Forum Home Enhancements - Members who have visited today.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This modification has been withdrawn.
vBulletin 4.0.x and 4.1.x are no longer supported.

The feature is already built into the core vBulletin 4.2.x code.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


This adds a simple display of all members who have visited the forum - either today (i.e. since the users midnight) or in the last 24 hours.

This modification cannot count guests, it is members only.

Note that installing this will automatically remove the "Member Tracking" modification.

The main features of the vB4 version are as follows ;

1. It displays the list on the Forum Home.
2. Invisible users are only displayed to those allowed to see them (with a "*")
3. Users who should display as coloured or bold etc will be displayed correctly (based on the display usergroup).
4. If you 'hover' over a username it will show the time they were last active.
5. The list is in member name order.
6. The ability to turn it on/off is in the ACP Options.
7. The ability to allow only certain usergroups to view the list is an ACP option (include or exclude groups).
8. An option to record and display the Most Ever Members can be enabled.
9. The switch between Visited Today and Rolling 24 Hours is an ACP option.
10. The listing of members can be suppressed (a simple message is displayed instead).
11. The list view is collapsable, so you just see the number .
12. The display can be set as always collapsed on initial page load.

(Options are in vBulletin Options > Who has visited today)

To install just download the XML and import into vB using the ACP Product Manager.

"Forum Block" is the vBulletin term in the ACP - ACP | Forums & Moderators | Forum Blocks Manager - From there you can add blocks. This is similar to the CMS Widgets - but for some dumb a** reason it is seperate so you can not mix and match - at least as far as I know. Just wondering if there was a simple way to use the Custom HTML/PHP template to create a Forum Block with "Members who have visited today" data in it. If not, no big deal - it is on teh bottom on my page and works fine.

Sorry, I have no idea, I havent looked at those blocks at all, so I havent a clue how they work.

I've tried changing the text "Total members that have visited the forum today" in the table "vb_phrase" but that had no effect.

Where can I change the above mentioned text?

I have a guest counter that I would like to include in this mod (for personal use only).

[House M.D.]

Nevermind my last post - I managed to figure it out.

Thank you, Paul. It's refreshing to install something that just... works. I'm going through my list of modifications that I had installed on vb3.8 and installing them on vb4 now and I swear 50% of the modifications in this forum just don't work.

[hcmagix]

on my testforum appears the vb3 collapse / decolapse image not the vb4 image? Is that a bug?

[Paul M]

A bug on your forum perhaps. It uses buttons/collapse.png, which is a standard vb4 image.

[hcmagix]

Ah ok, my testforum use collapse_40b.png thats differnet.

thanks

Paul, Is there anyway you can include Guest into this modification?

[Paul M]

Nope. This is members only.

For guests use the Guest Tracking mod.
