A better "Who's online"

Post by Charlie Argueta »

After installing, MODing, and administrating a phpBB my only complain is the "Who's Online", I don't know if you already take it in accountant, and also I'm don't have the permissions, but it would be great to see the IPs, and a better location of my users when I'm watching Who's Online from the forums instead of the ACP.

Admins always and Moderators if the admin enable the option for them.

See Ya

You've not looked at recent code or set permissions correctly ... IP information is displayed in viewonline along with built-in whois support. We won't be adding any more information as to what users are doing than currently exists.

But that's only in the ACP, and the whois is very useful.

If is a recently add-on, I haven't add them.

About the current information display in viewonline.php I believe it would be useful add more things specially for small-medium forums, for the big ones I thing the information is ok, anyways, thanks for reply.

As I've said it's [IP and whois info] been added to viewonline and we won't be adding any more detail to who is online.

I like the new one. Also, from using the snapshot, it seems as though it is more responsive than the one in 2.0.6. The 2.0 one does not display the accurate locations all the time, lags like 5 minutes, and when you click on the location of the user it just takes you to the index.

But, with the 2.2 snapshot I have not had ANY of these troubles! Im lovin' it! Keep up the great work!

The lag is hardcoded (5 minutes) and can be changed (viewonline: the sql in Get user list . hint: 300 sec = 5 min)
Similarly the location can be changed (hint: there's a $location_url somewhere which can be used)

:oops: Yes, that's right, you see I have an eternal typing error problem . Most spellcheckers crash on my typing (as do my mods until they reach RC 154.f :lol: )

Ok, that works for who's online, how about on index the "registered users" that hangs for 300 seconds?
