members online

[Jelly Belly™]

just upgraded from IPB 3. to IPB 4

does anybody know what the cut off time is for members showing online and if it can be edited ?

in 3 you could set the session period but i don't seem to be able to find the setting in 4

there is a block "Who's Online"

Click on "Manage blocks" and add it to wherever you want

thanks, i know about that

but in ip3 you used to be able to set the session time for users who hadn't logged out

[TAMAN]

it doesn't exist anymore. 

Check this plugin maybe!

I'm not sure, I think there's still a setting to determine the length it expires or there's a way to do it by adding a line of code to your config file.

I'll have a look into this and get back to you.

I don't think this is configurable anymore, as it's now based on PHP session times, which they recommend against modifying.

I'm sorry, I can't find any settings in the ACP and I just checked my config file nothing stands out.

My user sessions are cut off after 30 minutes, so if someone comes on for a minute they show for 30 but this may be related to the fact I had it this way before - despite swearing I has asked someone about it when upgrading to 4.1

I wished I could help (though I find anything out at a later date I will let you know).
