Hi all,
I am using Who's Online v3.9Qa on UBB v6.04f.
Everything works just fine, except in the who's online summary info (which appears as a category on my board), my name is not always the one that appears in the
- Currently browsing the boards...
line. Sometime it shows my name, sometimes someone else's... where did I go wrong?
The board is at http://www.seahorse.org/cgi-bin/UBB/ultimatebb.cgi
Cheers,
Chris
Not the designed behavior, but a whos online problem..
That bug was fixed in v3.9Qa. Did you upgrade or do a fresh install?
qasic
Hi Q,
Fresh install... could I have missed something??
Is this line present in your
ultimatebb.cgi?
qasic
You have a hacking error in ubb_forum_summary.cgi then. Re-hack from known good backups.
qasic
Should I just re-apply the v3.9Qa hack for that file? Could something else like HyperCells, or the GlowingNames hack have stomped on it?
Hacks interfering with WOL's is always a possibility. I haven't used those two hacks you mentioned at all so I wouldn't know. Sorry.
qasic
Turns out none of the other hacks have modified ubb_forum_summary.cgi...
I did apply the bit of code from the Style Guide that was part of the WOL zip...
This one is really annoying, and folks are asking a lot of questions about it, so any other input GREATLY appreciated!
Cheers,
Chris
Ok... so a little snooping around reveals an error on the page in
ultimatebb.cgi at line 203... which just so happens to be the line containing the code:
The error is at character 1
What could this be??
Really weird.
Is there a semi colon at the end of the line before that line?
qasic
Yes.
It seems that the GetOnlineUsers function is what populates $Online_Details, which contains the username... is there some sort of bug in the code for GetOnlineUsers that is causing this??
