set everybody to GMT. I saw in the code for the mod that it reads their last action.

That makes perfect sense. Being a Central Texas Forum, I have a few from outside the area, but not many.

Thanks!

Hi,

one of my favorite plugins. Simple but helpful.
Maybe someone can help me out.
I searching for the place in the code, where the links to the User profiles are generated.

I'm close but didn't get it.
In the template "display_visitors" there is a variable $whotoday where the links are built.
But I couldn't find the place, where it comes from....

Help you how ? I cannot edit your template for you.

I'm having a bit of a problem installing this. When I import the product it only seems to get so far in the install process before stopping. The last message I get on screen is "( Replacing : Version 3.8.002 ; Revision 1.6 )."

I'm really not sure if it's something I'm doing wrong or if it's something to do with old code/databases etc.

For some reason, I have seen the odd server trip up on the sleep command - try editing the xml file and remove/comment out the sleep commands, then try again.

That did the trick, thanks very much :up:
