This mod allows you to watch various information from your forum in your Firefox browser's status bar. To use it you should install the SMF Watcher extension (https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/58681/) on your Firefox browser as well. After installation go to the settings window of the extension and enter the following URL in the corresponding field:
http://address-of-your-forum/watcher.php
Currently it displays the following values:
- Number of users online
- Number of guests online
- Total number of visitors online
- List of users online
and this list can be expanded by your request.
EDIT:
It kept showing members and guests who were nolonger at the site, so removed it.
Is there any way to bury it deeper in ones directory so no one can access it?
As it sits now, anyone with SMF Watcher Add-on installed in FF can start plugging in any site
to see if they have Watcher installed as well.....
I like the idea of the Mod, just not it's ease of access for anyone.....
I am using SMF 1.1.11
I know this is a really old topic and wonder if this mod is still being supported.. I've been using it for the past 6 months with Firefox 3.5.xx, and love it... But today I just updated Firefox to 4.0.1 and this mod is not supported by firefox 4 :( Any chance we'll see an update to the firefox add-on?
i created some windows 7 gadget for this :)
