This mod will add some permissions and settings regarding the "Users Online" column in bottom of your forum.

1. You can show Total users online using setting on Configurations > Features and Options > General (SMF 2.0) or Layout and Options (SMF 1.1.x)

2. You can also select which groups can see "Threshold Time".

Permissions for this can be adjusted via Permissions in Admin Panel.
After installing mod only admins can see threshold time by default, you have to enable the option for rest of groups.

Thanks in advance.

[Joker™]

what error did you get ?

[punjablovers]

what error did you get ?

I mean to say that i tried to install some of mods manually, and i got error, because, i don't have enough knowledge about coding. So if you have time can you please install this for me manually?

I don't know of other mods , but this one has very less modification.Just parse it and see yourself , i don't have time to install it for you .

i don't understand the first of the 2 feature...

[Bugo]

Display Total users Online » a option that allows you to manage for displaying the total number of online users (including guests).
View Threshold Time » a permission that allows selected groups to view "Users active in past ... minutes" string.

is possible to do that visitors read the name of users online, but making tha neams not clickable (i know how to make them not visible to them the profiles)?

Open Subs-MembersOnline.php and find block:

Code Select Expand


        // Some basic color coding...
        if (!empty($row['online_color']))
            $link = '<a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=profile;u=' . $row['id_member'] . '" style="color: ' . $row['online_color'] . ';">' . $row['real_name'] . '</a>';
        else
            $link = '<a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=profile;u=' . $row['id_member'] . '">' . $row['real_name'] . '</a>';

Replace with:

Code Select Expand


        // Some basic color coding...
        $link = !$user_info['is_guest'] ? ('<a href="' . $scripturl . '?action=profile;u=' . $row['id_member'] . '"' . (!empty($row['online_color']) ? ' style="color: ' . $row['online_color'] . ';"' : '') . '>' . $row['real_name'] . '</a>') : ('<span style="color: ' . $row['online_color'] . ';">' . $row['real_name'] . '</span>');
