How do i disable hidden users option ???
Admin/ Edit Features and Options/ Enable Who's Online (uncheck)
It would be great if the admin could remove this feature from users... who enable themselves to be invisible on the forum...instead of disabling the "who's online" function.
I just don't see why this would be useful - if you're an admin, you can see who's online even if they're hidden, right?
Why shouldn't users stay hidden if that's what they want? Since the availability of so much information about what they're doing could be construed as some kind of spying, it's not just a simple case of stating who's 'online'.
with the extra code below only admin can hide his status :)
in Themes/default/profile.template.php
search for
echo '
<tr>
<td width="40%"><b>', $txt['show_online'], '</b></td>
<td><input type="hidden" name="showOnline" value="0" /><input type="checkbox" name="showOnline"', $context['member']['show_online'] ? ' checked="checked"' : '', ' value="1" class="check" /></td>
</tr>';
replaced with
if ($context['user']['is_admin'])
{
echo '
<tr>
<td width="40%"><b>', $txt['show_online'], '</b></td>
<td><input type="hidden" name="showOnline" value="0" /><input type="checkbox" name="showOnline"', $context['member']['show_online'] ? ' checked="checked"' : '', ' value="1" class="check" /></td>
</tr>';
}
Tnx.. babylonking
