This one is a pretty easy hack to install. It shows any spiders that are indexing your site in the what's going on box on the forum home page. Please note. It will only show spiders as spiders and not as guests if it also shows them as spiders and not as guests on online.php.
This hack has been tested on 3.0.6 and 3.0.7.
It's not hard to install, but it does have one drawback. If you have a portal page that shows online users, you will have to edit it yourself to incorporate the changes. Consider yourself warned.
At this point, any problems reported are installation errors. If things don't work for you, make sure you have completed all the steps as written.
As I have upgraded to 3.5, I am withdrawing support for this older version. All the bugs are gone and any issues are now installation errors.
FAQ 1. I get this: [ARG:3 UNDEFINED] spiders on my portal page.
As noted above, because of the large number of portals, you're on your own for integrating them into thie hack.
2. I get this: [ARG:3 UNDEFINED] spiders on other pages.
1. Make sure you have done all of the code changes correctly.
2. Make sure you have updated your style to use the modified templates. If not, that error will occor.

Example:
Right now I've got 50 members, 43 guest and 18 spiders.
On who's online it works for "all" and shows the right numbers.
When I choose "members" it says 50 members, -18 guest and 18 spiders.
When I choose "guests" it says 0 members, 25 guests and 18 spiders.
When I choose "spiders" it says 0 members, 0 guest and 18 spiders.
Can anyone confirm this?
I've got this bug fixed, but can't post the instructions until I can get home and compare my online.php with the stock one. It's an easy fix to make and I will post the directions ASAP.
What version of vb are you using and did you check online.php to confirm that spiders are actually on your board? There are plenty of times when spiders aren't around.
This isn't a high priority fix, but how do you move the comma over one space to the left? It looks wierd when there is a space between user name's like it currently is.
If I weren't so PHP stupid I may be able to do it myself.

Found the problem and this may help other folks having problems in showing spiders in the stats. :banana:
