Title: Who's Online
Version: 4.1 (PHP 0.2) Public Beta

Authors: qasic, Borg, David Downin, Charles Capps

1) WOL lists everyone, regardless if they're browsing forum or the summary.
2) Invisible users will not be listed on PHP generated pages.
3) ultimatebb.php works when register_globals have been turned off as long as track_vars is on.
4) No record book.

In particular, this hack CANNOT co-exist with the CGI-only Who's Online.

So this means you can only run your board in PHP mode?

also the autoinstall does not work it can not find many things in ultimatebb.php

I will attempt to manually hack and see how it goes smile

If you don't have PHP accelerator enabled, this hack will still work but only provide the functionality that the PHP version provides; to have all the perl-based ability, use the perl-only version smile

This is great news!

A record book though would be nice. Is it planned?

Also how about a per forum link that could list the users that have visited say in the last 15 minutes? This would be a tremendous plus!

The feature set is locked in because working on these features would involve adding significant processing time to the script and this defeats the purpose of the PHP accelerator.

Updated ZIP file with text-hack instructions (still rough). Did a few fixes with ultimatebb.php as well.

Yep Qasic,

Text file works great. Nice features in cgi and PHP mode I dont see much difference. I was thinking like alot of changes. I can understand alpha quality. In some forums when I am in there on my test board I am there and dont show. If I go out and back in it will show. Seems like it needs a few moments to catch up with itself smile

Ok, there are many Bugs in ubb_whos_online.cgi...

1. When the IP of a User changes in a few minutes, the user is shown twice in whos online

2. When whos online is shown in ultimatebb.php, it doesn't look like "TheAngel, qasic, 2 Guests", it's look like "Theangel, qasic, 2"

3. On the site of whos online, sometimes it doesn't show the name of the thread and the forum where a user is, it shows only the link to the thread

4. The link to a thread is not correct... it is "http://free2talk.de/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=25;t=000002" but it should be "http://free2talk.de/ubb/ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic&f=25&t=000002"

Sorry for my english wink

I installed it without a hitch at www.ravensnest2.com , Thanks.

Qasic, you may want to take a look at it in use. It doesn't track everyone and only shows me on some pages. Also spaces in user names show up as '%20'

Not complaining, I'm glad it's back. Keep up the good work refining this hack.

Yes, a good start... it does need filtering for spaces and few other characters in user names.

Please bugs here so we know which ones to work on smile

I have some suggestions on how to fix some bugs

1) If a username has a space in it (e.g. "mini chip"), it is displayed as "mini%20chip" on the ultimatebb.php page.

Suggestion to solve it
search in ultimatbb.php
-------------------------------
function callWOL ($whatimdoing) {

global $list_people, $vars_wordlets_mods;
return (count($list_people)) ? join (', ', $list_people)
: $vars_wordlets_mods{'wol_empty'};

} // end function
-------------------------------
replace it with
-------------------------------
function wol_alter_username( &$item1, $key ) {
$item1 = str_replace('%20', ' ', $item1);
}

function callWOL ($whatimdoing) {

global $list_people, $vars_wordlets_mods;
array_walk( $list_people, 'wol_alter_username' );
return (count($list_people)) ? join (', ', $list_people)
: $vars_wordlets_mods{'wol_empty'};

} // end function
-------------------------------


2) A lot of links calculated by wol are wrong. Often a ; is used to seperate variables instead of a & (e.g. ultimatebb.php?ubb=get_topic;f=42;t=000025)

3) Another link error the (the quotation mark):

To many places to list them all here

If you are familiar with HTML just read all wol files and when you find a link, check if the variables a seperated by a & (replace the ; )

To get it work with PHP, you have to edit the php.ini - File. But most people don't have access to that file...

Hey Guy,

Thanks for all your input. Unfortunately, I won't have time to incorporate all the fixes to the bugs you mentioned this weekend but I'll try to get a new alpha out by the end of next week (no promises though).

as you said and stated that this is alpha smile and we are very gr8ful to you for letting us test this (cheers)

lol the only reason i posted that about the main page is i had a member call my site a ghost town because it never showed on the main page how many people was browseing the actaul site but i have 40 forums lmao so the members are all over the place...

so i upped the time limit that they were logged in but because the wol tracks them very well it dont seem to work ???

not to worry i put the member straight lol
