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As of 23 Nov 2017 this modification has been withdrawn.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

K, I got the right version this time, But i don't think it is working still Paul, correct me here if i'm wrong. But shouldn't there be an extra "field" at the footer of the forums with a list of those who have logged in to the forums today?
If so, I"m not seeing it.

[Paul M]

Did you see this in the main page ?

Also note that for vBulletin 4.2 onwards, you must enable the [core] Visiting Members display, this mod hooks into that display, it does not duplicate it for itself.

How i do enable it?

[v_b_m]

I can't see the member view. I'm using 4.1.12

I installed the plugin. I gave the admin the permission to view.: the four radio buttons in usergroup for amdin were set to yes. And yet I still can't see anything.

I spent a couple hours in this thread looking for answers but didn't find any.

So is this now core in 4.2.0 and if so what does this mod do to the core?
