Last Active in Profile Area

[halil16]

Hello there,
I want the last active date instead of the registration date in the profile fields on the topics.

Can you help me?

What do you mean by "Last active"? Last time visited? Last time posted?

[stevemaury]

If you want to show Last visit:

OPEN viewtopic.php

FIND:

Code: Select all

'joined'		=> $user->format_date($row['user_regdate']),

REPLACE WITH:

Code: Select all

'joined'		=> $user->format_date($row['user_lastvisit']),

OPEN styles/prosilver/viewtopic_body.html

FIND:

Code: Select all

<dd class="profile-joined"><strong>{L_JOINED}{L_COLON}</strong> {postrow.POSTER_JOINED}</dd>

REPLACE WITH:

Code: Select all

<dd class="profile-joined"><strong>{L_LAST_VISIT}{L_COLON}</strong> {postrow.POSTER_JOINED}</dd>

Clear the cache.

I'm sorry for not being able to explain it properly. I was trying to say:

The code you provided showed the last message date of the members. What I want to do is "L_LAST_ACTIVE".

Last active: 3 minutes ago
Last active: less than a minute ago

What is your definition of "last active"? Last post, last login, last page view?

[stevemaury]

phpBB defines "Last active" as either the session_time or the user_lastvisit in functions_display, about line 1601:

Code: Select all

$last_active = (!empty($data['session_time'])) ? $data['session_time'] : $data['user_lastvisit'];

If lastvisit does not work for you, post in Custom coding.

I'm talking about the last appearance on the member profile page. For example, the last time you appeared on your profile page.

That does not make sense - many (most?) users never visit their profile page and phpBB does not record when someone does so what you are asking is not possible without an extension.

This is my question too: 'Last login' seems plausible, 'Last page view' to be known would require login, 'Last post' seems less likely...

When I approve a new registration, very often the new member is never shown as having been 'active'.

Could also, of course, be due to their having not provided a valid email address, and so being unable to complete registration...

This seems to be a question unrelated to the original post from 2 years ago.

If someone is not shown as ever being active, they have never logged in. If you as admin approve the account, they decided not to come back (not unusual actually) or they never saw the email saying the account was activated (went to the junk folder). If they activate themselves, then they didn't get the email or didn't act on it.

Thank you for clarifying that!

Yes, because he hasn't logged in yet.

The most popular setting is the one that requires email verification by the user. But I remember someone here requesting both email and admin activecation.

I'm still miserable , but a lot has changed in 2 years.

On a board where new registrations have to be approved, and email activation of an account is also required, would activation be recorded in the profile 'Last active'?

Or, only forum logins after account setup is complete?
