Forum Home Enhancements - Member Visit Tracking

As of 23 Nov 2017 this modification has been withdrawn.

This tracks the number of members that have visited the forum each day, and displays a list in the same manner as the Members Who Have Visited Today display. However, this also tracks a lot more data, such as the script (and request variables) run on their last visit, and all threads and forums visited.

Options / Features

* The script that the member is running is logged (e.g. showthread, usercp etc).
* The request variables in use are logged (e.g. threadid, userid etc).
* The member visits table can be cleaned of old records to help control it's size.
* Member Views data collection - tracking each members viewing of the forum index page, forums and threads.
* Member Views data collection can be separately disabled.
* Multiple member visits to the same page are logged separately.
* Clicking on the main display icon will list the recent visits by all members (if allowed).
* Clicking on a member in the main display will show that members viewing data (if enabled, and you have permission).
* Clicking on the "Total members that have visited" line will list all members who have visited and their last action.
* Usergroup permissions are done with the standard vbulleten usergroup permissions system.

Four new usergroup permissions are provided in the usergroup manager.

* Can View the Members Visited Display - Members can view the members visited display on Forumhome.
* Can View Member IP Addresses - Members can see the ip addresses of visiting members.
* Can View Member Visits List - Members can view the list of member visits page.
* Can View Member Tracking Data - Members can view the individual member visit tracking page.

* All (non usergroup) modification settings are in vBulletin Options > Member Tracking.


To install;

• Unzip the XML files.
• Upload the bitfields file to your ../includes/xml folder.
• Import the product into vBulletin using the ACP Product Manager.
• Set your required permissions in the usergroup manager.

Note that by default no permissions are given, you must set them.

Note: You must enable the [core] Visiting Members display, this mod hooks into that display, it does not duplicate the display for itself.

Hi mate,

Upgraded to 4.0.8 and although the functionality works it's all messed up looking!

Edit:

For anyone wanting a quick fix:

This fixes it but it's "Display_Members" template for this mod.

Ah, damn, I forgot about this one, and the guest tracking as well.

Works great now on 4.0.8



Thanx Paul!

Hey Paul,

Not sure if this is part of your mod or not but just in case it is.... I upgraded to 4.0.8 and ended up having the WGO area without the box and header graphics. I just uploaded your upgrade but the issue remains. Any idea?

[Paul M]

Nope, no idea - kinda looks like you are missing a load of css - is that a customised style ? If so you may need to revert some css templates.

[Footman]

Yep Paul... It was a combination of the vB upgrade to 4.0.8 and my custom theme. Just had to revert the forumhome template. Of course uploading your newest update helped the alignment issue.

Oh and I see vBulletin is now using 4.0.9. Guess we can expect yet ANOTHER update soon... joy!

Thank you for this great mod!

But I face some problems with it. My vBulletin version is 4.0.8 suite.

When the display collapse option is set to <YES> from the control panel the mod does not work at all. When I click on the arrow for the mod to get expanded no info are shown.... This does not happen if the display collapse option is set to ''no''.

The same problem happens to me with another mod called ''Track Guest Visits'' of the same Coder.

if anybody knows how to overcome the problem please advise me what to do....

Thank you in advance for every reply!

Regards,
''Michael''
