I did 2 searches but could not find anything on this. is it possible to up your memember count without manually adding a new member everyday?
thanks!

Not without modifing the code.
The number of total users is counted with a sql query.
You could a value to this result.

If you'Re using 6.5.1, have a look at adduser.php

Line 820 is:
$dbh -> finish_sth($sth);

add beneath something like this:

$registered = $registerd + <VALUE>;



Replace <VALUE> with the number you want to add.

If you are using Eve, then you are looking in the wrong place for help. This is a site of UBB.Threads users.

no sorry we are using ubbthreads 6.5? the newest threads without the newest just released update with bug fixes. actually we have 3 boards altogether 2 eves and this ubbthreads board and it is the one i would like to up the member count on.
I just can't figure out or need directio to where i find the PHP coding for the ubbthreads at if someone could direct me to that area please.
I know this seems really stupid to ask but i gotta start somewhere.

thank you very much!

all are hosted in different infopop accounts also so i need to famalirize myself with this too. I looked in the public.html area thru the control panel but did not see it.

you need ftp access or a file manager within your hosting control panel, you cant change it via ubbthreads control panel.

May I ask why you want to artificially inflate your member count?

my guess is to make it look like there are more members than there are. Not many people will join a forum with 20 members, but with 100 members it's different
