Update - Version 1.3.1:

• Added option to turn off online status tooltip from all memberaction dropdown links.

That was fast! I can't believe how responsive you are. Thank you again.

I feel really dumb asking this but what is the ' online status tooltip' and where are the 'memberaction dropdowns'. I've set your last setting to yes and no but don't see any difference. I can still see the little box that says "x is offline now". I hate to bother you with this but really appreciate your responsiveness.

On edit: I should add that I was looking on the postbit legacy if that helps

This last change was pretty simple to implement.

A tooltip is handled by an HTML element's "alt" and/or "title" attribute. It is the informative popup that you get when you hover your mouse cursor over an element with such attribute(s) defined.

The member action dropdowns are the popup menus that appear when you click a username in certain places, such as the last poster of threads you see on the forum home page, or the username in postbits.

The tooltip on the usernames is what the latest setting will turn off. If you choose to turn off the tooltip, then hovering your mouse cursor over a username with the memberaction dropdown associated with it, there will be no tooltip.

Can you post a screenshot of exactly what it is you want disabled?

Okay, I think I know what you're talking about now...

Update - Version 1.3.2:

• Amended option to turn off online status tooltip from all memberaction dropdown links to include online status indicators in postbits.

[chloe101]

I think what I'm talking about is the tooltip then. Unfortunately, I can't take a screenshot because the minute I hit another key to take the screenshot, the message disappears. I'm currently logged in as a normal user, not an Admin. When I put my cursor over the little gray circle button next to the name, it returns the text "(name) is online" - the same way it works here when you hover over the green online status button next to a user's name.

[MarkFL]

Yeah, I'm certain we're talking about the same thing...with version 1.3.2, you should find when you disable them, that little green/gray indicator is gone.

[chloe101]

That's it exactly! Thank you! Every trace of a member's online status is totally gone even on the CMS homepage where the tooltip was showing up in the articles. You just saved me huge headaches because I couldn't find what was controlling that tooltip in the templates. I wish I could send you a box of chocolates!

Just knowing you have achieved your goal is treat enough for me.

Mmmm...yummy!

[chloe101]

Hi Mark, It's me again sigh.... (or rather lol). When the mod is activated to hide all users except from admin, it also hides the total number in the What's Going On box under "Currently Active Users". Is there a way to get that number back but still keep the status hidden? I made a template change that already removes the usernames for privacy but I'd dearly love to have the total number showing . Is this possible?

[MarkFL]

Hidden users will be counted among guests in that case I believe.

They're not counting as guests because I set "Show Hidden Users As Guests?" to no. And compared the results the Admin gets with my registered user test account- they're totally removed. It would be great if "Show Hidden Users As Guests" is set to no, that the number appear in "currently active users".

I'm asking a lot I know. Chocolates by Fedex?

[MarkFL]

Try setting "Show Hidden Users As Guests?" to Yes...otherwise it sounds like the product is behaving as intended.

Another option would be to try disabling the plugin titled "Remove Selected Users From Currently Active Users (WGO)" since you have edited your template to hide the usernames.

Thank you!! Option 2, deactivating the plugin, did the trick. Fedex or DHL?
