Is it possible to have the active users page know when someone is on a page outside of the forum? If so, what would I need to add to the other pages in my site?

Been a while since I did it but here's a basic, rough idea of what you need to do:

- First, you'll need to make sure the MEMBER_ID is assigned to a variable called MemberID on your non-forum pages (just like we do on the forum pages).

- Next you'll need to include the AU functions from inc_func_common.asp - you can just include that file, if you want. Note that, if you're including the function, you'll need to edit some of the variable names to match what you already have in your non-forum pages. If you're including the file then you'll need to include config.asp as well or somehow duplicate the variables and constants the function use and you'll need to set your cookies to website.

- Somewhere at the start of every non-forum page, you'll then need to call the ActiveUserTracker() sub, the sooner, the better.

- If you allow your members to log in and/our out though your non-forum pages then you'll need to call the AUHandleLoging() sub when processing the log in/out.

- Finally, you'll need to edit the whichpage() function in active_users.asp to diplay the titles of our non-forum pages. Note that the AU mod doesn't include support for directories so, if any of your non-forum files have the same name as any of your forum files, there's going to be a conflict.

On Sports Fish Australia I have it working with all the pages outside of the forum as I have wrapped the whole site with a logon form for the forum and had to cut down inc_header.asp (called: inc_login_uni_header.asp), included config.asp, inc_functions.asp and inc_sha256.asp to make it work, but it shows up in Active Users where each user is.

I have also created the following page called inc_login_uni_header.asp to go with it:

I can not remember the order, but can find it out if you need.
