If anyone has it installed, many people waiting for a screen shot

Is this like members who have visited in the last 24 hours? and guets visit
Or just members who have visited...
(both made by paul M )

[TheWhite]

does this combine both members and guests?

[Marco van Herwaarden]

If i have time i will make some screenshots in a bit. I have it running on a board where i could make some screenshots (no use making screenshots from my localhost as there are not many visiting my localhost ).

To answer some of the other questions:

Yes this is like the Members Visisted Today, with the following differences:
- Optimised for bigger boards
- All information is collected by a Scheduled Task, no queries run on your forum home page
- List total members visited for up to 3 timespans (default 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days)
- Will show the list of membernames for the first timespan (24 hours). You can optinally maximize the number of names listed on the forumhome page (reduce page size!). If more members have visited, you will get a link to a second page where the full list can be shown.
- You can choose to only show the names, apply their usergroup HTML markup, or link to their profiles. All these options are to allow for further reduction of the pagesize of forumhome.
- Can store the info in either datastore or filesystem (usefull with a caching like APC)

Will it also list guests: No

Background on this mod:
I am server admin for a site that has between 600 ad 1.600 members online. The owner loves member statistics, but other modifications added too much processing, and maybe more important they increased the pagesize with sometimes more then 500K (consider 6.000+ unique members visiting each day, take the size of their names, HTML markup, HTML-code to link to their profiles etc....). This was written to both keep the size of the forumhome page low, with less processing needed on forumhome and still be able to show the statistics.

Ok, screenshots added

PS Deleted all posts only asking for a screenshot.

Thanx for the info marco, I don't run a big board, but if it does reduce some database load as it can carry over to file system I may consider using it.

[Marco van Herwaarden]

It does reduce the load compaired to a modification that would query the database for each load of the homepage (sorry i don't know for sure how other mod's are coded).

[TheWhite]

well if it summed the members and guests it would have been an excellent mod but as it is i'll stick with the other one anyway good work

[HPIA]

This is good for Big boards...

Agreed...

[Steve B]

Just tried this and I am getting the following error when the cron is run..

Gather Statistics on Members Visited

Warning: implode() [function.implode]: Bad arguments. in /includes/cron/mh_mv_stats.php on line 144

Done

line 144 reads

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

I have tried it with both the database writing and also the file writing with the same error.

Any ideas please?

[Marco van Herwaarden]

What PHP version are you using?
What is the setting for the number of names to show on your forum home in your vBulletin Options?
And how many members did you aproximatly had online during the last day?

[Steve B]

Details as requested.

PHP 4.4.4
Number of names: 200
Test site with closed access apart from 4 mods: its showing no names at all, but under Members Visited Statistics: Last 24 Hours: 1 - Last 7 Days: 2 - Last 30 Days: 4 which seems to be right?

I do currently have show names activated, Clickable Membernames for First Timespan list set to yes and Use Usergroup Markup for Member names enabled as well.
