Profile Enhancements - Date & Time of Profile Visitor

A simple mod to show the date and time of the profile visitor when you hover your cursor over their username in Recent Visitors in member.php.


1. Go to your Admin CP > Plugins & Products > Download / Upload Plugins > Upload the sml file profile_visitor_datetime.xml

2. Change the template "memberinfo_visitorbit" from:

<li class="smallfont"><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$user[userid]">$user[musername]</a>$user[invisiblemark]$user[buddymark] </li>

To:

<li class="smallfont"><a href="member.php?$session[sessionurl]u=$user[userid]" title="$userdateline">$user[musername]</a>$user[invisiblemark]$user[buddymark] </li>

Save the template.

3. Open the file includes/class_profileblock.php and find the following line around line 1159:

PHP Code:

eval('$visitorbits .= "' . fetch_template('memberinfo_visitorbit') . '";'); 


Add above it:

PHP Code:

 $user['date'] = vbdate($this->registry->options['dateformat'],$user['dateline']);            
$user['time'] = vbdate($this->registry->options['timeformat'], $user['dateline']);
$userdateline = $user['date'] .' '. $user['time']; 


Save and upload the file.


This was written for and tested on my 3.8.0 RC1 board.

Will install VB4 soon, does anyone know is this option default there?

My users love this option

[princeedward]

Hi Lynne....is this goin to make it work with vB 4.0.2?

hope so...

best regards

[Lynne]

I don't see why it couldn't work in 4.0.2 except the template edit would be different for 4.0.

[princeedward]

thanks Lynne...tried to find the line at includes/class_profileblock.php can't find it...seems to be that they change it or...

would you be so kind (as always) please to re code this at your spare time...my members are keep bugging me on this one

thanks and best regards

[princeedward]

Hi Lynne tried to figure out and make this work but no luck at all...

as i said can't find this and can you please help me on this...

eval('$visitorbits .= "' . fetch_template('memberinfo_visitorbit') . '";');

to includes/class_profileblock.php

but i added it instead here to think and hope the right place is...but...

$visitorbits = '';
		foreach ($visitors AS $user)
		{
			fetch_musername($user);
			$user['invisiblemark'] = !$user['visible'] ? '*' : '';
			$user['buddymark'] = in_array($user['userid'], $buddylist) ? '+' : '';
$user['date'] = vbdate($this->registry->options['dateformat'],$user['dateline']);            
$user['time'] = vbdate($this->registry->options['timeformat'], $user['dateline']);
$userdateline = $user['date'] .' '. $user['time'];  
			$templater = vB_Template::create('memberinfo_visitorbit');
				$templater->register('user', $user);
			$visitorbits .= $templater->render();
		}

Upload the plugins without touching it i guess its look okay..hope so...

<plugins>
	<plugin active="1" executionorder="5" product="vbulletin">
		<title><![CDATA[Get Recent Visitor Date & Time]]></title>
		<hookname>member_profileblock_recentvisitors_query</hookname>
		<phpcode><![CDATA[$hook_query_fields= ',profilevisitor.dateline';]]></phpcode>
	</plugin>
</plugins>

and edit the template "memberinfo_visitorbit"

FROM:

<li>&nbsp;<a class="username" href="{vb:link member,{vb:raw user}}">{vb:raw user.musername}</a>{vb:raw user.invisiblemark}{vb:raw user.buddymark}</li>

TO:

<li>&nbsp;<a class="username" href="{vb:link member,{vb:raw user}}" title="{vb:raw user.dateline}">{vb:raw user.musername}</a>{vb:raw user.invisiblemark}{vb:raw user.buddymark}</li>

but got anonym numbers only or say can't get it right...


any idea pls...what wrong?

thanks and best regards...

[Lynne]

Change this line:

PHP Code:

                $templater->register('user', $user); 


To this:

PHP Code:

                $templater->register('user', $user);
                $templater->register('userdateline', $userdateline); 


And you also have the variable name wrong in the template, it should be title="{vb:raw userdateline}"

[princeedward]

....hmmm...did it too that variable way but also didn't go well... but now i got it...million thanks once again Lynne for your never ending assistance or support here and there...just informed my members and they're really quite happy about this...

Unfortunately, time is something I don't have a lot of these days. You are welcome to release it in the vB4 section if you'd like.
