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As of 23 Nov 2017 this modification has been withdrawn.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.

<vb:if condition="$show['wgo_members'] AND $show['admincplink']">

It's the Master settings I wanted to disable. I do not need to display my visiting customers to every one.

Hum, I did not see any permissions for visiting members

I just found Can View the Visiting Members Display on Forum Home. That was already set to YES and it was not displaying to me as admin

edit. Don't mind me. I have not slept for 2 days now.

Hi paul, the member tracking is not showing on forum home. I uninstalled and installed it back with no luck. i reuploaded the xml files and still not showing. I also tried to view the forum with different styles even the default vb style and still not showing on the forum home. I have been using it since we moved to the vb 4x.

Everything is set to yes even in the admincp and administrators's usergroup .

In 4.2 this uses the existing 'Visiting Members' display, therefore you must have that enabled in its master settings, and then for any usergroup you want to be able to view it.

I could alter it to override the Visiting Member settings and permissions, but I didnt really want to do that.

It doesnt have one, so you're not likely to find one.

Thanks for your reply.
