This is a widget for your CMS pages to show the Current Users Online.
You will need to Create a new Template (vbcms_widget_execphp_activeusers), Cache the template, Create a new Widget (Users Online), Configure the Widget, and then finally add the Widget to your Layout (I am not including instructions for that, you should know how to add Widgets to Layouts).

The time is the Default code in the configure Box.
I am not sure why but it is Not Saving when i Click save. And it's not just this Mod. Found the same with another.
However if i clear the existing code and save it saves Blank.
So i am totally Confused
I would go post on vb.com for help. It sounds like an issue with your widgets. Perhaps you didn't upload all the files correctly? You can look in your error_logs (if you don't know where they are, ask your host) and see if anything shows up there.
Im having abit trouble with this widget. I already re-did everything but it wont show on my front page. It shows fine on every other layout and page other than the front page. So if I add it to the News Layout it displays it but as soon as I add it to the main page layout it doesnt display on the main page.
I also checked the permissions like you messed on page 3. I have that enabled as well.
//edit:
The new CMS seems to be very tricky. I didnt notice that the front page was running on the vb4 default theme. Im using a custom theme that is set too default so I assumed that the CMS is automatically set to the default theme. I edited the Section to my custom theme and now its showing up.
Is it possible to show the number of search spiders on as well as the number of guests and users? I'm sure I've seen this on a board somewhere, should have saved the link.
That is a modification. I'm not sure if the developer updated it for vB4. You may take the code and apply it to this mod, but I cannot go take the code to put it in this mod since it isn't code I wrote.
Thanks! Plugin worked perfectly and even those of us who are code/PhP challenged could understand it. I just finished my forum update and I learned a lot from this single experience.
