I am wanting to make vB aware of a non-forum script on my site so that visitors browsing the non-forum script will show up in who's online when I check it. Is adding an include to global.php in the non-forum script all that is require to make vB aware of members and guests browsing in the script?

I realize it will show unknown location unless I do further work, but I'm just looking to get started here.

Unfortunately, that only works for unique files and they must be located in the vB forum's root directory.

BTW, I did some experiementing and confirmed that the following code works fine for making vB aware of visitors/members browsing around in non-integrated scripts:

//****************************************************
chdir('/home/user/public_html/vbforumpath/'); 
require_once('./global.php');
chdir('/home/user/public_html/nonforumscriptpath/'); 
//****************************************************

That code should be inserted at the top of the non-forum script.
