Online Users Module

No, I run PHP5 and it still bites with UTF-8

Some reading:

* UTF-8 BOM on w3.org
* PHP bug discussion
* Google search

In the bug discussion, I see that it's implemented as a compile configuration option "--enable-zend-multibyte", so it's indeed possible that PHP does not recognize the BOM, even if it is a newer version. I looked into this problem a while back for a customer of ours and then it looked as if this option would become a standard option. Now, the PHP people seem to have switched to PHP6 as the target for a real fix (judging on the last post on the bug page).

So over all, the only real fix is to save the UTF-8 without the BOM or to delete the BOM from an already saved file.

I have tried it before but can't work.
If I check all the box and fill in all the blank.
It only show "users are reading this forum."
I have set the "track user usage" to be 5 mins
Is this mod can't use in 5.1.23?

hi, would it be possible to show users, moderators and admins and not just users and admins, so that moderators could have their names in bold italics without full admin access :)
thanks!

sure, you just need to hack the module ;).
Its simply not as easy. Admins have a single flag telling that they are admins. For determining if the user is a moderator you need to check the permissions for the current forum with a separate function.

this module works good and gives the names of the registered users.
but I received all the time

Guests: 1

a bug? or something else? in this module.

what do you think?

a Guest would be a user that is not logged in

yes, but I'am sure that there is more than 1 guest online,
and the number is static!

Hi together,

Online Users works fine for me, thank you very much!

Additional i'm searching for a hack that adds the 3 newest Users into the Online Users overview. Does anyone know / already uses this kind of hack and would help me out?

Thank you
Sun

aditional to my question above a new question: has anyone already modified this module for phorum 5.2?

Thank you
Sun
