Number of users? - Sun. Oct 28, '01 11:11 PM

G' day. I' m running your latest release on PWS. I have noticed that each morning I come in and load up the forums via my browser - the number of users increments. But it never decreases. Is there code somewhere that times out the user and takes 1 off the user count?

Have you thought about an auto-login feature for the board. If the person has opted to save their login details in your cookie - could the board look for that cookie and log them in straight away?

Thank you in advance.

Hi,

be sure to have your " application enabled" correctly, otherwise the global.asa code just won' t work (which clean up the active user count).

Auto-login is nice, but one click login is not that bad either. I will think about this and if it is good, I will put autologin to work in the SQL release.

Thanks for your advice ^ ^

Thanks for the prompt reply. I was sitting there last night thinking I had asked a stupid question and that the count was a total user count not a current user count.

I' m using PWS and there is no ' application' setting within. If I find a workaround I will let you know.

Thanks for the prompt reply.

Hi,

I heard there is a setting in pws that allows you to enable executeable to run in a folder (but is different from IIS). If you know how to do it, then just enable executable permission I mentioned and it will work.

Thanks
