UBB.Developers Forums UBB.threads 7 Development How Do I? show IP's for 'who's online'

Like it did/does in Infopop classic ?

It does for anonymous users.

For registerd users, this mod:
https://www.ubbdev.com/forum/showflat.php/Number/97271

will allow you to mouse over and see what their IP address is.

Thanks.

Ok, I haven't installed this yet, but I also now realize that 'anyone' can see the 'who's online' not just members who log in. I don't want 'guests' to view who's online. How do I stop that activity? (6.32 you HAD to login to view who's online This pulls too much bandwidth w/out seeing who's doing it)

you can remove from the ubbt_unregisterednav.tmpl in your threads/templates/defult directory the line that says <a href = "$phpurl/online.php?Cat=$Cat" $target>{$ubbt_lang['WHO_ON']}</a>

I trimmed my nonregistered menu which looks like this now

[]
<? //UBBTREMARK
echo <<<UBBTPRINT
$tbopen
<tr>
<td align="left" class="menubar" width="30%" valign="bottom">
{$ubbt_lang['NOT_LOGGED']}
[<a href="$phpurl/login.php?Cat=$Cat">{$ubbt_lang['BUTT_LOGIN']}</a>]
</td>
<td align="center" class="menubar" width="70%">
<a href = "{$config['homeurl']}/index.php?Cat=$Cat">Entrance</a>
·
<a href="$phpurl/$FrontPage.php?Cat=$Cat">{$ubbt_lang['FORUM_IND']}</a>
·
<a href="$phpurl/search.php?Cat=$Cat">{$ubbt_lang['TEXT_SEARCH']}</a>
·
<a href="$phpurl/newuser.php?Cat=$Cat">{$ubbt_lang['NEW_USER']}</a>
<br />
<a href="$phpurl/faq.php?Cat=$Cat">{$ubbt_lang['FAQ_TEXT']}</a>
·
<a href = "$phpurl/markallread.php?Cat=$Cat" $target>{$ubbt_lang['MARKALL']}</a>
$members_link
</td>
</tr>
$tbclose
<br />
UBBTPRINT;
/* UBBTREMARK */ ?>
[/]

Ok, changing smaller items is fine, and I merely want to restrict my bandwidth for legitimate members. The above change..removing that bit of code, is all I need to do?

yeah that way a nonregistered user wont even see it.. you may want to take out the · also to make it look ok.. the menu is just that a menu and you have one for registered and for nonregistered users so they each see different things..

ubbt_unregisterednav.tmpl is for nonregistered or non-logged in

ubbt_registerednav.tmpl is for registered and logged in

Thanks, going to do this after a good nights sleep.

Check out the restrict whos online hack. I wrote it for 6.2, but it should still work. Just removing whos online from the menu will work, unless someone has the link bookmarked or they are familiar with UBB Threads and know what scripts to call from a browser...

and if they know that Dalantech theres not much else ya can do except restrict it to groups but then that person will find around that cause by then he's a hacker..

With the hack I posted they can't -it checks to see if the person calling the whos online script has an account (if they are a user). If they do not have an account an error message is sent out (something like "You do not have access to this page") and the script terminates. To my knowledge there is no way around it except to registed as a user and log in

Both things did EXACTLY what I wanted/needed.
Thank you!!
