Members who have visited the forum (Today or last 24 hours).

This modification is no longer available or supported.

This adds a simple display of all members who have visited the forum - either today (i.e. since midnight) or in the last 24 hours. Please note that it is not possible for this hack to count guests.

The main features of Version 4.xx are basically the same as previous versions ;

1. It displays the list on the Forum Home.
2. The list view is collapsable, so you just see the number.
3. Invisible users are only displayed to those allowed to see them (with a "*")
4. Users who should display as coloured or bold etc should be displayed correctly (based on the display usergroup).
5. If you 'hover' over a username it will show the time they were last active.
6. The list is in member name order.
7. The hack is now phrased.
8. The ability to turn it on/off is in the ACP Forum Home Options.
9. The ability to allow only certain usergroups to view the list is an ACP option (vBulletin Options > Who has visited today).
10. The switch between Visited Today and Rolling 24 Hours is an ACP option (many seem to miss this actually exists).
11. The listing of members can now be suppressed (a simple message is displayed instead).
12. The list of names can be set to be always collapsed on initial view.

Unzip the XML and import into vB using the ACP Product Manager.

To upgrade from version 4.10 onwards, you need to re-import the product with the overwrite option set to yes. To upgrade from version 4.01/4.02 to version 4.10 onwards, you need to uninstall the product and remove the template code in FORUMHOME - then upload the new product. To upgrade from version 3.xx to version 4.xx you need to delete the existing plugin and remove the template code in FORUMHOME - then upload the new product.

* Add-ons etc *

* An add-on to display a 'Most ever posters' count is available here.

* If you want the WVT display on a seperate page - see this post by EvilHawk - now updated to version 4.21.

* There is also a CMPS module that makes use of this plugin (by tgmorris).

Great hack m8, realy thx

[syrus.xl]

Nice, simple to install hack! Clicked Install!

[wildondallas]

Click Install

Separated it from the Whats Going On? box, which is at the top of our forums, and placed it at the bottom of our forums. I also used the mods to have a box collapsed as default, to some of our other boxes, like Who's In Chat, and Number of Registered Members Today, so they are collapsed as default.

Wow...can it get any easier than this. Excellent.

Working well, thanks Paul.

I was wondering where I can change the phrase; "Total members that have visited the forum today." so that I can replace it with something I'd prefer.

Edit it in the ACP Phrase Manager, the phrase is called 'visited_today'.

Holy cow...this took like 10 seconds to install.

And it just *works*.

I love it. Thank you, Paul M!

[bonjurkes]

This is great.

But one question. Is it possible to have the table collapsed as default? So that the members have to click on the expand button to see all the usernames. Because when you have 500+ members that have visited, the table is very very long. Any way to do this? Thanks

How to do that is in the thread - That's the way I have it set up (collapsed) - But I can't remember the specific post it is in.

[Emil]

Ok thanks. I'll search for it.

I think this is the code for the forumhome template:

<!-- Start Todays active users -->
<tbody>
    <tr>
        <td class="thead" colspan="2">
            <a style="float:$stylevar[right]" href="#top" onclick="return toggle_collapse('forumhome_todayusers')"><img id="collapseimg_forumhome_todayusers" src="$stylevar[imgdir_button]/collapse_thead_collapsed.gif" alt="" border="0" /></a>
            Registered Visitors that have stopped by the forums today: $totaltoday
        </td>
    </tr>
</tbody>
<tbody id="collapseobj_forumhome_todayusers" style="display:none;">
    <tr>
        <td class="alt2"><img src="$stylevar[imgdir_misc]/whos_online.gif" alt="Users online today" border="0" /></td>
        <td class="alt1" width="100%"><div class="smallfont">$whotoday</div></td>
    </tr>
</tbody>
<!-- End Todays active users -->

There is no longer any code in the forumhome template. You need to make a couple of edits to the "Display_Visitors" template. I posted them somewhere, I'll see if i can find the post later.
