Users are held in who's online block long after they're gone

I've got indications continually of users that are online, but as a rule the majority shown are long gone.

Is there a way to drop them quickly or maybe with a timeout or something when they've gone.

I know they're supposed to logout, but that isn't the case.

I don't think they're too concerned about whether I think they should logout or not. Sure I know it looks like I've got a bunch of users lurking around the site, but to be honest... I just as soon know the true number

Hi, look for
Quote:
// Use persistent connection? (Yes=1 No=0)
// Default is 'Yes'. Choose 'Yes' if you are unsure.
define('XOOPS_DB_PCONNECT', 1);

in your mainfile.php file. If you have a "1" in the ('XOOPS_DB_PCONNECT', 1) then try changing it to a "0". Then update system module.

If you already have a "0" then i'm not sure how you can fix it otherwise.

Let me know how you go.

Booga.

If you use the search you should come up with some threads regarding this behavior. Basicly you can reach a better (not perfect)accuracy at the cost of more database queries.

So if it is a small site you might use that way.


Also this might help:
