I made this simple and direct hack on Who Is Online to trace users, not only for anonymous but all. I noticed there is a hack "Spy on anonymous users " but since the concept is a bit different, I made a new topic.

This idea is to add IP Traceing function so you can trace back on every visitor, for Admin only. I currently made 3 NIC areas for tracking but you can add more if you want. The three are ARIN, APNIC and RIPE.


1. search this line in misc.php, if I am right it's line #210.
echo '<br />('.$onlineUsers[$i]['ip'].')';



2. replace with -
echo '<br />IP: '.$onlineUsers[$i]['ip'].' <br />
<a href=http://ws.arin.net/cgi-bin/whois.pl?queryinput='
.$onlineUsers[$i]['ip'].' target=ip1 />ARIN</a> 
&nbsp; <a href=http://www.apnic.net/apnic-bin/whois.pl?searchtext='
.$onlineUsers[$i]['ip'].' target=ip2 />APNIC</a>
&nbsp; <a href=http://www.ripe.net/perl/whois/?form_type=simple&searchtext='
.$onlineUsers[$i]['ip'].' target=ip3 />RIPE</a>';




This is simple hack you don't need to create new folder or files. You can trace the user to his/her ISP almost directly.

Hold on a moment. What do you mean by

Quote:
so i upgraded from wf-sections 2 to wf-sections 2.0.7 beta,


Did you uninstall the old version (hence loosing your content) and then install the beta?

Or did you just copy over the files (which is not supposed to work because of database changes)?

If you did the first i hope you still have a backup of the old situation.

Please tell me so we can move on from there. Also you might wanna open this topic also on wf-projects.com because its easy for me to miss it here on the frontpage while "at home" that would most likely not happen.
(still we will post the solution at the end here too for sure)

I find it confusing though that the answer of this basic question has to be found under 'development information'...

Did you take the time to search inside any doc ?

Quote:

Thinking about it again, actually the answer is 'not possible' Or is it? I mean, getting the news content on your index.php page...

You gave the answer yourself no ?
I'm not sure to understand.

Help w/ User Selection Drop Down

I need to have a drop down menu display a list of users.

Preferably, it should be only those users who are selected in my group permissions for a specific task. However, if I can only do a all XOOPS users selection, that would be OK.

Thanks,

JMass

I had a quick look, doesn't look too difficult Still, make a backup of the files first in case you have problems.

in index.php find:

$story['title'] = $thisstory->textlink().'&nbsp;:&nbsp;'.$story['title'];

change it to this:

$story['title'] .= '&nbsp;:&nbsp;'.$thisstory->textlink();

If you want to change the article title the same way try this...

in article.php find:
$story['title'] = $article->textlink()."&nbsp;:&nbsp;".$article->title();

Change it to:
$story['title'] = $article->title()."&nbsp;:&nbsp;".$article->textlink();

Hope it's what you're after...

Re: server -> no logfiles

You are talking about the web server logs? If so then XOOPS would not affect that in any way.

Check the server config and verify where the logs are supposed to be including the error log. If the location is in the same directory as other logs (and the config is correct) then the most common reason is a failed log rotation. You might still be writing to the rotated log file or into /dev/null. A web server restart should restart the log in the right place.

Nothing wrong with changing that. Release early, release often.


Yeah, sometimes I wake up in the morning and just want to give it all away!! And we don't think twice about releasing stuff that's related to the core. But modules that provide specific functionality are another story.

It's a more complicated issue than just "release early and often." Doing that would help make our product better than others, and would make lots of people want to use it, etc. So that's a good thing right?

But the problem is, our "product" is not the product. We're not trying to compete with others who make products like our modules. Our product is the overall service we can provide to customers. And some of our XOOPS modules are key ways we can differentiate our services from other competitors in the consulting marketplace. They let us do things for clients that other consultants can't provide.

So it's not really about releasing the software, it's about the effect releasing the software would have on our competitors' ability to compete with us for new clients. Releasing the code levels the playing field between us.

That's the fundamental effect of open source software on the entire software industry.

But why should we level a playing field we think is in our favour right now? One train of thought says that since we think we're better on other merits too, who cares if we level the playing field?

As a not-for-profit enterprise in the first place, leveling playing fields is sort of what we're interested in. It helps raise the tide for everyone, which is a goal of ours. But not if it undercuts our business so we can't go on doing that.

I suspect we will release it all eventually. A lot of things become very simply when everything is open source *and* freely available. But how and when I'm not sure.

I think the issue is very similar for others who do similar things like Andy Mayer and his event manager module. If you're reading Andy, I'd love to hear your thoughts.
