Total Users Who Viewed Forum

[evenmonkeys]

I'm looking for a modification that would show how many people viewed the forum total. The modifications that seem to exist as of now only show members. I'd like a count of guests as well if that's possible. Not really sure how you'd track them so yeah...

With PaulM's modification... change:

Total members that have visited the forum today: 2784

to this:

Total visits to the forum today: 3422

.. and there is the problem, it's difficult to track them. FYI, it's on my long list of things to look at, but I have higher priorities atm.

I'm not calling you out or anything. =P I was just using yours as an example as it's the current one I'm using. I'd just like to be able to track guests as well to get a better feel for how many people visit my forum.

Overall, this would be really helpful to administrators because it gives them an idea of how many people are coming to their forum. They can see how many people are registered, and they can also get a feel for how many people visit their forum, but don't register. That's always a big deal because administrators need to get people to register. Having an idea of how people aren't registering, but still visiting the site, can help an administrator think of new ways to get them to stay with a specific username. =D

It's nice to know you've at least got it somewhere in your head. Ultimately, I can make one.... it'd just be so horribly designed that I'd probably break my forum or something. Haha.
