"Users browsing this thread"

Here's what I did when I first written the hack for vB.org.
Since nakkid's query was wrong, I got permission from him to post my version.

Anyway, this is using vbHacker so you'll need that. See my signature for a link about that.

This hack adds a list of users currently browsing the thread you see. It requires another field in the user table and no new queries except for showthread.php. It's based of the "Users browsing forum" feature so it was easy.

Cheers.

How would I make this visible to admins and mods only?

I think you'll want to replace this...

PHP Code:

    if ($browsers) {
        eval("\$onlineusers = \"".gettemplate('showthread_browsing')."\";");
    } 


...with this...

PHP Code:

    if ($browsers && ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid] == 5 || $bbuserinfo[usergroupid] == 6 || $bbuserinfo[usergroupid] == 7)) {
        eval("\$onlineusers = \"".gettemplate('showthread_browsing')."\";");
    } 


...I think that should make it visible to Mods, Super Mods, and Admins. Haven't tested it, though.

Or use ... and ismoderator().

Shhhhh! Do you want EVERYONE to know that I don't know jack squat about vb?

[Admin]

Heh, I was using what you posted as well until very recently, when I discovered ismoderator().

Can somebody tell me if this hack would work with 2.0.3? And where is the "Who's Browsing This Forum" hack? I want that one too, is that included in 2.2.4/5 :ermm:

I have been looking for a hack that does this ever since I installed my board, but yet again I am stuck with my version and am not willing to upgrade. Somebody please tell me this hack will work or might work with 2.0.3???

Thanks for any help you guys can provide.

That line is changed if you installed my Users Browsing Thred hack, Olympics.
