What's New in Version 1.0.1:
Script otmization to avoid exploit with multiple tabs to increase the time online.

New version tomorrow in the morning. 

Got it and tested it for you dude. The plugin's basic function still works, and it counts time up as we'd want it to do, however opening multiple tabs and then clicking on something in each of them after 5/10 minutes no longer works, in some cases I saw that the time only went up by a single second, which is consistent with how long it took for me to change tabs. So it literally didn't count them at 5/10 minutes of activity, and actually counted the second it took to change the tab therefore not completely invalidating it. 
This was a very perfect implementation of the idea. I do not see any problems whatsoever with what you sent me, man. And to lack a better word, it seems that this can no longer be exploited in the same way anymore. Excellent work man, and I deeply appreciate you spending time to patch that problem.

PM sent. Tks.

Sure, I'm ready when you are.

Are you available to test a new version with some adjustments? It changes the way it works in more or less the way you say above. It will change some definitions so you can't use the 1.0.0 version if it's not ok, so you will have to use it on a test install or something.
Let me know if it's ok then I'll PM you tomorrow with a new version.

I totally agree with the light hearted humour there.
Would having a "Last updated" time stamp in there be useful at all? My thinking on this is that the last updated time stamp would be the last time the number of seconds was updated; if the number of seconds exceeds the time stamp (after putting in a margin of error of say 10 seconds or something) then it won't record. That way when a first ten minutes is added on with the time stamp, the next ten minutes can't be possible because the time stamp says it was last updated a second ago. Or is that not possible?

Honestly, there are people that seems to not have anything else to do than waste their time with stuff like that.
Well, the plugin really has a 15 min. of inactivity. If there's an inactivity time bigger than this it isn't recorded. This plugin uses the newest session time for the user; everytime the user clicks around, this time is updated and if the time is lesser than 15, it is recorded, so it's not a bug or a exploit. Since I can't check via PHP if you have 1 or 100000000000000 open tabs, I don't see much I can do here, unless lower this period of 15 minutes.
Usually, people do this because of the sidebar widget. People have a NEED to appear in first place. Just remove the sidebar widtget and you will let your users really sad and the competition is over.

Hm, I'll look into that. Yeah, do it, shouldn't hurt.

I encountered this in another plugin and decided to position the data in the left sidebar instead? What are your thoughts on that alternative? Ideally IPS would make that area responsive friendly for more data. (It's obviously a popular spot to add basic info to a users profile). But without them doing that, I'm not sure I can get around it myself and a left block appears to be the simplest option right now.

I already replied to exact dame text in the other topic: 
No need to repeat it here.

Well, this is not a bug. You simply have too much plugins that add info there. 
Anyway, you can disable this on my plugin. There's a setting for this.
To IPS: 
 

Ack! I didn't see that you were the developer of both apps. My absolute apologies, dude. 

@Mike John, please refer to: 
 

I've come across a strange bug that IPS thinks is on the developers of these modifications (Hence why this a copy/paste) post across all the affected plugins that I noticed this on. At certain sizes of the screen (When you have a few of these plugins active on) it kind of bugs the profile up. 
At this screen size, it's fine:

However when I get it between the state of desktop/tablet mode and mobile mode it's not fine:

I have spoken to IPS about this because I believed it was a problem only showing up because it's not something the software is expecting (An out of the box set up), and after some back and forth the reply I got was this:

Just purchased, thanks for this @Adriano Faria, and congratulations on your new release. So far it doesn't seem to have the same problems as last time. But if I find any I will let you know.  

What's New in Version 1.0.15.1:
Fix - This version restores:
Option to reorder tabs Option to disable features Compatibility:
Compatible with Member Map and with any other resource that adds a tab via hook in the Club. Note:
Tabs added via hook, like Member Map, won't appear in the Manage Features to be reordered. Only tabs created via club will appear in there. Tks to @Martin A.

Hey that's fine with me man, I completely understand. After all there are other neat features of your plugin that are very good, such as a homepage setting, so it's not the end of the world. I appreciate you're doing your best though, and I understand that it's no ones fault in particular.

It is disabled until I manage to workaround. In the meantime, it's really disabled but in the end, if I can't make it, I will post that it is incompatible with Member Map due to the way I extend a method; that's not Martin's fault.
I understand that now everybody will say that bought this because of this or that, but that' how it is now.

What's New in Version 1.0.15:
New:
Unapproved Clubs: new setting to make pending clubs more prominent in Club Directory. It will display a new block. Feature Disabled:
The option to disable a feature and reorder tabs are temporaraly disabled due to a conflict with the new Member Map tab. It may come back in a further version.  
*** TAB REORDER AND FEATURE DISABLE ARE NOW DISABLE DUE TO AN INCOMPATIBILITY WITH ANOTHER RESOURCE. IT MAY COME BACK AS SOON AS I MANAGE TO FIX THE INCOMPATIBILITY ***

I'm very interested in any ADVANCED POINTS application in the IPS marketplace! But all available solutions here appear as they don't get beyond the initial stages.
This was said already by end of 2015. So is there a chance of a more or less rapid further development?
I wouldn't mind paying a higher price! $$$
I think an ADVANCED POINTS app should be somehow bound to
CORE / FORUMS COMMERCE app
-> as a solid POINTS PAYMENT GATEWAY
-> as POINTS showing everywhere as a valid virtual currency (in addition to USD/EUR as a multicurrency setting)
-> Products can only be purchased by points, if point price is filled in. If both currency prices are filled in the customer can choose, if only real world currency is filled in customers must purchase with real bucks DOWNLOADS app
-> POINTS should be shown in addition to USD/EUR in blocks / widgets / slider ...
-> Products can only be purchased by points, if point price is filled in + (see above like in commerce)
-> points system must be suited for site commission/referrals/affiliates AWARDS app (currently: iAwards)
-> POINTS should be triggered if an award is received or taken away again, depending on the worthyness of the award (custom config per award) AUTOMATION RULES app (currently: automation rules)
-> there are lots more situations and maybe it makes sense to create some ECA (events/conditions/actions) as @Kevin Carwile describes his API for other developers
-> maximum flexibility And here is my (new) list:
POSITIVE POINTS EVENTS:
Registration of a member is complete (once per unique Email address / member name)
-> this is a direct welcome bonus and introduces the points system to new members Daily Login (once a day): I try to force my members to login daily and award them therefore
-> if the member opts in for bulk mail he should get an extra minor daily bonus (email marketing!) OR he will only get the daily login bonus if he opted in for bulk emails.
-> if the member has a completed profile he should get an extra minor daily bonus (personalization) Topic/posts creations (once for author): topic author receives major points, post authors that respond in topic receive less points + thank you points for topic author for each post in topic by others, long texts (minimum chars) will be extra awarded, also texts with high reputation (f.e. if a post receives XX likes, then... extra points)
-> it should work the same way for blogs Free downloads / paid downloads creations: free gets XX points, paid DLs XXX points, if DL is downloaded XXX times then extra X points, or if purchased more than X times XX points Positive reactions (reputation): each reaction should trigger points for the receiver as well as the reaction giver in dependance of a unique reaction. Points values for different reactions differ (f.e. like = 10, thanks = 5, confused = 0, sad = -1)! The idea is to engage all members to take more part in using reactions, while others will be triggered by this behavior! Review creations: f.e. the more stars rating a reviewer will give, the more points he will get, extra points if other users find the review useful Gallery album creations: bonus for massive photo uploads (but if deleted again, then double minus points!) Purchasing memberships: give points for regular and VIP memberships and renewals (according to the price level) Special member group promotions: if members are promoted, they will get an extra point credit Leaderboard daily winner: different points for 1st, 2nd, 3rd place iAward is received: depending what category and the worthiness, points should be given, awards are a very high reputation sign, hence they should be awarded with points, too! By the way, iAwards can also be triggered with "Automation Rules" ECAs NEGATIVE / NO POINTS EVENTS:
If receiving/giving negative reactions: take away points from both negative reaction receiver as well as the negative reaction giver -> this way a negative reaction will become "expensive" and only used if worth the event! receiving a moderation warning: in dependance to the severity reduction for inactive behavior: each month, reduce points by XX or XX% account banned: user looses all points (deactivation) manual reduction: admins/mods are allowed to take away points as a special warning mechanism!
-> Or admins/mods can suspend members from "daily points" OR "ALL points" temporarily Only problem: If (additional) points are purchased with real world money, there should be a setting that a member can't loose the purchased points (=drop below his investment) except for spending them in exchange for products like memberships and downloads! 
POINTS MULTIPLICATORS:
If user is in VIP group XX then multiplicate points values with f.e. 1.2 (=20% bonus) If user is in MOD group YY then .... f.e. 0.8 (=-20% as they will naturally get more likes for bureaucracy instead of content production) Points award for very high reputation: give 0.1 extra bonus (f.e. 1000 rep and up) SPECIAL POINTS OPTIONS:
Received points must be confirmed daily or weekly or monthly
-> this way, users will only get their points finally, if they take part in the community regularily
-> timeframe maybe dependant on member group Comeback users after time x should be awarded, if they click a special link!
-> so we can create bulk emails to attract inactive members to come back and engage again Banned members can't earn points (also during times if banned temporarily) Daily limit: limit the maximum points a member can receive daily! Tipping: Options to transfer points to other members as a thank you mechanism: if in group XX, can transfer daily X points max, if in VIP group YY, daily max is YYY points I have 1000+ ideas but these ones should be the essential ones for the start  
If all the requests are too heavy to be hardcoded at once, there might be a chance to realize them with Automation Rules ECAs? I would accept this solution, too!
I don't need banks, no trades, I want to lift up the members engagement, sell points for real money and generate income (downloads/memberships products) by exchange!
This is the requested "voice"  
Thank you!

Just to cover the list... I got this from ibEconomy 2.0.8, which I offered and gave to @-RAW- when he was doing iCredits for 4.x sometime back, of course you don't have to implement a single one, but it's a neat list if your scratching for ideas at any point, or if anyone agrees to any of them:
Hope that helps.
