Users viewing forum on forumhome

[TAL]

For some reason, the number of users viewing a specific forum that used to be in brackets, on forumhome, has disappeared.

Anyone know why this may be?

[Steve Machol]

There is no option or setting in vB to do this.

[TAL]

Any idea why it's just suddenly disappeared?

On this very site (can't do a screenshot, am on a laptop):

vBulletin Announcements (58 Viewing)

To the original poster, it hasn't disappeared on this site, so I wonder if you need to revert the forumhome_forumbit templates.

My apologies, again I misunderstood the question. That uses this setting:

Admin CP -> vBulletin Options -> Forums Home Page Options -> Display Logged in Users?

Sorry Steve, hope you don't think I'm following you around checking your responses or something.....just the two threads I happened to look at....

[Steve Machol]

Yeah right.

I've tried using the default style, but still not showing.

Does this not just decide whether or not to show the active users under 'What's Going On'?

[Steve Machol]

Yes it does.

[TAL]

Anyone know how this may be solved?

[Steve Machol]

Did you follow the instructions given? It does work with the default vB.

[Mark.B]

Does this not just decide whether or not to show the active users under 'What's Going On'?

It does both:

Admin CP -> vBulletin Options -> Forums Home Page Options -> Display Logged in Users?

This setting controls both the Currently Active Users list as well as the X viewing text next to forum names on the index page.

That's on OLD POST from Jake Bunce.

If that's enabled, then it should work in a default style.

If not, next step is to try turning off all plugins.

[TAL]

It's set to 'Yes, Alphabetical listing to members only'

I've also disabled all plugins and it's still not showing.

Absolutely nothing was changed on the forum, and overnight it disappeared.

[Steve Machol]

Again this does work with the default vB code and no add-ons. What's the URL to your forums?

[Mark.B]

Just an obvious point, but do you actually have anyone viewing any of the forums?

It only shows if there is someone viewing. If nobody is viewing it will not say "0 viewing", it just doesn't show at all.
