Users online on non vb pages?

[dgeere]

I have some php knowledge and am happy following modification routes. I just wondered if you may be able to point us to one of those many other threads you speak of that may give better detail on the particulars / areas of the index php file that should be even looked at, what functions they call on etc.

May as well have said "copy what vbulletin does". I obviously know that vbulletin is doing what I want, I just wish to have a little guidance on how to perform similar actions outside of the vbulletin files / framework.

Anyone else care to point us in the direction of one of the many threads that ask the same thing that might have a better solution?

Thanks
