Who's Online showing both Anonymous AND Guest users ?

Hi,

My Who's Online block displays something like this:

Anonymous: 0
Members: 0
Guests: 1

Why are both Anonymous & Guest there, aren't they the same thing ?

Thanks

Your "Who's Online" block must be different than any of the three I'm using.

Which version of XOOPS are you running? Are you talking about the default "Who's Online" block that comes with Xoops?

The default block that comes with XOOPS 2.0.6 only shows guests and members.

Thanks for replying brad. I'm using 2.0.6 with a vanilla block. The only thing I ever did which I think might have affected this was in general preferences I changed the name of the Anonymous users group to "guests" and then later back to "anonymous". Could this have messed up something in the who's online block ? it shouldnt have.

Thanks.

I'm guessing you recently installed the IBF module, which overwrites the online users block & adds 'anonymous login' functionality.

no?

No, changing the name of "Anonymous" would only alter how it's displayed on the Who's Online block. It always shows "Members" and then whatever you have set to show for "Anonymous" users.

I wouldn't be surprised if what thepod wrote is correct. The modules from Koudanshi (www.bbpixel.com), while good, take undue liberties with your core installation.

Guys, you are right. I'm using IPB 1.3. It is very good, so I guess I can live with these little idiosyncracies.

Thanks for clearing it up for me.
