Split Useronline on Forumhome · **Released**: 05-31-2008

Description
Splits the User Online section on the Forum Home to allow for staff/team members and users to be separated into groups. This is a new version of Surviver's original modification which was made for vBulletin 3.6.4. This new product was made with Survivor's permission and is heavily based upon the original modification.

The original modification can be found here:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=135771

Features

Currently allows for three different types of extra users (Team, Premium and VIP) on top of the usual members.
This is now controlled through the usergroup manager whereby you can select Yes or No for each of the three types of users.
Fixes the saving issue experienced by users of the previous modification running vBulletin 3.7.

Installation

Upload all necessary files to their respective directories.
Install the product XML file.
Turn on the Split Useronline tool (vBulletin Options -> Forum Home Page Options -> Split Useronline - Yes.
Implement small template edit (see below).
Set relevant permissions for each usergroup.

Upgrade
Unfortunately anyone wishing to upgrade from the previous modification to this will be unable to. I was advised to create this as a seperate product to avoid any potential conflicts in the future, and also due to the differences in how the settings are done there would have been no way to keep the saved settings anyway.

However anyone who has already experienced the saving issue with the existing Product will have already lost their settings.

Template Edit

Open the forumhome_loggedinuser template.

Find:

HTML Code:

<if condition="$show['comma_leader']">, </if>

Replace with:

HTML Code:

<if condition="$show['comma_leader']"> </if>

Author Notes
The change of location for the settings was done for two reasons: it was easier to sort out and I wanted the settings to be more logically placed. This allows for anyone with several 'team' usergroups to create new usergroups based on the permissions of an existing one therefore keeping the relevant permissions. Meaning it should make things easier in the long term.

Credit for the original modification obviously goes to Surviver as mentioned at the top. Also the credit for the above template edit goes to GamerGirl27 though I will be trying to find a solution that removes the need for any template edits.

Otherwise if you'd be happy with it I'd be happy to take a look in your admincp and try and work out the problem from there?

Pureturk: For the moment you could always edit the phrase values for two (can do all three but for what you want you'd only need to change two) of the existing three groups to make them be called whatever you like. Just search for "Team", "VIP", and "Premium" and you should be able to find the relevant phrases.

On those same searches you should be able to change what it says on the usergroup manager page too if you want that to change too. the format should be "This is a ...." Usergroup" or something along those lines.

Though I think I will at some stage try and make it so you can have as many or as little groups as you want with you selecting their names. Not yet sure how I'd approach that though lol. But the above phrase edits would give you what you want for the moment.

@ killer: I think I know what you mean, you want it to put all of a particular usergroup in alphabetical order within the same section? This plugin doesn't actually control the order of the names, even in the seperate groups. The order is still fed from the system and basically I just have three variables for the different types of groups possible and add to each one any new members of that group. So it just results in three alphabetically ordered groups.

I think the best way to do what you want would be to have them as seperate groups, if you need them in the same group you'd need to find where the variable $loggedin is created and alter that to order by usergroup and name.

Hello,

I think i know the answer to that.

You must set the primary correctly for these mod's, i.e., they are mod's and regular users.

If the primary group is users they apeear as users.

It would be good if you included the option to show usergroup X and it would show all users in that usergroup whether they are primary or secondary. some may want this others may not.

Yeah I think that was something I overlooked when just trying to get it working lol. Especially when on our site the only staff who have staff usergroups as additional are when their primary one is also a staff group lol. Not something I had taken into consideration as I now have to check the usergrop's corresponding permissions.

I''ll get it sorted sometime this week so that it also looks at your additional usergroups. It will increase the processing a bit though as I'll have to make it check each usergroup. I'll do some brainstorming in the meantime though.
