[Release v2] Who's Online

UPDATE: v0.2.2 has been released, fixing the problem of session hashes not always being removed and replaced correctly in the URLs of where people are. It also attempts to fix the problem of members appearing on the list twice, however don't hold your breath on this one.
To upgrade, just reupload online.php to your server.
--------------------------------
Old update: v0.2.1 has been released. If you already have this hack installed and working you DO NOT NEED TO UPGRADE! The only change is I adjusted the instructions to account for an error in the order I had them in. THERE IS NO CHANGE TO THE HACK ITSELF. If you have not gotten this installed and working yet, please download the zip file (online021.zip) and work from that one.
--------------------------------
Old Update: You can now see where guests are on your board. To upgrade, simply download the new zip file, and read the UPGRADE INSTRUCTIONS in the online.txt file.
--------------------------------
Old Update: I fixed a small bug that was making one long string out of the URL To upgrade, just replace online.php on your server.
--------------------------------
Old Update: I added the missing mysql.php file.
--------------------------------

This has been requested many, many times. It produces a page that displays who's online and where they are. You can link to it from anywhere on your board, or make it just for Admins and Moderators (instructions for that included).

Hack version: v0.2.2

For version: vB2 RC2

Files needed: online.php

Files to edit: admin/sessions.php, possibly admin/index.php and mod/index.php

Templates to edit/create: online, online_userbits, online_guestbits, possibly forumhome_loggedinusers

Instructions are included in the zip file.

Feedback wanted.
Please do not PM or IM me about this hack. Please post it in this thread. Thanks!

It works that way until I have time (and figure out how) to fix it.

Hello!

Just wanted to tell those ones, who want to have a link at the usernames to to the following:

Edit the template online_userbits:
Replace

$username

with

<a href="member.php?s=$session[sessionhash]&action=getinfo&userid=$userid">$username</a>

...

That's all ...

Greetings, The Professor!

i get t hat erorr you must refresh when i try to run mysql.php adn i have not added this specific who is online and i am running 2.01 whats heres the source

Database error in vBulletin Control Panel: Invalid SQL: INSERT INTO session (sessionhash,userid,host,useragent,lastactivity,location) VALUES ('19be5cce704b80c44554bfab15efb9e9','1','24.177.166.109','Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0b; Windows 98; Wi','','992984419')
mysql error: Unknown column 'location' in 'field list'
mysql error number: 1054
Date: Tuesday 19th of June 2001 05:00:19 PM
Script: /admin/index.php
Referer: http://tmbps.allaroundsite.com/admin/mysql.php

ok i fixed it but now its not showing where people are really at

If you read my recent post on the lastxx.php script I said that I got it working on an entirly differnt server/ip than the server that has our MySQL db.

Well I just tried this script and it worked just as well as assumed. Question though, Instead of just showing the names/numbers in plain text do you have any plans of making it look exactly like how it shows up in the boards? Where you have it say:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Currently Active Users: # |
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
There are currently # members and # guests on the boards.
Most users ever online was # on mm-dd-yyyy at hh:mm AM/PM.

Name1, Name2, Name3, Name4, ..... , NameN
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

And for the config file you can turn on/off the Name listing line, as well as the Most users ever line

Just wondering, no pressure here. Thanks again =)

OK about the php3 bug first I have to figure out what it is. Then I'll fix it.

Sean: You're asking for a different hack that I already made. http://161.58.84.213/forum/showthrea...threadid=12010
