Members who have visited today (with last 24 hours option).

This modification is no longer available or supported.

A very simple display of all members who have visited the forum 'today' (i.e. since midnight). I looked at the existing hacks that apparently do this, and they either seemed over complicated or had a lot of problems, so I wrote my own simple version.


The main features of Version 2.xx are ;

1. It displays the list on Forum Home under the "Users online" display.

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.


If you prefer, then there is an option to make this hack display a rolling 24 hours - un-comment the relevant line in the code.


Addons:
ericgtr has created a CMPS module for this hack, you will find the files here.
paul41598 has created a pop-up display instead of the collapsable display, you will find the files here.

All you need to change is the code, nothing more.

This is optional, but will speed up the query if you have a large number of members;

Run the following SQL query;

ALTER TABLE user ADD INDEX (lastactivity)

How many is too many? (2500 registered) (317 today)

[Paul M]

It will not harm anything to run the query with a low number of users, it's just that the difference would be hard to see - with 2,500 users I would definitely add the index.

Everything works fine from midnight on, but if I uncomment the 24 hour line, ALL registered users are displayed.

// $cutoff = $now - 86400 ;  // ## Uncomment this line if you want a rolling 24 hours display ## //

I'm on 3.07.

Ah, you are absolutely right - that's a bug from the last update.

The line should now be ;

PHP Code:

// $cutoff = TIMENOW - 86400 ;  // ## Uncomment this line if you want a rolling 24 hours display ## // 


Code updated, thank you for pointing it out.

Excellent addition to my board! All is well.

Any thoughts on making this default to "collapsed" mode, at least in my beginner's (dial-up) style?

It does that by default.

You need to alter the template - I did have the details somewhere [a while ago], I'll see if I can find them later. Kinda busy atm.

Works great! Thanks! Made me realize how busy my board is.
