A bug:

The url to a board on the Who's Online page appears as http://xyz.com/YaBB.cgi?board=;board=news
and clicking on it leads to an 'access denied' error page..

And a clarification:

Does this mod show Most Users ever online or Most Users online today ?
I think it's the former..

And a suggestion:
In the first line of the display in board index, it would be better to have 'There currently are xx people on the board.' .. because in the very next line 'users' refers to members not all people online..


Another suggestion..

I'd like to see the last line of the display as: 'Most people ever online were xxx at hh.mm am on pp/qq/rr.'


And finally a random comment:

I've never understood if there are boards in my forum.. or forums in my board..  Apparently YaBB refers to the whole as a forum, and there are individual boards under that.. However, this mod does just the opposite.. Anyone care to explain?

same here,

------------
» There currently is (1) user on the board. «
0 Guests, 1 User
Admin
The day with the most Users online was Nov 30th, 2003, 10:46pm with 3 Users!
-------------

is all it says

(as u can see i just installed it, a few hours ago)

also i have to be logged in to see it, if i logout, then it isn't there, and yea, the "Allow Guests/Users to view..." box(es) are checked...

There is nothing to show in detail in the whoonline. Can anyone tell me what part did I missing?

The following line doesn't work
<!--#include virtual="/cgi-bin/YaBB/UserLogger.pl"-->
OR
<!--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/YaBB/UserLogger.pl"-->

AAUUGGHH!!

This mod is driving me crazy!

I run into problems with steps 2, 9, and 13.

13 is due to another mod, and its problem is easy to fix.

9 is easy to fix with the information in this thread.

But in step two, I have a problem. The mod looks for:

	</tr><tr>
	  <td class="catbg" bgcolor="$color{'catbg'}" colspan="2"> <font size="2" class="catbg"><b>$txt{'158'}</b></font></td>
	</tr><tr>
	  <td class="windowbg" bgcolor="$color{'windowbg'}" width="20" valign="middle" align="center"><img src="$imagesdir/online.gif" border="0" alt=""></td>
	  <td class="windowbg2" bgcolor="$color{'windowbg2'}"><font size=1>
	  <table width="98%" cellpadding="3" align="center">
	    <tr>
		<td valign="top" align="left"><font size="1">
		$guests $txt{'141'}, $numusers $txt{'142'}<BR>$users
		</font></td>
	    </tr>
	  </table>
	  </font></td>
	</tr>~;
 

But I do not have the ~; on that last line. It isn't there in my file, and my forum works just fine.

If I remove that ~; from the mod file, so it isn't looking for it, the mod will install, but the board display is then broken.

If I try to remove either of the ~; in the replacement code, it changes just which line in BoardIndex it is broken -at-, but it is -still- broken in BoardIndex.pl.

Has anybody run into this? Does anybody have any suggestions?

Same thing.

Either way, it is replaced by the stuff in the 'Replace with' section of the mod.

This looked like what I wanted, but for some reson, it just won't go in with my board index.

It looks like an incompatibility with the Forum Staff mod you have.

This should work:

Search for:

	$yymain .= qq~
	  <td class="catbg" bgcolor="$color{'catbg'}" colspan="2"> <font size="2" class="catbg"><b>$txt{'158'}</b></font></td>
	</tr><tr>
	  <td class="windowbg" bgcolor="$color{'windowbg'}" width="20" valign="middle" align="center"><img src="$imagesdir/online.gif" border="0" alt=""></td>
	  <td class="windowbg2" bgcolor="$color{'windowbg2'}"><font size=1>
	  <table width="98%" cellpadding="3" align="center">
	    <tr>
		<td valign="top" align="left"><font size="1">
		$guests $txt{'141'}, $numusers $txt{'142'}<BR>$users
		</font></td>
	    </tr>
	  </table>
	  </font></td>
	</tr>
 

Replace with:

<!-- WHOSON MOD START -->
	if ($Show_OnlineBar == 1 || $Show_OnlineBar eq "") {
		$yymain .= qq~
	<tr>
	  <td class="catbg" bgcolor="$color{'catbg'}" colspan="2"> <font size="2" class="catbg"><b>$txt{'158'}</b></font></td>
	</tr><tr>
	  <td class="windowbg" bgcolor="$color{'windowbg'}" width="20" valign="middle" align="center"><img src="$imagesdir/online.gif" border="0" alt=""></td>
	  <td class="windowbg2" bgcolor="$color{'windowbg2'}"><font size=1>
	  <table width="98%" cellpadding="3" align="center">
	    <tr>
		<td valign="top" align="left"><font size="1">
		$uwhoonline$uguest $uuser<BR>$users $uonline
		</font></td>
	    </tr>
	  </table>
	  </font></td>
	</tr>~;
	}
	## WHOSON MOD END ##
	$yymain .= qq~
 

Yes, as long on this mod goes in first, all three will install, and all three will work fine! I'm now good to go, as far as the first part of all this goes.

Now on to the second part ... I also have added on the Users Today mod, using the version that is supposed to be compatible with the Users Online Counter. This is the small mod that includes a -list- of all the people who were on the board, today, resetting itself at midnight each night.

Problem is, it displays the text "These users were on line today:" but it doesn't show the names. Since these mods are sometimes used together, I figured I would ask here if anybody knows why this list doesn't show up.

Exactly what it was, and now -everything- is working perfectly!

Thanks so much for your assistance!
