This plugin adds a simple display of all members who have posted in the forum - either today (i.e. since midnight) or in the last 24 hours.
The main features of Version 4.xx are basically the same as previous versions ;
1. It displays the list on Forum Home.
2. The list view is collapsable, so you just see the number of posters.
3. Invisible users are only displayed to those allowed to see them (with a "*")
4. Users who should display as coloured or bold etc will be displayed correctly. (based on the display usergroup)
5. If you 'hover' over a username it will show the time they last posted.
6. The list is in member name order.
7. If you click on a members name it will list their posts.
As well as this - Version 4 is a vB Product and adds the following ;
8. The hack is phrased.
9. The ability to turn it on/off is in the ACP Forum Home Options.
10. The ability to allow only certain usergroups to view the list is an ACP option (vBulletin Options > Forums Home Page Options).
11. The switch between Posted Today and Rolling 24 Hours is an ACP option (many seem to miss this actually exists).
Unzip the XML and import into vB using the ACP Product Manager.
To upgrade from version 4.10 onwards, you need to re-import the product with the overwrite option set to yes. To upgrade from version 4.02 to version 4.10 onwards, you need to uninstall the product and remove the template code in FORUMHOME - then upload the new product. To upgrade from version 3.xx to version 4.xx you need to delete the existing plugin and remove the template code in FORUMHOME - then upload the new product.
* An add-on to display a 'Most ever posters' count is available here.
History:
v4.10 : Removed the need to edit the FORUMHOME template. v4.11 : Hyperlinked display icon to todays posts list. Added vb number formatting to count. v4.12 : Added ALT tag to above hyperlink. v4.13 : Fixed problem affecting the most posters add-on when more than 999 post in a day. v4.14 : Updated the install code to only create the index if it doesn't already exist. v4.15 : Updated ACP view permission option to take into account secondary groups. v4.16 : Added 'nofollow' attribute to listed usernames. v4.17 : Minor changes, no update necessary.

I downloaded and unzipped the file but there is no install instructions included as stated above. All that was there was the xml file. Am I missing something?
No it's not there, but if I remember right all you have to do is upload the xml file and you're set.

Nope, I missed updating the first post when I removed the instructions file.
It should say this (and now does) ;

I really like this mod a lot and am aiming to use it to encourage members to post (ie. the reward is to get their name in the list). In that vein, I am using the members who posted today (since midnight) option and changed the wording to "Members Who Have Joined The Discussions Today". The names are currently displayed alphabetically I see, and I can see the total number going up as people post, but I can't tell WHO has recently posted for the first time since my numbers are relative high (62) and it being an alphabetical display the new name gets buried amongst all the other names. Long story short, is there some way to tweak this to display the names in the order of when people joined in the discussions? In other words, in the order of the time of their first post today? To sort of mimic how one joins a chatroom and how you can see people coming in. This would be an incentive to members to see their name added to the end of the list when they first post, and other members would benefit by being able to scan to the end of the list to see who has posted most recently for the first time. It's just an idea that occurred to me, no idea if it's possible or not.
