What this will do is allow you to view the user agent string and referer information of an anonymous user provided there is any. If there is referer information an icon will be displayed that provides a link to the location the anonymous user came from. The referer information is also displayed in the "alt" display of the icon by mousing over it. User agent information is intersting as you can see if it's a google bot browsing your site or whatnot. (not always though)

Update: Admins can view user's current IP addresses by mousing over the link to their profiles.


Note: For those that have had this modification installed prior you can skip the first two alter table commands in the instructions.


Download the zip, follow the instructions, use.

Thanks Dave. I've missed this one and was on my list to update. But that list gets soooo long. LOL

Any way to make this work with 6.1.1?

It may just work as is but I can't say for sure. I don't have 6.1.1 running anywhere to test it on but someone else may have done so.

Anyone tried installing this on an older version of .threads?

I installed the version you posted before on 6.1.1 and it works fine.

Should have mentioned - this was without the update allowing admins to see IP's of registered users.

So there may be a good chance that this one would work just as well? Thanks Lisa

All the labels (last activity, user, agent etc) are messed up..

Only happened after this hack..

Anyone else hit this?

Is your default Stylesheet setting (config.inc.php) the same as your user Stylesheet setting in "My Home"?

I may be way off here

nope, but this problem is occurring to everyone...

Go over your code and perhaps start over with the online.php page and online.tmpl files. I have applied the code on 3 sites with no problems. The only minor error is a missing class="tdheader" which I'll append the instructions with shortly but this isn't what would be causing your current display errors.

There must be an error with the application of this modification. I noticed that on your top list you have the registered users with a header Anonymous users and at the bottom screen you have the same thing.

Am I mistaken or these are 4 different screenshots?

Warm regards

Nope just two.

Ill go through it again

If it's just two then the error most probably lies in the template file. The first table should not show referrer information and it should have the heading of Registered users, while the second table is for the anonymous ones.

Warm regards

I know JustDave never minds me updating/documenting any of his stuff.

I updated this zip.... adding a class="tdheader" to the referer column in online.php. Otherwise it looked goofy places like here.

Just a Kudos to Dave... this is one of the greatest hacks.

We'd been without it at measurection since the 6.2 upgrade. I never got around to adding it. Finally the site's owner asked me about it....

It's great fun to see where your anonymous traffic comes from.... and sometimes in the URL you can even see what keywords they were searching for.

Well done JustDave!

Not sure what happened... I don't show any guests now that I have this hack. I added it after having whos online on every page hack. Conflict?

Hmmmm working right on my site with the who's online on every page. The two hacks really don't touch the same code.

I'd retrace your steps... and see if you replaced where you should have added etc....

I placed the original files back in from whos online and it has the guests showing again. But they don't have the referrer or user agent. Gonna see if I can find a mistake I made.. adding the user info hack.

The only file I see them sharing is the ubbt.inc.php...hmm

Did you do the database alteration?

yes I did the database alterations. Got me stumped...

Hmmmm
I just installed this last night.... on the board that uses the who's online box.

The who's online box sorta creates it's own code in the ubt.inc.php file. This mod tweaks the existing online code.

Seems to work ok just doesn't give me the image or the two fields for the lurkers. Not sure what I am missing since I can't see it anyway . ... will let it set until I get fresh eyes

I forgot I have the referrer turned off when I set the board up. Was causing trouble with registrations..

Due to the changes in the data base this hack does not work with UBB Threads 6.3

I just installed it on 6.3 b1 and it's working like a charm. I just had to tiptoe around the profile completion percentage hack.

Odd, cause I kept gettin gerrors about the values it was trying to access (they were no longer present in the database). It could be a problem on my settup though (I was testing on my developemnt site).

Edit: I forgot to run the alter table commands

LOL. I like to at least be a *small* part in helping someone out.
