Disable "Last Activity"?

[BillAlpha]

Hi

I was wondering if it is possible to disable the "last activity" information in the public profile for specific userids or usergroups?

For example, hide the information showing...

Last Activity: 06-06-04 12:10pm
Viewing Thread xxxxx @ 12:10pm

...from just ONE group so that all other groups can still see that information?

Cheers for any help

Thanks Xenon!

I see that now - the "viewing thread" is gone and all that is shown now is the "last activity" line. Any way to disable that too?!!

hmm, not such an easy way.

that special thing has to be hacked i think

in members.php

find

PHP Code:

// LAST ACTIVITY AND LAST VISIT
if (!$userinfo['invisible'] OR ($permissions['genericpermissions'] & CANSEEHIDDEN) OR $userinfo['userid'] == $bbuserinfo['userid'])
{
    $show['lastactivity'] = true;
    $userinfo['lastactivitydate'] = vbdate($vboptions['dateformat'], $userinfo['lastactivity'], true);
    $userinfo['lastactivitytime'] = vbdate($vboptions['timeformat'], $userinfo['lastactivity'], true);
}
else
{
    $show['lastactivity'] = false;
    $userinfo['lastactivitydate'] = '';
    $userinfo['lastactivitytime'] = '';
} 


and change it into

PHP Code:

// LAST ACTIVITY AND LAST VISIT
if (!in_array($bbuserinfo['usergroupid'], array(xx,yy,zz)) AND (!$userinfo['invisible'] OR ($permissions['genericpermissions'] & CANSEEHIDDEN) OR $userinfo['userid'] == $bbuserinfo['userid']))
{
    $show['lastactivity'] = true;
    $userinfo['lastactivitydate'] = vbdate($vboptions['dateformat'], $userinfo['lastactivity'], true);
    $userinfo['lastactivitytime'] = vbdate($vboptions['timeformat'], $userinfo['lastactivity'], true);
}
else
{
    $show['lastactivity'] = false;
    $userinfo['lastactivitydate'] = '';
    $userinfo['lastactivitytime'] = '';
} 


where the xx, yy,zz are the usergroupids of those who shouldn't be able to view that
