vBulletin Forum Sideblocks - Members who have visited (Sideblock)

This modification is no longer available or supported.

This modification adds the members who have visited display to the forum sideblocks.

As per the main modification, this cannot count guests, it is members only.

Note: This is untested on vBulletin 4.0.0, but I think it should be fine.

The main features are as follows ;

1. It displays in the Forum Sideblocks (Default Display Order = 1).
2. Invisible users are only displayed to those allowed to see them (with a "*")
3. Users who should display as coloured or bold etc will be displayed correctly (based on the display usergroup).
4. If you 'hover' over a username it will show the time they were last active.
5. An option to record and display the Most Ever Members can be enabled.
6. The switch between Visited Today and Rolling 24 Hours is an ACP option.
7. The list view is collapsable, so you just see the number .
8. The display can be set as always collapsed on initial page load (however, this can have odd results as the display is cached).

(Options are in vBulletin Options > Who Has Visited Today Block)

Please note this sideblock uses the block cache system, so it will always be slightly behind realtime in its display - the cache ttl is set to 5 minutes.

To install just unzip the XML and import into vB using the ACP Product Manager.

Blocks are a bit hit and miss as they dont store the product id.
It attempts to find and update the existing block, but failed and defaulted to adding it again.

The failure was due to a typo in the code, which I have fixed.

I would suggest in your case the best bet is to uninstall, delete any blocks from this mod that remain, and then re-install.
