you need to enalble the active user listing in the admin menu, be aware that it is a performance hog when using an access database though.

The reason it is disabled by default in Access is the database can become corrupted form using it as Access can't always hadle the number of updates required for it to run and sometimes dies as a result.

Your forum will stop working and you will ahve to download the database, open it in Access and use the compact and repair tool to fix it.

I noticed ver 6.34 would break the database also but it would not leave the forum unusable. What�s different in 7 that it breaks the forum?

The database I am using right now at http://www.cybercpu.net/forum - http://www.cybercpu.net/forum is broken as we speak but the forum works fine. Isn�t there a way to make ver 7 work fine even with a broken database?

By the way I download the database on my site and repair it every once in a wile.

Another thing I wanted to add.

These people are going to be the same people that will be pissed off when they cant upgrade to the final ver of 7 becuse they are using the beta on a live server.

Hope they don't ever care about updates.
