Title: not really a problem Post by The Gaff on 09/15/11 at 08:05:19 But as this is where we talk about the forum.. At the bottom of the main forum page we have a list of people who are currently online. I've seen other forums which have this, but then a little bit underneath (generally the last thing at the bottom of the page) they have a list of all of the people who have signed in, in the last 24hours. neoempire (google it) is an example, i think srk might too. Its usually a lengthy list granted but i think a) it will show how popular/busy the site is and b) i'm curious to see all of the posters usernames for the parts of the forum i spend less time in (mwkii for instance). I dont care that much about this but if no one strongly objects, can we add it? |

Title: Re: not really a problem Post by MVT on 09/15/11 at 15:37:24 I think there are a lot more better things that could be done than this crap. |

Title: Re: not really a problem Post by Eric S. on 09/15/11 at 18:51:14 I actually agree with MVT, except for the "crap" part, I think it'd be interesting. |

Title: Re: not really a problem Post by F@nt0m@s on 09/16/11 at 10:21:57 We have this in all our French forums actually. And it's true that it's a good thing to know, but I think the list would definitely be very long. It's only good when you have about 10 or 15 signed up people on this forum... |

Title: Re: not really a problem Post by The Gaff on 09/17/11 at 02:24:05 hasn't everything else been refuted because some people dont want it? adding my request wouldn't really change the user experience |

Title: Re: not really a problem Post by IsThatAGoodTime on 09/17/11 at 03:06:48 The main issue is no one here who can do something like this wants to waste 1-4 (or more) hours building it. MVT wants an ignore button and you want a user list and there are probably some other requests floating around, but none of them have been cool enough or useful enough to me to get me to sit down and build something. Honestly, I'd have a lot more fun taking the current board software and paring it down to remove all the stupid extra features. If you want a feature, your best bet is to either find a package that someone has already created, or create one yourself. Then even with our hacked up board it wouldn't take more than 30-60 minutes to set up. If you had some mind-blowing amazing new thing that wouldn't take a ton of work, I'm sure someone would do it...but most of the things people have asked for have a trivial value but require a lot of work to implement. The users online list is based on a list of people online in the last 15 minutes. After 15 minutes, they fall out of the list so they aren't reported on the board anymore. If you want to use that structure to see who was online in the last 24 hours, first you'll have to get that file to keep names in a list for a full 24 hours, then you'll have to fix the 15 minute one to only show people from the last 15 minutes, then add something to display the list of names in the last 24 hours. The alternative is to develop a routine that checks the last online time of every member, then displays those whose time is within the last 24 hours. This might be easier... Anyway, if you really want it the best way is to do it yourself 8-). All the files you'll need to see are available here: http://www.yabbforum.com/archives.php |

Title: Re: not really a problem Post by The Gaff on 09/18/11 at 06:39:08 apologies, to some degree i just assumed it was a case of clicking a few buttons and it would automatically show up. Functionality wise, it would be cool if my pm's would work. :-/ |

Title: Re: not really a problem Post by cutz22 on 09/18/11 at 06:55:48 You know what I would like is if you could view your entire history of posts rather than just 50. I know Scott's mafia board has up to 500 so making a higher limit is clearly possible. |

Title: Re: not really a problem Post by IsThatAGoodTime on 09/18/11 at 08:51:05 Well you can get 999 if you use the search feature + specify username. |

Title: Re: not really a problem Post by cutz22 on 09/18/11 at 09:48:23 That only gives me gateway time-outs. |
