Modification Name: Show total members ever rather than current members

Author(s): Charles Capps

Description: This is the last of this batch of one-liners.

Most boards have people that register but never post. Usually only about a third of the membership is really ever active at any one time.

As a result, many admins often prune users that are no longer active. But doing so reduces the count of total members. That isn't really something most sites desire.

That's where this one-liner comes along. Instead of using the count of the number of members, it uses the last member number as the total.

Note this number is ONLY used on the forum summary. All other member count numbers, such as those from the Directory, will tell the truth.

Demo: none

Requirements: 6.7.0 Beta Release 1 (rv199) or higher

Instructions / Other Info: 1) Open up ubb_lib.cgi
2) Find the line looking like:

$vars_misc{'ShowFakeMemberTotal'} = 0;

3) Change the 0 to a 1
4) Save & upload.
5) Clear the forum summary cache

hey, thanks for all these, very appreciated

Ya know, my fav part of ubb_lib is:
TIEM to run

That's what happens when the developer creates a hack, even the most complicated hack would've been a one-liner good job

Tpoy fixed.
