This is weird. I just opened two browser windows with me 'online' in the chat room and then opened another browser to see if I'm in the table through phpmyadmin and it's empty :

Okay, I finaly got it. We were all close, but this is what I am using and it does work on phpnuke 7.9.

Code:

<?PHP
if ( !defined('BLOCK_FILE') ) {
Header('Location: ../index.php');
die();
}

global $db, $prefix;
$query2 = 'SELECT COUNT(username) FROM '.$prefix.'_live_online WHERE timestamp>\''.(time() - 60).'\' ORDER BY username ASC';
$result2 = $db->sql_query($query2);
list($chat_user_count) = $db->sql_fetchrow($result2);
$content ="<center>Amount Users In Chat: ";
$content .=$chat_user_count;
$content .="</center>";
?>

I created a block to display who is in chat, how many are in chat and provide a link to your chat. You can copy the code below and create your block or download it from http://www.ravenuke.com/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=getit&lid=11

If anyone has any tweeks or addons to make to this block, please let me know and I will add them to it.

Enjoy.

Thanks for that.
You may want to review your meta tags etc Ravennuke is a trademark and you are not using it so it could have the potential to adveresly affect your SERP's.

Thats me and my fast typing skills with 2 fingers... did not intend on haveing 2 "n"'s in the site address. Embarassed

Has been fixed to reflect Rave Nuke rather than Raven Nuke. Thanks.

I edited the code in my earlier post to add a timestamp to the users in chat. It was keeping them in the block as long as they were still browsing the site. Now they are removed after they leave the chat page.

I added " WHERE timestamp>\''.(time() - 60).'\' "

You can edit your code if you already have this by changing at or around line 44. You can change the 60 to a different number if desired.

Also, the " LIMIT 0,50 " can be changed to only show however many chatters you would like. For instance, 0,3 will only show the first 3 chatters.

Was:

Code:

$user_display = 'SELECT username FROM '.$prefix.'_live_online ORDER BY username ASC LIMIT 0,50';

Change:

Code:

$user_display = 'SELECT username FROM '.$prefix.'_live_online WHERE timestamp>\''.(time() - 60).'\' ORDER BY username ASC LIMIT 0,50';

Good luck.
