Most ever Visitors, Posters & Chatters (Add-on)

This modification is no longer available or supported.

Warning: Do not run this vb 3.5 version on a vb 3.6 forum.

This is an add-on for the following hacks ;

FlashChat - Who is in the chat
Members who have visited the forum (Today or last 24 hours)
Members who have posted on the forum (Today or last 24 hours)

If you don't have any of these installed then this add-on will do precisely nothing. [high]Please note that you should have the latest version of the above hacks installed for this to work properly.[/high] If you do have any of these installed then this will add a "most ever" count similar to the one in the active users display.

Just download the product XML file and import using the Product Manager.


Note: Obviously it will only count from the time you install it, neither it nor I can see backwards in time.



History:

v2.02 : First Release.
v2.03 : Changed logic of IF statement.
v2.04 : Minor changes, no update necessary.

++++ing awesome hacks and most ever online add-ons Paul, I love 'em! Ever since I've had FlashChat, I've been desperately searching for something exactly what you created. Thanks!

As for the time, it uses whatever standard format you have set for your forum, to make it different to the rest of your forum would again require the plugin to be edited.

Exactly but I've no idea where to put the <B> bold tags in the plugin code. I know I'll have to edit the plugin code again for the date format, but I really have no idea what to do exactly so can you help? I'm not really a vBulletin coder...

Don't. It annoys the hell out of me.

I don't have time to look at code changes atm - at the weekend maybe.

Alrighty, I'll be waiting...

This happens when you are running in the users/posters since midnight mode - because one or more of your users is in a different timezone (x hours ahead of you) so they have already reached 74 visitors/posters since *their* midnight - hence the total gets updated. Because you are x hours behind them, you haven't reached (caught up) to the 74 yet.

Obviously it doesn't affect the last 24 hour mode, as everyone sees the same total all the time.

So is there a way to get this to work in the midnight mode?

Nice hack btw..

hey paul, here's a question for you..

i have all of your hacks (like this) installed on my 3.0.x board.. i'm currently working on a 3.5.1 dev board, getting hacks installed, etc, so i can upgrade in production soon. my question is - after i upgrade from 3.0.x to 3.5.x, will my stats from your hacks stay in tact, or will they be starting from fresh counters?

thanks in advance!

[Paul M]

They should remain intact.

I have this on all my forums - and I love it. Thanks Paul
