Hi, I am finding that many users within the list of Active Users are being shown as 'Active' for 0 minutes. Is this because they are not currently within the forum. If so, what code would I need to modify (inc. cookies being used) to make the Active user list apply to the whole site. You can see the problem at http://www.merlinhelpsstudents.com/forum/active_users.asp - http://www.merlinhelpsstudents.com/forum/active_users.asp Thanks in advance for you help. Vin |

When it says 0 minutes it's because they just got in. If they're not withing the forum for 10 minutes they'll just disappear from the list. If you want to include the active users on all pages you would have to include the common.asp on each page, it might cause conflicts if you're using the same variables the forum uses on other pages. Also you'll have to close the database connection and release objects on each page where you add the common.asp.
You might want to make a modded version of common.asp to add on other pages, take off all unnecessary code and take of where it updates the last date in on the database so that it don't marks all posts as read if the user comes to the site but not the forum... ------------- FeRnAN http://www.danasoft.com/">

If anyone makes a mod for version 7.5, I would appreciate if you shared it with me! I looked at the common.asp code and since I am not an asp coder, my head spun. I'm an html coder who knows just enough to change a couple small things in asp and that's about it right now. If not, I'll just have someone make us a universal login for our website that includes web wiz forums. But if someone makes (or already made) a mod, that would be appreciated and make life so much easier. ------------- http://www.wistex.com" rel="nofollow - WisTex Solutions http://www.caribbeanchoice.com/forums" rel="nofollow - CaribbeanChoice Forums |
