Guest Posted December 7, 2004 Posted December 7, 2004 Folks, I updated Who's Online Enhancement to v1.4. Post any and all comments, suggestions, questions, complaints here. Ed pharrypag 1 Quote
Guest Posted December 7, 2004 Posted December 7, 2004 I have not used this contrib, is it similar to user tracking, which I have used or is it better? Quote
Guest Posted December 7, 2004 Posted December 7, 2004 Mibble, I've never used User Tracking. Who's Online just beefs up the stock who's online functionality from osC 2.2M2. I see it as a snapshot of who's online and what they are doing right now. ed Quote
Guest Posted December 7, 2004 Posted December 7, 2004 ok, i know with user track i can click on a link which will show me every single click the customer has made, along with what is in the shopping cart, and it stores it for 24 hours, then dumps from the database. i have a client who wants that functinaligy, however if yours is pretty much similar may be the better way to go . . .

Guest Posted December 7, 2004 Posted December 7, 2004 Mibble, It only stores the Last Click and only for 15 minutes. ed Quote
Guest Posted December 9, 2004 Posted December 9, 2004 Thanks Ed <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's a great mod...but one thing - is there a way of having it so that you can see from the list of your surfers who has something in their cart? That would certainly be helpful for sad buggers like me who would rather not click on all the empty surfers :) Sheepo Quote
Guest Posted December 9, 2004 Posted December 9, 2004 Martin, That's a good idea. I'll look into it. ed Quote
Guest Posted December 9, 2004 Posted December 9, 2004 Martin, That's a good idea. I'll look into it. ed <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Good on ya, Ed - it's appreciated. M. Quote
Guest Posted December 9, 2004 Posted December 9, 2004 Martin, That's a good idea. I'll look into it. ed <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Hi medvid and Sheepish, I've copied and pasted and editted some code yesterday and it does exactly what Sheepish just asked. It shows Carts and non Carts and Active and non Active, using red and green "lights". It also detects for each entry if it has a session assigned, if not it's probably a spider. If you like it, I will mail you the code medvid, or maybe a screenshot first? Quote
Guest Posted December 9, 2004 Posted December 9, 2004 temporary screenshot: <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Looks good, Panda S. Quote
Guest Posted December 9, 2004 Posted December 9, 2004 Looks good, Panda S. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah, but I would like to know why the guy with the cart didn't complete his order? :P But it would be nice if it would be added to the Who's Online Enhancement of course. Quote

Tipsy Posted December 10, 2004 Posted December 10, 2004 Is the full cart thing released and working? If so I'll bathe the feet of the person that sends me the mod and the guy who wrote it! Us sad case stats watches need it badly! :) Quote

Us sad case stats watches need it badly! :) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> :D I was hoping Ed would like to update his version himself with this feature. If not, I might do it, the problem is that it's all so time consuming, and I need to finish some other things first. Hacking some code into your own shop is so much easyer and faster to do than creating a contrib out of it. Quote

If the hack was easyish and you have the time I'm more than happy to play about with my own shop files ;) Quote
Guest Posted December 10, 2004 Posted December 10, 2004 Paul and others, I just modified the 1.3 version for a shop and finally decided to release it as a contrib. The 1.5 version doesn't have to come from me. I probably won't be working on it until next week. If someone else pulls this code (and code Paul sent me) together for 1.5 before then, great! Otherwise, I'll do it. This is certainly making who's on-line more useful. ed Quote
airolg Posted December 10, 2004 Posted December 10, 2004 How do I get the red and green lights version??? Can I get a copy of the code? If I can figure out how to make the contribution, I will learn. I just can't write code yet (if ever). TIA Quote
LeeH Posted December 12, 2004 Posted December 12, 2004 I've lost 1.5 days of prime selling time after installing this. It seems the http_referer field keeps getting deleted from the who's online db, no matter how many times I add it back in. Everytime I think it's ok and leave the site alone, I come back to find an ugly error about the unknown field. What could possibly be causing this? Quote

Guest Posted December 13, 2004 Posted December 13, 2004 I'd also like to change the time frame to my time zone. Where do I change that? Quote
Guest Posted December 14, 2004 Posted December 14, 2004 (edited) All, I've modded my version of Who's Online 1.4 to include the red/green status lights. Kudos to Paul for collecting the code and sending it to me. I changed the color code from what Paul provided. My version says: GREEN Active + Cart! Lt GREEN Active - no Cart Lt RED Inactive + Cart RED Inactive - no Cart ? No session Anyone prefer it different? Prefer other colors? Yellow? Blue? Paul sent me the code to incorporate the Country flags. Should this be part of 1.5? There used to be a limit on the contrib file size but that's not an issue if the moderators approve the larger file. Let me know. I'll post 1.5 after I hear from people on these 2 questions. Thanks, Ed Edited December 14, 2004 by medvid Quote

Guest Posted December 14, 2004 Posted December 14, 2004 Flags would be great, any color is fine by me, just let us get our hands on it!Shane <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Personally (on a selfish level) flags have no interest to me at all because 99.9% of my traffic is from UK. Colours sound good, tho. M. Quote
