Forum Home Enhancements - Members who have visited Today (or in the 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 the users midnight) or in the last 24 hours.

Note: it is not possible for this hack to count guests - however, see this thread to track guests.

The main features of the 3.6 version 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 will 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 mod is phrased.
8. The ability to turn it on/off is in the ACP Options.
9. The ability to allow only certain usergroups to view the list is an ACP option (include or exclude groups).
10. The switch between Visited Today and Rolling 24 Hours is an ACP option.
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.
13. The option to record and display the Most Ever visitors has been added (v4.43+).

(Options are in vBulletin Options > Who has visited today)

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

To upgrade from the 3.5 version just re-import the product with the overwrite option set to yes.


EvilHawk has also updated his WVT on a seperate page, see this post.

I would like to remove the underlines from the list of usernames. I'm assuming something like change rel="nofollow" to rel="nofollow" style="text-decoration:none;"

Which template does this use?

Template management tip: Don't edit the default template. Create a child template and edit that instead. Then, when everything works as it should, set this child template as forum default.

I tried it as a child forum but it still didnt work. How do I do it manually?

Child template you mean? Not forum.

[Riboflavin]

Yes, template sorry. My mind was wondering.

[Marsupilami]

1)
First go to maintenance / update counters:

Click the button "rebulid styles" with the options set to:

• "Check For Styles With No Parent" set to "yes"
• "Renumber all templates from 1" set to "no".

Did this help? If not, then proceed.

2)
In the admincp, under vbulletin options / style & language settings:

Set "default style" to what you want it to be.

Then go into styles & templates /style manager:

Check the checkbox to the left of the style you want the users to have.
Then, (at least until you solved this problem), uncheck the checkboxes to the left of all the other checkboxes, so that the users cannot select those styles.

Did this help? If not, then proceed.

3)
Then go into forums & moderators / forum manager:

Edit each of the forums and set "custom style for this forum" to "use default style".
Or, you can set "Override Users' Style Choice" to "no" for each forum.
Freferrably you do both.

Now your users can only see the forum with the default style you selected above.

Did this help? Really hope so.

Two question:

• Can your users see the information field "Currently Active Users:"?
• Have your users selected to "browse invisible"?

Good luck!

• Patched to vb 3.5.5

• Upgraded to:
  • vb 3.6.0 gold
  • LDM 2.2.5 (overwrite)
  • vbadvanced 2.2.0 (overwrite)
  • Who has visited 4.3.1 (overwrite)
• Propagated hoards of template changes

Everything is running OK except Timeslip which was broken in vb 3.6.0 due to changes in database structure.
When Timeslip works with vb3.6.0 i will go 3.6.0 on the target site.

Remember to overwrite when upgrading the pruducts.
Can it be that you have two instances of "Who has visited" installed?

I can only assume that the plugin is installed twice, but when I use the uninstaller to remove the plugin -- all is well. If I re-install using the Overwrite, I still have double.

I'd like to uninstall the plugin and then locate the floaters and delete them manually. Then reinstall the plugin again... any suggestions on where to find these floaters (whether it's in the DB or not?).

Thanks!

Unfortunatly that didn't work The style shows up just fine, it just doesn't appear to be adding the code into the style, its only adding it to the old style.

I can see Currently Active Users:, and no, no one is invisible.

Sorry, without admin/ftp access to your forum I cannot see what is going on, you seem to have some internal problem causing a hook to be run twice.

At a guess, your custom style is probably missing the required html comment that this looks for.
