Mod Name / Version - Limited Who's Onine Access 1.0
Description - Adds a feeling of security for users because it blocks anyone who isn't registered or logged in, and also blocks anyone who has made themselves invisible.
Working under - 6.0.2
Any pre-requisites - none
Author(s) - Lisa_P
Credits - JoshPet and MTO for reminding me that we wanted this in the last version and never did it!
Gord Hubbell (ghubbell) for his similar hack "Real Security for online.php and showmember.php"
Files Altered - (2) online.php, languages/online.php (3rd file optional - ubbt_unregistered.tmpl)
Database Altered - No
New Files - none
Any other info - This is a very small and easy to install hack. Please make backups of the files before altering, just in case!

I'd love to add a limit for those who turn off their location, but that looked more difficult so it will wait.

This is my first hack. It seems to be working fine for us though. If you see something that should be added, or if I've added too much, please let me know!

thank you lisa... I'll ad it here once I get my stuff sorted

Works great, many thanks!

Although I have 6.0.2 and the ubbt_unregistered.tmpl file looks to be called ubbt_unregisterednav.tmpl

This hack is working fine under 6.1 for me

Oh!
Cool!
This was posted when I was on vacation and it was on my list to install. I had forgotten about it.

Thank you Lisa.... and thanks Aglavalin for testing it on 6.1.

Anybody running this on 6.2?

Smilesforu,
I just installed it on 6.2.3 and it seems to be running fine.

Bill
