    Any way to show what users are currently browsing the boards?

    This might be obvious and I may have missed it but is there any way to have this on a vbul board?

    It is a pretty standard option for most other message boards but I dont see it for vbull.

    Like I said I may just be missing it - and it is right in front of me - I tend to do that at times.

    Any help is appreciated guys.

    Through the admin control panel, you can enable / disable the "Whois currently online" box (which will then appear or disappear from the frontpage).

    When enabled, the title is a link, when you click on it, you can see which user is where on the forum (and admins even see the host address of that user).

    Hope this is what you meant?

      FYI, if the board doesn't have a link to it (http://www.hostinvestigator.com/ doesn't, for example), you can still access it at /forumdir/online.php .

        FYI, when you disabled it in the admin control panel, and manually goto online.php, then you should get the message "The administrator has disabled Who's Online.".
