My Who's online block only displays the number of users (visitors and members) who are online but not their nicknames. Is it possible to add this info just like it is here? How? TNX!

If you don't want to use the Site Info block used here, then download it and find the code that you need and add it to your block.

I'll try and tell you how things will go on. As usual, many thanks! Smile

I downloaded your block and everything seems to work fine. I only have two questions for you, Raven:

1) In "membership" you can see many details. One of them is "waiting". What's the use of it? I've allowed the new users to subscribe without the admin's permission, by simply clicking on a link sent automatically by the system to the new user's e-mail. Just like it happens here. Does it have ant relation to this?

2) This is a strange thing indeed! The only language allowed for my site is english. I deactivated the languages block so as to keep the visitors from choosing other languages (italian included). The point is that when a visitor displays my home page, in the Site Info Block you may read: "Welcome, Ospite". "Ospite" is the italian word for "Guest"...
Can u guess why? Confused

MAny thanks!

#1 - Yes, that is for users who have registered but not confirmed.

#2 - No idea at all on that one Laughing

Your site info block.php requires a language, which is obviously english. I added the "define" lines included in the txt file. BUT... I don't know why the block displays an italian word for anonymous users (ospite) instead of the english one (guest). What files do u think I should verify?

The site info block uses the default language file for your site. If English is the default, then look in language/lang-english.php

I have many people waiting to become users. So I tried to register a false user to try if the system works and I found out that I cannot receive by e-mail the link to complete the registration.
WHY? sob sob! Crying or Very sad

Before installing the block everything was fine.
Do u know how I can activate those users?
TNX!

This block is for v6.9 but should work on previous releases. If I were you I would try reuploading the block. It is in use on hundreds of sites, including this one, so I know it works. If you are not receiving the email link, but the users are going into the user temp table, then it would seem that your email is the issue and not the block. Make sure that your site URL is correct in Preferences and that you gave a valid email address for your false user. As I said, this block is only an extension of the default block that ships with Nuke. They both operate the same for mailing. If the default one works, this one will too if installed properly.

Do u remember, Raven, when i told u about the problem caused by long nicks? Ok. I'd like the site info block font size to be smaller than other blocks. How can I do this?

I would start with finding this line

Code:

$content .= "<form action=\"account.html\" method=\"post\">";

and add a style= property.

I created a style named "siteinfobox". How can I add it to the line u mentioned?
