List of new members during last 24h

Simple hack to display new registered members during last 24 hours.

A very simple display of all members who have registered in the forum during last 24 hours.

It displays statistics and the list of new registered members (last 24h) on Forum Home
under the "Users online" display.

The list is now in chronological order (newest first, oldest last).

example:
" Welcome to our newest members: (18) name18, name17, name16, name15, name14, name13, name12, name11, name10, name9, name8, name7, name6, name5, name4, name3, name2, name1 "

There is no additional SQL query.

----------------------------------

Installation (there is in attached file)

Step 1

In includes/functions_databuild.php

Find:

PHP Code:

// ###################### Start saveuserstats #######################
// Save user count & newest user into template
function build_user_statistics()
{
    global $vboptions, $DB_site;

    // get total members
    $members = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT COUNT(*) AS users, MAX(userid) AS max FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user");

    // get newest member
    $newuser = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT userid, username FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user WHERE userid = $members[max]");

    // make a little array with the data
    $values = array(
        'numbermembers' => $members['users'],
        'newusername' => $newuser['username'],
        'newuserid' => $newuser['userid']
    );

    // update the special template
    build_datastore('userstats', serialize($values));

} 


And replace by this code:

PHP Code:

// ###################### Start saveuserstats #######################
// Save user count & newest user into template
// Function is modified by Oleg Subel for STATISTICS AND LIST OF NEW REGISTERED MEMBERS 24h
function build_user_statistics()
{
    global $vboptions, $DB_site;

    // get total members
    $members = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT COUNT(*) AS users, MAX(userid) AS max FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user");

    // get last newest members 24h
    $cattime24 = TIMENOW - 24 * 60 * 60;
    $newusers = $DB_site->query("SELECT joindate, userid, username FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user WHERE joindate > $cattime24");
//    $newuser = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT userid, username FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user WHERE userid = $members[max]");

    $newusers24 = array();
    while ($newuser = $DB_site->fetch_array($newusers))
    {
        $newusers24["{$newuser['joindate']}"] = array('id' => $newuser['userid'], 'name' => $newuser['username']);
    }
    // reverse sort keys
    krsort($newusers24);

    if (empty($newusers24[0]))
    {
        $lastnewuser = $DB_site->query_first("SELECT userid, username FROM " . TABLE_PREFIX . "user WHERE userid = $members[max]");
    }

    // make a little array with the data
    $values = array(
        'numbermembers' => $members['users'],
        'newusername' => ( (empty($newusers24[0])) ? $lastnewuser['username'] : $newusers24[0]['name'] ),
        'newuserid' => ( (empty($newusers24[0])) ? $lastnewuser['userid'] : $newusers24[0]['id'] ),
        'lastregusers24h' => $newusers24
    );

    // update the special template
    build_datastore('userstats', serialize($values));

} 


Step 2

In index.php

Find:

PHP Code:

// get total members and newest member from template
$userstats = unserialize($datastore['userstats']);
$numbermembers = vb_number_format($userstats['numbermembers']);
$newusername = $userstats['newusername'];
$newuserid = $userstats['newuserid']; 


And insert this code below:

PHP Code:

// ### STATISTICS AND LIST OF NEW REGISTERED MEMBERS 24h by Oleg Subel ####################

$lastregusers24 = $userstats['lastregusers24h'];
$numbernewregusers24 = 0;
$newusers24 = '';
$cattime24 = TIMENOW - 24 * 60 * 60;
if (is_array($lastregusers24) && count($lastregusers24) > 0)
{
    foreach($lastregusers24 AS $regjoindate => $regnewuser)
    {
        if ($regjoindate > $cattime24)
        {
            $numbernewregusers24++;
            eval('$newusers24 .= ", ' . fetch_template('forumhome_regnewuser') . '";');
        }
    }
}
$newusers24 = substr($newusers24 , 2); // get rid of initial comma

// ### End of STATISTICS AND LIST OF NEW REGISTERED MEMBERS 24h by Oleg Subel ############# 


Step 3

Add new phrase

Phrase Type: GLOBAL
Varname: welcome_to_our_newest_members
Text:

Welcome to our newest members

Step 4

Add new template (Title: forumhome_regnewuser):

<a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$regnewuser[id]">$regnewuser[name]</a>

Step 5

FORUMHOME template modification

Find:

			<div><phrase 1="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$newuserid" 2="$newusername">$vbphrase[welcome_to_our_newest_member_x]</phrase></div>

and replace with:

			<if condition="$numbernewregusers24"><div>$vbphrase[welcome_to_our_newest_members]: ($numbernewregusers24) $newusers24</div></if>

END

Now, if you want to have statistics more than for 24 hours (for example - 3 days)
you need:

1) to change line of this hack for includes/functions_databuild.php (see step 1 of installation):

PHP Code:

$cattime24 = TIMENOW - 24 * 60 * 60; 


to

PHP Code:

$cattime24 = TIMENOW - 3* 24 * 60 * 60; 


and

2) to change line of this hack for index.php (see step 2 of installation):

PHP Code:

$cattime24 = TIMENOW - 24 * 60 * 60; 


to

PHP Code:

$cattime24 = TIMENOW - 3* 24 * 60 * 60;
