Forum Home Enhancements - Member Visit Tracking

As of 24 Nov 2017 this modification has been withdrawn.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 "Who has visited" modification. 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.

Note that installing this will automatically remove the "Members Who Have Visited Today" modification.

Options / Features ;

* The ability to turn it on/off.
* The ability to turn just the display on/off.
* The ability to allow (or prevent) certain usergroups viewing the display.
* The ability to run the display code on all pages (not just forumhome).
* The ability to switch between 'Today' and Rolling 24 Hours display (default).
* The list of members can be set to be always collapsed on initial view.
* 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.
* Controls for the automatic template update system.
* 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 a member in the main display will show that members viewing data (if enabled, and you have permission).
* Usergroup permissions are done with the standard vbulleten usergroup permissions system.
* Clicking on the "Total members that have visited" line will list all members who have visited and their last action.
* The option to keep a record of [and display] the most ever members can be enabled.

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.


Template Hook

Please note that this modification uses the following template hook in the FORUMHOME template ;

forumhome_wgo_pos2

This must be present in any customised template/style you are using, otherwise this modification will not display.

Great!! thank you

ummm........still waiting on some help here. I cant see the mod and dont understand the template issue. I'm sure I clicked "installed"

[sqzdog]

I don't understand the "forumhook" part when installing this. What I am I supposed to do here?

[Paul M]

You dont do anything unless you have a customised Forumhome - the hook is part of the default vbulletin template.

Hi excellent Mod, couple of suggestions for improving it...

• Only show the link for detailed Member Tracking reports to users who have permission to see the link, i.e. rather than having a link that leads to a "permission denied" screen, omit the link.
• Re-Order the permissions in the UserGroup screen so it is clear which permissions depend on others, i.e. the view IP addresses and Tracking Data options are irrelevant if users cannot see the Member Visits List.

Nominated!

[Paul M]

Thanks,

1. That cannot be done atm due to how they work, so they will remain as they are until I have time to convert them.

2. I suppose I could do this, but its not worth updating the mod just for that.

running 3.8.1 ..no problems here... Thanks Paul

When you visit the page:

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/misc.php?do=memberlist

There is a column named "User Name".

The name of that column is a URL

https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/member.php?userid=

I see a fix for this one:

1.

Add the phrase:

<phrase name="trm_username" date="1191000001" username="Paul M" version="3.8.002"><![CDATA[<a href='member.php?userid={1}'>{2}</a>]]></phrase>

2.

Find the code:

  <td class='alt$altclass'>
    <a href='member.php?userid=$memberlist[userid]'>$memberlist[user]</a>
  </td>

Replace it with:

  <td class='alt$altclass'>
    $memberlist[user]
  </td>

3.
Find the code:

PHP Code:

$memberlist['user'] = $username[$memberlist['userid']]; 


Replace it with:

PHP Code:

$memberlist['user'] = construct_phrase($vbphrase['trm_username'],$memberlist[userid],$username[$memberlist['userid']]); 


And all works fine then

[Paul M]

Yep, agreed, its minor but does need fixing.

Anyone have any idea why it shows so many members on this:

Called with DO = 'securitytoken'

Instead of being on a page it shows that...

Thanks!
