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As of 24 Nov 2017 this modification has been withdrawn.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

Sorry, there is no facility to exclude groups from the display like that.

Thnaks for your reply mate, Can it be done with a comand in a template or anything ??

I have the old version for 3.7 and want to install this one. Do I have to uninstall the old one first, then install the new one? Or can I just over 'overwrite' it?

Thanks for the this add-on.

[Paul M]

Just install this, it will remove the old version itself.

Ive been running the 3.7 version on vbulletin 3.8 with np problems until today i noticed that the record ammount of visitors was recorded last week at 101 in 24 hours, and today its showing 318 on the 14th August ? I'm pretty certain ive not had this many people on in 1 day and why has it taken so long to update if i had. I have just installed the latest version, thx..

Sorry, but I cannot even guess at what happened on your forum.

I could hazard a guess (if im not stepping on your toes? ) maybe there is a mod conflict, have you added anything new? maybe the cron scheduled settings have been changed to monthly or something.

I'm not a coder but i thought they were sensible thoughts, don't shoot me if they're not

This is a response from one of my moderators

I think it did as my post this morning in tab says 14th aug and it had that as the date of my last visit. I did not break it htough I think as the UKMF server was down for the first 10 mins I tried to log on. Got on, all todays date, posted then time travelled.

seems server side anyway.. Thx for the replies.
