I am wondering if I can add the rest of the pages on my site for the current page column. View the source for the function "what page" here.
I think I can add most pages in the case statement, but what about a page like listing.aspx?listing=mylisting, that has a querystring? I am guessing I will have to add a query, but i am not sure on the structure? I just need a nunge in the right direction.  |

To add new pages to active_users.asp, find the WhatPage function at the end of the file (line 340 in v4.0.18). This function has 2 arguments; fScript which is the name of the script (in your example, listing.aspx) abd fQ which is the entire querystring (in your example, listing=mylisting). To simply add a new page, that won't have a querystring, simply add a new case to the select case statement as follows:case "listing.aspx"
strPage=strPage&"Your title here" If you want to return a different title, depending on values passed through the querystring then you will need to use the analyzeQuery function and nest another select case within that case, like so:case "listing.aspx"
strQuery=fQuery
strListing=analyzeQuery(strQuery,"listing")
select case strListing
case "mylisting"
strPage=strPage&"My listing"
case "yourlisting"
strPage=strPage&"Your listing"
case else
strPage=strPage&"Generic title"
end select You can keep nesting select case statements in this way, if you have more than one variable beaing passed through the querystring. Each time you do so, though, make sure you reassign the fQuery value to the strQuery variable before passing it through analyzeQuery.
Finally, if you just want to show the title of the page, without providing a link, edit the if statement at the end of the WhatPage function, to include a check for the script's name:if lcase(instr(fscript, "admin_")) > 0 or fscript="listing.aspx" then |

Would that apply to pages outside the forum as well?
This is the case statement for active.asp:
case "active.asp"
strPage = strPage & fLang(strLangMOD_Ls3kAU_01160)
I am trying to add my home page outside the forum, index.asp, I tried this:
case "../index.asp"
strPage = strPage & "Home"
but it didn't work. What am I missing, I assume it has to do with fLang(strLangMOD_Ls3kAU_01160)?

To do that requires some pretty extensive modifications. Besides adding all the necessary active users functions in your non-forum pages, you'll also need to modify the database, to store directory names, and the code, to check the directory names.

yikes! nope not wanting to do that. So heres a question, which Marcel has already done. How can I as painlessly as possible, change the default.asp into my home page and create a new forum home page or default.asp.
How much relies on default.asp? I mean would it be as simple as renaming my files or is there extensive code changes as well?

I renamed default.asp to forum_home.asp, and if memory serves there were a few references in (the now named) forum_home.asp that needed to be changed, and I thin there were a few other references in topic.asp and forum.asp. Those would be the important ones I can remember. You may find others scattered here and there where you will have to decide on a case-by-case basis if you really want/need to change it.
Some quality time with your favorite editor's "Find and Replace" will make this a relatively painless endeavor, and shouldn't take more than a couple hours - if that long.  |

It's as easy as renaming default.asp. Of course, then you have to change all links in all other files to reflect this change, which can be slightly time consuming if you're not overly familiar with Snitz.

Thanks for the great advice guys! The program was extremely helpful MaD2ko0l, I was done in minutes and everything seems to be working. 
Back to adding pages to active_users.asp....
this part of the above code:
& fLang(strLangMOD_Ls3kAU_01160)
The number 01160 goes up with every page in the case statement. Do I need to add this to the pages I add in the case statement?

& fLang(strLangMOD_Ls3kAU_01160)
this bit of code is used with the internationalized version of snitz
if you look in the lang files/folder u will see somthign like this
'###### Ls3k - Inc_Activeusers.asp ######'
strLangMOD_Ls3kAU_00000 = "Active Users"
strLangMOD_Ls3kAU_00001 = "Board Statistics"
strLangMOD_Ls3kAU_00002 = "Expand Active Users"
the code that u specifyed is this
strLangMOD_Ls3kAU_01160 = "Active Topics"
basically when these flang code is specifyed it will display some text
so if you wanted to use a different language all the numbers will be the same but the text that it outputs will be a different language
this code can be written like this
case "active.asp"
strPage = strPage & "Active Topics"
i think that made sense |

So basically if I do not need a language besides english, I don't need to add this & fLang(strLangMOD_Ls3kAU_
I will give it a try! |

Ok, I tried to add code for my about.asp page, I added the code below in red right above the first case active.asp
It's not working...yet...is this possibly a cookie clearing issue?
select case lcase(trim(fScript))
case "about.asp"
strPage = strPage & "All about us!"
case "active.asp"
strPage = strPage & fLang(strLangMOD_Ls3kAU_01160)
