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As of 24 Nov 2017 this modification has been withdrawn.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.

Okay thank you for answering the question but it automaticly create a new question. The record info is stored somewhere in the mysql database as a number? Because after reinstalling the plugin the record is restored. I like to reset it because i have my doubts if the record is correct and have now a very high record but actually no members only bots.

[Paul M]

It is stored withing the datastore, with a lot of other information, there is no easy way to reset it, unless you are familiar with how that works, and exactly what you are doing. It is beyond the scope of support in this thread Im afraid.

this mod works fine for me without the template hook

I'm using an OLDER version of this mod that was built for vB 3.5, it's still working on my 3.8.5 board. The older version has the "Who Visited - On a new page" option, which I like and noticed that this mod doesn't have.

Is there any reason to upgrade to this from the 3.5 version, less server resource intensive or something?

[Paul M]

The WVT on a new page option was a seperate modification, using my code (with my permission). I cannot remember who did it.

If its working for you then there is no real reason to upgrade.

Hi there

In my forum, if i "hover" over a username, it displays something like this:

"Today, H:i"

My forum is a spanish forum, so i don't know if it has something to do with this.

Got a quick question for you...just setup a new forum today and I know that there have been five people who registered, however, the mod is only showing three members have visited today yet shows that the most online members online in one day is five. Any thoughts?

Thanks!

Thanks.
