Active Users!?
« on: January 29, 2009, 11:14:48 AM »
If you are wondering what's up with the Active users area...right above "Who is viewing this thread?", then you are....correct to wonder.

I have just finished a mod that I call.."Active users in thread".
http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=1610

We, the staff have decided to implement this mod into these forums.  Doing so you are able to see who is subscribed to your threads and who is subscribed to other threads.  It is much much better to know WHO has posted than it is to know that there 15 pages worth of posts.  IMHO.

So...enjoy the mod everyone

For the record, the link zanus posted above will be broken until the SMF team approves his modification for public publishing.

It scared me for a minute when I first saw it, but it's actually pretty cool.  Nice job.

Scared you in an immediate and surprising way, like "Someone jumped out of the closet and I screamed like a little girl and I'm not sure, but I think soiled myself" way, or was it more of an impending doom sort of way, like "Oh crap, my girlfriend is 2 weeks late dammit I knew I should have pulled out" way?

Adding that to my sig later when I stop feeling lazy.  Just so you know.

Scared as in "Wow, the mods actually installed a mod?  What's up with that?".

Damn I have to pick a line to cut out.  Stupid sig line limit (of course it's not stupid, just saying).

[link removed until approved by SMF]

Admittedly, I'm slightly lost on this... Is this a link to your mod code which had to be posted over at SMF (and thus await permission)?

Yeah, mods.simplemachines.org. They approve mods manually before they're made public. It was a link for downloading the modification.
