I just cannot get this to work. I have added the invisible code but my name shows up whether or not I check invisible or not. And in the listings on the page it is including the name Main Page.

wow, I hope someone can help -- please understand that I'm not a programmer and this kind of stuff drives me just slightly nutso [Linked Image]

My first question... I got this hack to work displaying on Ultimate.cgi the people browsing that page and forumdisplay.cgi. I'd like it to also register people who are currently posting or replying -- can someone tell me where to add the right code and exactly the code to add?

My second question... I don't want to display this on Ultimate.cgi... I only want this information accessible to mods and admin so I though if I could add it to the IP page that would be cool. Not knowing much about perl I tried adding the hack-code from ultimate.cgi to posting.cgi (in the right area) but it did not display the people online... the list was blank (not even saying "there is currently no one else around"). What would I have to do to get it to work in this area?

One more thing... I grabbed the companion script and did exactly what the instructions said... but I'm getting an internal server error when I try to look at it. This is really the least of my problems (hehe) but I'm just wondering why this could be. Ideas?

By the way... I'm the creator of the [Linked Image] smilie -- glad everyone seems to get a kick out of it [Linked Image] <-- (hehe, I made the tongue guy too)

Thanks for a great hack!

hard to say really... I had put a bunch in the graphics forum over on the Infopop's UBB board and Ted had also asked permission to use some of them in the officially released copy. [Linked Image] has become the one I see most on other boards because it's a standard that comes with UBB now. As for the others, who knows LOL -- over in my own UBB I've got at least 30 custom smilies that my members absolutely love!

Anyone interested... here's the links where I originally shared my smilies: http://www.scriptkeeper.com/ubb/Forum10/HTML/000283.html
and http://www.scriptkeeper.com/ubb/Forum3/HTML/000411.html

Enjoy 'm [Linked Image]

Ok, I have put the lines in the ubbmisc.cgi file as required but when I put the code in for the change in the cookie section of the ubb_library file I can still see my own name listed wether I have the invisibility enabled
or not.

Anyone that has this working want to post the code they used in the places they put it in so I can see where I screwed up?

Thanks,
Parker

I'll warn ya ahead of time -- I'm terrible when it comes to documenting hacks, so most of this comes from memory [Linked Image]

Basically, what I did was instead of added the following code to Ultimate.cgi, I added a variation to posting.cgi.

Find:

Code
code:

and right after it add:

Code
code:

What this does is add a link to the online.cgi add-on script from the page where IP's are displayed. Now that assumes that you don't have IP's publicly displayed of course, and that only admins and mods can view that info. So when you click on "IP Logged" from a post you're asked for a password before proceeding. Really, you could stick this link anywhere on the board you want, but since we didn't want it to be public info, we hid it in an admin/mod area. [Linked Image]

So far I'm seem to be successfully tracking members who are posting, replying, viewing forums or the main page, searching, reading bios or editing their own, or editing preferences. I'd LOVE to be able to trace at least somewhat the people who are reading posts. I don't necessarily want to know WHAT post or where, but just that they are in a thread reading something. Any ideas on this Dave?

Amy - I think it would be possible if your thread pages were set up to parse SSI calls. It would also require an additional program or piece of code that you would call.

What I mean was..

EG. on the Who's Online, it show these few nicks..abc, 123, def..

all of them are not member or never register with the forum b4...but they just posted something.

is this normal? and also, I was doing some testing...I user a non registered nick..ZZZ, and post a msg..then go back to the main page..in the Private msg feature..I see ZZZ- you got no new mail.

I'm having a problem. http://www.pokemonabode.com/cgi-bin/online.cgi I put in a fresh, non-edited script. I just saved it and uploaded it in ASCII, CHMODed to 755, and it just shows an error. What's going on? what am I doing wrong?

Ah, I found the problem. If you have the versions that you have to edit cookie-lib.pl instead of ubb_library.pl, you MUST find:
Code
code:

and ADD

Code
code:

Otherwise, it WILL NOT work for those of you with older versions (I believe it is anything under 5.44).

Check out my online.cgi, http://www.pokemonabode.com/cgi-bin/online.cgi
I made it so it tells the reader where the user is and what they are doing (i.e. if they are posting in one forum, or reading another). Nice concept, eh?

It would be realy nice to add 2 things to this hack:
1) Option to select whether your name should be shown in the list or not
2) Link to the profile.

Hi!

I've got a serious problem:
I installed the Who's omline hack and everything is working fine.

BUT: The "new post"-indicator (on.gif / off.gif) always shows ON (new topics) for all boards on the main page, since the crack was installed and went online.

Can you please help me?!

I just read this thread (again) and though I have gotten a number of problems solved with it, and gotten this awesome hack to work fine, I've seen a question that I would love to have answered:

I'm with that guy that has the chat room. A static .html page that I'd like to include in what online.cgi tracks. Can this be done? If so, what code do I need to put where?

I've found that people don't want to go into the chat room unless they know there's people already in it. (kooky people!)

I believe this would be useful to a lot of folks.

Thanks!

I'm not sure what it would involve. If you mean use the SSI functionality of online.cgi, I thought that just gave you "There are X members and X guests online

I'm talking about tracking another page that has nothing to do with the boards.

check out my list, it gives their location and a link back to them! http://bbs.upnetwork.com/cgi-bin/online.cgi

would you like to know how I did it? put the codes after the require statements

in forumdisplay.cgi [this one should also be after the foreach row(@in)]
Code
code:

in posting.cgi [this one should also be after the foreach row(@in)]
Code
code:

in memberlist.cgi
Code
code:

in search.cgi
Code
code:

in ubbmisc.cgi
Code
code:

Ultimate.cgi already has the info if you installed before, but you can edit it to anyway you like. This one is mine

Ok, I've added the max count to the install instructions, and modified the online.cgi script to use it! Again, I did things a little differently than Jaxel. Rather than create another file (which takes extra processor time and resources) I just modified the routines to use the first line in the "online.cgi" file that gets created in the members directory. And in addition to keeping just the max count it logs the time and date when that count was recorded.

To upgrade to the latest version is simple... just grab the new routines from my install instructions and put them in your "ubb_library.pL" in place of the old ones. Then grab the latest version of my "online.cgi" script.
