Show Spiders Online on ForumHome · **Released**: 02-07-2005

This one is a pretty easy hack to install. It shows any spiders that are indexing your site in the what's going on box on the forum home page. Please note. It will only show spiders as spiders and not as guests if it also shows them as spiders and not as guests on online.php.

This hack has been tested on 3.0.6 and 3.0.7.

It's not hard to install, but it does have one drawback. If you have a portal page that shows online users, you will have to edit it yourself to incorporate the changes. Consider yourself warned.

At this point, any problems reported are installation errors. If things don't work for you, make sure you have completed all the steps as written.

As I have upgraded to 3.5, I am withdrawing support for this older version. All the bugs are gone and any issues are now installation errors.

FAQ
1. I get this: [ARG:3 UNDEFINED] spiders on my portal page.
As noted above, because of the large number of portals, you're on your own for integrating them into thie hack.

2. I get this: [ARG:3 UNDEFINED] spiders on other pages.
1. Make sure you have done all of the code changes correctly.
2. Make sure you have updated your style to use the modified templates. If not, that error will occor.

Double check your work. You most likely missed a code chunk on index.php.

Is there a way to make the spiders a certain color?

amykhar · #**289** 07-16-2005, 03:40 PM

Yes. Just change the template forumhome_loggedinuser so that the users without userids are colored the way you want them.

Hi recently upgraded to 3.0.8, I now see on the index.php:

"Currently Active Users: 5 (1 members and 4 guests and spiders)" clicking ONLINE.php shows that all guests are spiders, before it shown 1 members 0 guest x spiders...

On online.php I see this at the top:

%1$s members and %2$s guests and %3$s spiders
Most users ever online was %1$s, %2$s at %3$s.

How can I fix that?

Thanks,
Francisco

This hack requires modifications in order to work for vBulletin v3.0.8

My web server was down so I figured it out.

GamTrak · #**298** 08-15-2005, 04:23 AM

ive installe this but its not working 100 %

on the forum home it shows:

Currently Active Users: 4 (2 members and 2 guests and 0 spiders)

when i click currently active users and view what people are looking at it says:

2 members and 1 guests and 1 spiders

and actually tells you the name of the spider yet it doesnt do this on the actual forum home

is there something ive done or something i can do to fix this

Maybe try reinstalling it and seeing if it works. Or maybe you have another hack thats conflicting with it.

Just a suggestion.

This looks like a good mod, but how would I add search engine spiders? And how can I remove the space after each spider's name?
