Chris Sajnog Posted September 14, 2019 Posted September 14, 2019 I have activated the Online Users page on the forum and I would like to hide all the Guest entries so that only members that are online are showing up. I see no options in the ACP, how can I do this?
tonyv Posted September 21, 2019 Posted September 21, 2019 I don't think that's possible, but it seems if you add the "Who's Online" block to a page (or pages) using the "Manage Blocks" feature it will show a condensed view with only members unless you click on "See Full List" to see the rest of your online users:

This will do, I created a new page, added the "Who's Online" block to it and in the menu instead of displaying the default "Online Users" page I used the newly created page. If you click on "See Full List" it will show up the page that I was having "trouble" with.
Joel R Posted September 25, 2019 Posted September 25, 2019 Oh I see. The full list will show guests and that is intentional.
PoC2 Posted September 26, 2019 Posted September 26, 2019 Mine's a members-only site, so all the "Guests" are irrelevant. Is there a way to completely remove "Guests" from showing up in the Who's Online block?

What I have in place right now will do as a temporary solution but if a way to hide them altogether appears I will opt for that.
tonyv Posted September 30, 2019 Posted September 30, 2019 I definitely want to see the guests on my site. I look at their IP's to see who they are, non-members and not-logged-in members alike. ;)
PoC2 Posted October 2, 2019 Posted October 2, 2019 So now have people who still want to see guests and people who don't. I don't mind seeing them as Admin, but it's useless information to members. Could this be made an option please?
opentype Posted October 2, 2019 Posted October 2, 2019 You would need to open a topic in the feedback forum if you want new/changed features. How are people accessing this page? You could potentially tweak the URL so guests are hidden on first view:https://invisioncommunity.com/online/?filter=filter_loggedin

You could potentially tweak the URL so guests are hidden on first view:https://invisioncommunity.com/online/?filter=filter_loggedin This will actually do, instead of showing the "Online Users" option in the menu or a page with a block I just created a custom link with that termination. Now when users click on Online Users in my menu they'll automatically see the page with the Already Logged in filter already applied. It's still a workaround but this will do just fine. Thank you for taking the time to reply and offer a solution. I appreciate it.
tonyv Posted October 2, 2019 Posted October 2, 2019 It might even be possible to hide the guests group from the online list by shutting off this toggle: No feature request required.
tonyv Posted October 2, 2019 Posted October 2, 2019 Also, your members can just filter the view. There are tons of guests on my board right now, but I just filtered the view, so that only members show.

That did hid certain things about the guests, for example the number of guests on the Online Users list but it still shows them on the full list. None the less in my case it's better to have that turned off. Thank you again for your reply.
