Forum Home Enhancements - Member Visit Tracking

As of 24 Nov 2017 this modification has been withdrawn.

This tracks the number of members that have visited the forum each day, and displays a list in the same manner as the "Who has visited" modification. However, this also tracks a lot more data, such as the script (and request variables) run on their last visit, and all threads and forums visited.

Note that installing this will automatically remove the "Members Who Have Visited Today" modification.

Options / Features ;

* The ability to turn it on/off.
* The ability to turn just the display on/off.
* The ability to allow (or prevent) certain usergroups viewing the display.
* The ability to run the display code on all pages (not just forumhome).
* The ability to switch between 'Today' and Rolling 24 Hours display (default).
* The list of members can be set to be always collapsed on initial view.
* The script that the member is running is logged (e.g. showthread, usercp etc).
* The request variables in use are logged (e.g. threadid, userid etc).
* The member visits table can be cleaned of old records to help control it's size.
* Controls for the automatic template update system.
* Member Views data collection - tracking each members viewing of the forum index page, forums and threads.
* Member Views data collection can be separately disabled.
* Multiple member visits to the same page are logged separately.
* Clicking on a member in the main display will show that members viewing data (if enabled, and you have permission).
* Usergroup permissions are done with the standard vbulleten usergroup permissions system.
* Clicking on the "Total members that have visited" line will list all members who have visited and their last action.
* The option to keep a record of [and display] the most ever members can be enabled.

Four new usergroup permissions are provided in the usergroup manager.

* Can View the Members Visited Display - Members can view the members visited display on Forumhome.
* Can View Member IP Addresses - Members can see the ip addresses of visiting members.
* Can View Member Visits List - Members can view the list of member visits page.
* Can View Member Tracking Data - Members can view the individual member visit tracking page.

* All (non usergroup) modification settings are in vBulletin Options > Member Tracking.

To install;

• Unzip the XML files.
• Upload the bitfields file to your ../includes/xml folder.
• Import the product into vBulletin using the ACP Product Manager.
• Set your required permissions in the usergroup manager.

Note that by default no permissions are given, you must set them.

Database error in vBulletin 3.8.0:

MySQL Error : Got error 28 from storage engine

Error code 28: No space left on device

This is a problem with your server, mysql is running out of space.

Hi Paul,

can you let me know the variable of this Add-on to put the infobar on other pages, like a vBa module? The code from the Who have visited today doesn't work anymore.

Thanks.

[Paul M]

This will only work on the forumhome page.

The member visits table can be cleaned of old records to help control it's size.

How to do that?

[Paul M]

Its a setting in the mod options.

Hello

I have a problem.
I would like a tracking member in a different place than it appears by default the case.
Red where it is displayed, the arrow is where I would be happy.
Change I $template_hook[\'forumhome_wgo_pos2 in $template_hook[\'forumhome_wgo_pos1 it is too far above.
How can I get it exactly at the point where I can show it would have been happy?
Before the upgrade to vB 3.8.1 from 3.7.2, it was at this point.

Thanks

I get this error when trying to set usergroup permissions:

Fatal error: Using $this when not in object context in /home/content/A/u/s/XXXXXXXXX/html/forums/admincp/usergroup.php(335) : eval()'d code on line 1

any ideas?

[Paul M]

That is an error on the admin_usergroup_save hook (which is not used by this mod) - so some other product is broken.

[Drago912]

cool....thanks, found the problem product. However, I dont know where you see all this ifo at? Im also confused as to the hook you mention that needs to be in any custom template??
