i'll love this if it can show up in the postbit

i'm using 3.6.4, so that may be the issue. the database is good and everything installed correctly as far as i can tell but there's no cell for the country data on the page:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

(i guess my issue is the same as the other guy's.)

Xil Ze - Bonus points for realising that this is a 3.6.7 mod, but you are running on 3.6.4.

Ok, this is the string I am targetting in both WHOSONLINE and whosonlinebit:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

It looks like you have shown your HTML output there. If you can find the equivalent text in your whosonlinebit template and copy it here (with a couple of lines either side), I'll see what I can do about making it detect 3.6.4 as well. Please check only the standard template (not one you may have modified!). I don't have 3.6.4 so you'll have to send me an email, so I can email you back a version for you to test.

alright, i've determined that, on my board, $userinfo[country_iso2] $userinfo[country] are invariably returned as null. though they're correct in the session table.

That sounds very strange. Try adding something to one of your templates just on a temporary basis: $session[country]. This should display YOUR country, for your own session (from GLA itself). The $userinfo variables belong to the who's online mod.

You can switch to PM's now if you like - that would help to keep all the boring stuff off the thread until we resolve this. If there's information that comes out that is useful, I'll update this thread.

Just clicked install!

If at some point I wanted to update the database of countries from the IP-to-Country website, how would I do that? I mean, I know I'd need to download the file from that website, but what do I do after that?

Thanks!
Joe

That question pertain to GLA itself rather than this mod. But the answer is easy - read the instructions for GLA and that exact question is addressed.

i got this massege when i click on import

vBulletin Message

The following dependencies were not met:
The product geo_location_awareness must be installed before this product may be installed. (Compatible starting with 1.0)

[tanyeri24]

monster mysql injection for nothing, badly. sorry but *uninstall* cause doesn't work for me.
good job anyway and enjoy.

Well, I assume you haven't installed Geo Location Awareness. As it says in the description, you have to install that mod in order for this mod to work.

Disappointing. I offered to support you in your native language, but you never sent me a PM. Your loss.

As the saying goes my friend, those who can read have an advantage. You should try it.

Here's a copy of something I just edited into post #2:

Please note that this mod will not work if you are running vBulletin prior to 3.6.6, because these versions do not have the online_query hook.

The minimum version listed is 3.6.7 anyway, but just to make this absolutely clear, please don't ask for support or complain if this doesn't work and you are on an older version.

Other mods which use GLA may have different compatibility requirements, but the Who's Online mod will not work prior to 3.6.6.

Thanks to Xil Ze for letting me know about the lack of a hook in previous versions.

I'm not getting anything to display for some reason. Here's what I've done:

• Installed GLA
• Installed this hack
• uploaded the hacks contents
• ran both installers and made sure they were actually installed
• turned on the options in the admincp

I'm running 3.6.7 PL1 so it should be compatible.

Did I overlook something?

[mfyvie]

JD45 - sounds about right, except the step in the middle (upload) should be first. If the import file isn't there when you install GLA, there won't be any data for the location database. But it will warn you about this.

There is always a possibility that you have a customised template and that the replacement isn't working, but other steps to verify are:

Does your database have a table called ip2country, and is this table populated with data? (This means GLA is installed)
Look at your session table (in the database) - there should be three extra columns on it for country information. They should be populated, at least partially (unless you installed in only a few seconds before checking).

Manually hack in $session[country] somewhere into one of your templates. If GLA is running, this will show YOUR country when you load the page (then remove it again). Best way is to confirm via the session table. If the data is being written to the session table, then you should at least get it in $session[country]

can this be integrated to postbit? that would be really cool
