I don't use vbadvanced, but I'm sure it isn't too complicated. Just add the required code for this hack, into the index.php for vbadvanced and then put the template additions into a custom block in vbadvanced, or wherever you want it to show up.

Also FYI, vbindex supports 'Who was online today on forums'

What I would like is the count to reset itself to mkidnight GMT, not midnight server time, and the last activity to reflect GMT not EST.

THANKS Gary W,
ITS A VERY GOOD HACK!

BUT STILL SOME PROBLEMS IN DIFFERENT TIMEZONES!
MY TIMEZONE IS IN GMT+8(SEVER TIME IS ALSO GMT+8)

HOW CAN I FIX IT?
ILL TRY TO FIX.. BUT COULD U DO ME A FAVOR?
THANKS VERY MUCH!

I find the way to slove it..

MY TIMEZONE IS +8

find

PHP Code:

(($bbuserinfo['timezoneoffset']-$timeoffset)*3600)) 


increase -8

PHP Code:

(($bbuserinfo['timezoneoffset']-$timeoffset-8)*3600)) 


now

Nope it doesn't have that feature, and I'm not sure if I will be including it because I can forsee the many problems that it shall cause

I tried to install onto vB3 Gold, works fine for me.

Is there a way to make this hack reflective of actual numbers? Here is what I mean. Under "Currently Active Users" on my site it says there was 55 members in Nov. 2003. Under "Number of Active Users Today" it says 34. That seems a bit incorrect. Is there a way to resolve this?

bah never mind stupid me. I just realized one doesnt equate guests and the other one does.
