I wanted to output the visitors to every profile, on a tab in every users profile.
I also wanted to create 3 plugins in 3 days. Wich i did now!!
I have to admit that without the help of JoomlaJoe i would not have gotten this far.. (Thanks JJ!)
Alright... pre alpha example teaser visible on dutch site
www.djtrail.nl
in the 'Laatste bezoekers' Tab.
Features:
1) Now fully translatable in backend. (pffft)
2) Configurable options in backend.
3) Shows the last members who visited a profile and nicely lists avatar, username, visit date in a tab on the CB profiles.
It can also show a count of visitors. This means users can easily see whos interested in them. But it made this so clear that i suggest you DISABLE it. On my site users got scared to view the profiles of ppl they have a crush on.. coz that user will clearly see a spike in their visit total.. i have now disabled it..
On the bottom, out of sight in this screenie, it also shows the total amount of guests that visited the profile since installation of CB RC2. I suggest you add the date of the month you installed RC2 to the language string in the backend so it says: XX Guests have visited this profile SINCE November 2005.. or something..
I made 3 functional plugins, in 3 days wich was my goal!! (
Age
,
Gamehall
, LastViews)
All plugins are JP-karmaware.. i like to see that karma counter go up
Installation Instructions:
1) Install the plugin.
2) Publish it at plugin manager.
3) Check the tab manager for settings and save settings.
(important: input 0 in exclusionlist if you don't plan on using it or the tab wont show.)
4) Publish the tab.
Upgrade intsructions:
1) Either uninstall the previous, install the new one loosing your current backend settings.
OR
2) Overwrite the files by FTP manually and goto tab manager and -save- your settings again to add the new options.
Expected behaviour:
1) On a profile without hits since installation of RC2, no lastviews tab is shown.
2) On a profile with less than set listlimit hits since installation of RC2, lastviews tab with actual current hitcount will be shown.
3) CB users with avatar will have avatar shown, users without will have tnnophoto in your own language shown, if this fails, default english tnnophoto is shown.
4) Total count can be shown to admins and moderators. This moderator group can be selected.
5) Total count CAN be shown to profile owners if you set this option in backend. (not recommended)
6) Total count CAN be shown to all users, if you set this option in backend. (not recommended)
7) If you happily use this KarmaWare plugin and do not give me JP karma here, you get universal negative karma wich will result in the fact that your servers harddrive will be deleted by mysterious universal forces.
