I'll warn ya ahead of time -- I'm terrible when it comes to documenting hacks, so most of this comes from memory
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.
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?
