How to do this

[Aitorcillo]

Hello, i open online.php and i look for:
-----
line 631

$totalonline = $numbervisible + $numberguests;

I intend to add to the total a number example:

$totalonline = $numbervisible + $numberguests + 50;

But not working (i don't know php yet...)


So i try another way:

i add $test = 50;

And i try again:

$totalonline = $numbervisible + $numberguests + $test;

What i am doing wrong

It looks like $totalonline is only used to handle the paging controls. You could do something like:

$numberguests += 50;
$totalonline = $numbervisible + $numberguests;

which seems to work but you will get paging controls as if there were 50 guests.

Hello thank you kh99 but it doesn't work

I changed the code for that and do not appear more guests.

What is wrong?

I tried it and it works for me. You're looking at the "who's online" page, right? It only increases the count. Like I said above, it will not produce any fake entries in the list.

haha of course i you didn't do wrong...

Sorry mate, i am newbie in vbulletin, could you explain to me what i have to do exactly, i have change the following code in online.php to this parameters...

$numberguests += 50;
$totalonline = $numbervisible + $numberguests;

But i don't see any change, what i next step thank you

That's all you should have to do. When I do that on my test site I go to online.php and I see this:

Hmmm can you send to me a copy from your online.php file, or attach here, i think i am doing something wrong in my code so i will see your file and look for your code, or directly i will upload your thank you again

[kh99]

I can't send you the entire file, sorry. But it's not difficult - you already found the line. It starts looking like this:

PHP Code:

        $onlinebits .= construct_online_bit($val, 1);
    }
}

$totalonline = $numbervisible + $numberguests;

// ### MAX LOGGEDIN USERS ################################
if (intval($vbulletin->maxloggedin['maxonline']) <= $totalonline) 


and you change it to look like this:

PHP Code:

        $onlinebits .= construct_online_bit($val, 1);
    }
}

$numberguests += 50;
$totalonline = $numbervisible + $numberguests;

// ### MAX LOGGEDIN USERS ################################
if (intval($vbulletin->maxloggedin['maxonline']) <= $totalonline) 


If you've done that and it's not working, there's something else wrong.

Ok so exactly as I have set in the online.php file, do not understand why it does not work.

[kh99]

Try inserting something like:

die("Message in online.php");

and see if any changes are taking effect. If that doesn't cause a blank page with that error message then you are not changing the correct file, or it's being cached or something.
