Forum Home Enhancements - Member Visit Tracking

As of 23 Nov 2017 this modification has been withdrawn.

This tracks the number of members that have visited the forum each day, and displays a list in the same manner as the Members Who Have Visited Today display. However, this also tracks a lot more data, such as the script (and request variables) run on their last visit, and all threads and forums visited.

Options / Features

* The script that the member is running is logged (e.g. showthread, usercp etc).
* The request variables in use are logged (e.g. threadid, userid etc).
* The member visits table can be cleaned of old records to help control it's size.
* Member Views data collection - tracking each members viewing of the forum index page, forums and threads.
* Member Views data collection can be separately disabled.
* Multiple member visits to the same page are logged separately.
* Clicking on the main display icon will list the recent visits by all members (if allowed).
* Clicking on a member in the main display will show that members viewing data (if enabled, and you have permission).
* Clicking on the "Total members that have visited" line will list all members who have visited and their last action.
* Usergroup permissions are done with the standard vbulleten usergroup permissions system.

Four new usergroup permissions are provided in the usergroup manager.

* Can View the Members Visited Display - Members can view the members visited display on Forumhome.
* Can View Member IP Addresses - Members can see the ip addresses of visiting members.
* Can View Member Visits List - Members can view the list of member visits page.
* Can View Member Tracking Data - Members can view the individual member visit tracking page.

* All (non usergroup) modification settings are in vBulletin Options > Member Tracking.


To install;

• Unzip the XML files.
• Upload the bitfields file to your ../includes/xml folder.
• Import the product into vBulletin using the ACP Product Manager.
• Set your required permissions in the usergroup manager.

Note that by default no permissions are given, you must set them.

Note: You must enable the [core] Visiting Members display, this mod hooks into that display, it does not duplicate the display for itself.

Hello, PaulM!

Thank you again for your great mods

I need your help if you can guide me to change a setting of your TRACKING mods (Member & visitors)!

As I have installed a transparent template in my forum the tracking mods have a little bug with this template as the backround is white and the link colours are yellow and the contrast is very low.

I attach a photo to see what I mean.



I would like to ask you if possible to guide me to make an alteration in the mods to make the backround of the mods also transparent or change it to any color i like.

Regards,
''Mikevet1984''

Great mod (as always from Paul M)!

But, can you please make it so that Registered Users can see the Admins in the "members who visited today" list? I don't want to hide from them

Thanks in advance!

[Paul M]

This follows the standard vb settings, no one is hidden unless they have chosen to be in their settings.

Well, i only asked because before i used "Members Who Have Visited Today" mod (thanks for it, btw) and Registered Usergroup could see the Administrators Usergroup. With Member Visit Tracking, they don't (but they can see Moderators Usergroup). Is there something i can set for this mod so they can also see Administrators?

[Paul M]

No, as I hoped I'd made clear, there are no settings that restrict which usergroups are shown in the list.

I cann't find anything to access the track members! vb4.1.4

[Gecuba]

Very useful mod - thanks a lot!

we only use the forums, not social groups, or visitor messages, or blogs, or CMS (in fact, we dont use vb4). So there is not much call for me to spend my limited time on such things.

May be some time you'll install vb4... Will be waiting for blogs and articles extention...

Updated: This is now available for the 4.1.x series of vBulletin only.
