Is it possible to show this option also to super-moderatos? I have tried to insert it this way:

<if condition="$+++++ad and $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==5 and $bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==6">

But it does no work. How can I do it?

Use 'or' instead of 'and'.

Thanks!!!

Hi, Gary!


Quick question - is this hack fully stable and compatible with vB 3.0 Gold? Or does it need to be updated?

Hi Gery W, I like very much this hack but I have a questions:
Is there the possibility that onlyAdmins see this "Who viewed this thread" Panel (if Yes, How?)

Tnx and compliments for the nice hack

Regards

Hi, Gary! I just installed this hack, but I'm having three issues with it:


1. Invisible Users don't show up at all. I would have thought that this would work like vB's Currently Active Users, or even like your Who Was Online Today - where Invisible Users appear to those who have the rights to see them (and they are suffixed with a " * " character. But in this case, they are just not there.

2. The Title Bar doesn't actually reach all the way to the right side. If you collapse it, then it displays properly. But while expanded, it falls a quarter inch short.

3. On your Who Was Online Today hack, when you click on a Username, it brings up the profile in the same window. But on this one, it opens a new window. Is this easily fixable?


Now the only question is - did I do something wrong? Or are these three issues actually bugs?

All 3 are fixed The invisible users part, it shows invisible users to all users to have less strain on the servers.

Great! I'll give it a shot tomorrow and see how it goes.


Incidentally, I only plan on certain users being able to access this feature - so I wouldn't think it would be that great a strain on the Server, for me at least.

What would I need to change, if I wanted Invisible Users handled the same way it is on the Forum Home? (i.e. Only shown to those with access to see Invisible Users, suffixed with the "*" character, etc...)
