FAQ
-
Creating A UserOnline Page
-
- Go to
WP-Admin -> Pages -> Add New
- Type any title you like in the post’s title area
- If you ARE using nice permalinks, after typing the title, WordPress will generate the permalink to the page. You will see an ‘Edit’ link just beside the permalink.
- Click ‘Edit’ and type in
useronline
in the text field and click ‘Save’. - Type
[page_useronline]
in the post’s content area - Click ‘Publish’
If you ARE NOT using nice permalinks, you need to go to
WP-Admin -> Settings -> UserOnline
and under ‘UserOnline URL’, you need to fill in the URL to the UserOnline Page you created above. - Go to

To Display Most Number Of Users Online
-
- Use:
<?php if (function_exists('get_most_users_online')): ?> <p>Most Users Ever Online Is <?php echo get_most_users_online(); ?> On <?php echo get_most_users_online_date(); ?></p> <?php endif; ?>
-
To Display Users Browsing Site
-
- Use:
<?php if (function_exists('get_users_browsing_site')): ?> <div id="useronline-browsing-site"><?php echo get_users_browsing_site(); ?></div> <?php endif; ?>

To Display Users Browsing A Page
-
- Use:
<?php if (function_exists('get_users_browsing_page')): ?> <div id="useronline-browsing-page"><?php echo get_users_browsing_page(); ?></div> <?php endif; ?>
-
Error on activation: “Parse error: syntax error, unexpected…”

Make sure your host is running PHP 5. The only foolproof way to do this is to add this line to wp-config.php (after the opening
<?php
tag):var_dump(PHP_VERSION);
