Hack Name: Who was online today
Hack Version: 1.0.2
For vB Version:: 2.x

Description:
This Hack adds something like the "Currently Active Users:"-Feature of vBulletin.
The difference is, instead of showing the users, who are currently online, it shows
all Users, who were online on a day and it also displays "Most users ever online on a day".

Summary of the Features:

Shows "Number of Active Users Today"
Shows "Most users ever online on a day"
Shows last online time for each User while pointing the Mouse Cursor on it's name (=mouseover) in the list

Important: The Hack only works 100% correct, when each member is in the same time zone as the Server!

Files to edit: index.php
Templates to edit: forumhome
New Templates: forumhome_todayloggedinusers, forumhome_todayloggedinuser

I have attached the Install Instructions in a Text File.
The Instruction is in English and in German.

I will attach a Screenshot in a Reply to this Thread!

Post any Questions into this Thread!

Updates in 1.0.1: Inserted the two new templates into the template precaching (first step)

Updates in 1.0.2: Fixed a little Bug with the "Most users ever online on a day"-Count
(Replace '$maxusers[2] = $todayonline;' with '$maxusers[2] = $numbertodayonline;' in index.php)

Info: You can find an other version of this Hack here. In this other version the usernames of the members, who were already online today, are not shown on the Forum-Mainpage; the names are shown in an extra File (like online.php), onlinetoday.php (Screenshot).

So, depending on which version of the Hack you prefer, you have to download this:
Version with usernames on the main Site of the Forum

or this:
Version with usernames on extra site (onlinetoday.php)

Can someone email or PM the text file (instructions) as my browser screws all text files.

NexDog · #**258** 09-23-2002, 09:41 PM

All fixed.

Pretty sure he fixed the hack himself. No shared code yet though.

True, or there's something else going on here. We know there are participants from all over the world on this forum, so I'm still scratching my head wondering how it is the hack works here.

NexDog · #**261** 09-27-2002, 12:24 PM

Definitely have issues on my board:

If I set my forum timezone to Central Standard Time (my timezone is in AU):

I know everyone is having different problems and I saw a couple people who were having the same problem as me. The record online at one time and record online in one day kept resting to however many were online at that moment.

I'm not sure why this changed anything, but it did

change this

PHP Code:


			
$maxusers=explode(" ", gettemplate('maxloggedin',0,0));

to this

PHP Code:


			
$maxloggedintemplate=$DB_site->query_first("SELECT template FROM template WHERE title='maxloggedin' AND templatesetid='-2'");

$maxusers=explode(' ',$maxloggedintemplate['template']);

now it works fine

great hack by the way. I have it set up on the who's online page

Great hack! Thanks!

Ageel · #**264** 10-16-2002, 08:18 AM

hi there

thanx for the great hack

but I tried it and it didn't work for me

the hack shows the greatest active user count that have been on my site at one day, and the date

but it does not show me the users the had visited my site today and their usernames...

I have VB 2.2.6

I did all modifications as mentioned in the installation file exactly..

can anybody help me

a snapshot of my forum is attached,

the red rectangel indecates the place where user names should be,
and the green one indicates where the user count should be
and the the blue one indicates where the most active users count and the date should be (this is the only thing working)

help me

X-Fan · #**265** 10-23-2002, 04:02 PM

Apologies in advance if this has already been asked, but is it possible to just get the number of registered members and unregistered guests that have visited between midnight the previous day through to midnight the current day?

Working on 2.2.8.

Larry@IOG · #**267** 11-06-2002, 11:44 PM

How do I get the table of users to show up as a link from the text: Number of Active Users Today

seangworld · #**269** 11-23-2002, 12:42 AM

that was very easy to do, nice job and thank you.

Warlord · #**270** 11-23-2002, 08:47 PM

Great Hack... seems to work on 2.2.8 too.

*Clicks install*

XFLBret · #**271** 11-26-2002, 12:16 PM

Hello...

I have a problem with this hack. It was working ok, but when I upgraded to 2.2.8 and tried to reinstall this hack, I have the same problem...

Everything works fine, except now it always says "Most users ever online on a day was 202 on 02-01-1996" Only had the forums since this last May, and we have never cracked 80 in a day. And, as I said, this worked before I upgraded to 2.2.8.

I'm not a programmer, nor a php expert, but I have double-checked the directions and my following of them at least five times now, and cannot find the problem.

my forums are at www.pcfootball.net/forums

thanks for your help.
