[VB3 RC3] Board Spent Time · **Released**: 01-19-2004

This hack keeps track of how much time a user has been online at the
forums and adds it to the information in any of his posts, then any
other user can see if you have been 1 hour, 5 hours, 1 day or even up
to years online at the forum.

Also this hack calculates an "average time online" in a very similar way to
how the average posts works.

Thanks to the people that suggested this hack in the request forum, it is
a really nice one and a very fun one too!

Keep in mind this hack will only start tracking the time that you are online once you install it, it has no way of knowing how much time you had been on the forums before.

*Update*: You can show the board spent time in your memberlist, then you can use your memberlist as a leaderboard. For this modification see this post: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showpost....6&postcount=50

Info for hackers:
You may modify, improve, upgrade, redistribute this hack, include it
in another hack or yours or translate it provided you do it free of
charge and you distribute it in www.vbulletin.org at least, there is no
need to pm me asking for permission

well my friend can you explain why it doesnt work??,i actually sat back and read every thread over and over and i finally got it to work,and it does exactly what its supposed to,it works perfectly for me on my test board 3.0.3,and 3.0.7,the secret is to read carefully

what i did was place everything in order to the attached below,it is not a rewrite of the original,just placed in order to make the coding for 3.0.3 and 3.0.7 a little easier

You didnt do something correctly. Make sure you found the exact line found in includes/sessions.php, there were a few tricky ones.

Because if you do everything in his instructions, it does work. 3.0.7 anyways..

MojoNixon · #**189** 06-24-2005, 11:43 AM

Thanx for your help ...i checked it. ...but its still not displaying. Not in the Thread and not in the Profile Page. I´m using 3.0.7

BLazeD1 · #**190** 07-16-2005, 03:23 AM

I have this installed on 3.0.7

It works fine in forum posts etc, but in PMs it looks like this:

Time Spent Online: 1109

ie, the minutes, seconds etc arent displayed - only a number
