maybe this is just me, but the plugin stores "non-members" as -1 in my SQL table, instead of 0 - so everyone who visits the site is a member... strange...

maybe the latest version of nucleus changed non-members to be stored as ID -1 instead of 0 ? i dont know.

UPDATE:
i think thats it - i went through the NP_Online plugin, and replaced all comparisons of WHERE member='0' to WHERE member='-1'

i cant remember all the changes i made, there were quite a few, but i'll leave it to the author of the plugin to update - otherwise it gets confusing.

Theres also some stuff about "showonline" in there which doesnt seem to be getting used... i dont completely understand this plugin Sad

Hi Faceh,

Did you see the posting from kg. This little hack helped me to get the plugin working again. Although I don't know how I can get the time offset issue solved.

I find a way to make NP_Online work again.

In line 43 (or a little bit more or less) the plugin requests the user id:

Code:

$user = $member->getID();

You must add the following if-then-statement, to give $user a correct value:

Code:

$user = $member->getID();
if ($user<0) $user=0;

I think there could be more code changed to make it a better plugin. But with this "hack" it works again. I have tested it in a local network. It's a nice toy, when it works. Smile

timeoffset, as in the time displayed when the user is online?

i added this install option:

Code:

$this->createOption('timeoffset','Time Offset','text','9');

and then changed line 195 to this:

Code:

echo "<li>$n. <a href=\"$memberlink\">$membername</a> (". date('d.m.y - H:i:s', $row->timestamp + $this->getOption('timeoffset')*3600);

displays time correctly.
as for the quick dirty fix if ($user<0) $user=0;, thats basically what i did but instead i replaced them all :S i didnt think of that haha Smile

Theres still a lot of code in that plugin that im sure doesnt need to be there...

yer, so i've lost faith in the online plugin... i just dont think it works.
having checked my server logs for recent visitors, there were 4 new visitors to my site since the start of the new day (12:00am) - however the NP_online plugin displayed 0 visitors...

maybe something i have broken? anybody else having this problem?

Is there anyway for someone to run through the code and perhaps update it to reflect whats available to use now? Perhaps also clean up the code so it reflects Nucleus CMS3.22 a bit better than what it does now.

I have built a new version with the discussed changes of the code. You can find the version 1.6 in the wiki: NP_Online. I have also uploaded a zip file for an easier installation.

Now the further improvement and discussion can start. Smile

Nice would be the option <%allonline%> which would show the number of total users online, wheter they are regsitered members or guests.
