    Who's Online

    There's been a few times when I am at my forum's main page and at the bottom it has people who are also on my forum (Currently Active Users). This is displayed as:

    1 (2 members & 1 guests) Moderators : 1
    KingBean, Joe Blow

    It interests me to know what threads the other people are reading. I know I can get to this through Who's Online, but would it be possible to have it so that I can mouse-over the username to see what they are doing?

    i.e. if I mouse-over my own name it would have "Viewing Forum:
    theBeanScene online freakin' forum" or "Viewing Thread: Test Post" etc.

    In User Profiles it has "Current Activity" info, so could this be copied to the usernames...?
    Rockin' back and forth; that's my only destination.

    Re: Who's Online

    I know I can do who has read a thread but the WOL mouse over is going to take a bit of customizing to make somthing like this work.

    Also Adam has had a family emergency and is on hiatus until Jan so I have been working on minor updates here and there. Thankfully for the most part the site seems to be mostly bug free. When Adam returns we will be ramping up developmetn again.

    No problemo. Hope all is well Adam and all the best to both of you for a good Christmas and New Year.

    Even if there was an option for Who's Online (This Board Only) or something like that.. just a quick and easy way to see what's happening on a particular board would be sweet.

    Cheers.

    Re: Who's Online

    At the bottom of the thread listing is a WOL for just the forum, tho it does not tell you which thread they are in.

    Will add this to the laundry list of things to do.

    Re: Who's Online

    Yeah... often I see usernames down there or "3 guests" and wonder what it is that they are looking at. That's what got me to start this topic.
