chilihead Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 Recently Browsing should be Currently Browsing. If they leave the page their online location changes and does not show in this box. This wording makes it sound like it logs recent browsers, as in, it would stay listed 30 minutes (or set time) after they were last active on that page (which could be a cool feature actually). Currently means they are still on that page and have not clicked anywhere else on the site yet, even if they are inactive (in which case it would time out). But recently suggests it logs recent visits.
AutoItScript Posted August 14, 2015 Posted August 14, 2015 The widget is pointless as it stands. I've removed it on my board as it's just a waste of resources to show your own name
KevinGrand Posted November 25, 2015 Posted November 25, 2015 Are there any plugins that implement currently browsing functionality? Coming from vB, fourms look so dead without it.

But you didn't leave the forum, the topic is in the forum. You should still be listed as being in that forum. Like in 3.4.

Hope they fix the forum browsing soon. Reading a topic should not remove you from the forum you are reading it in.
