Goosestaf 0 Report post Posted November 12, 2004 Really? its that easy? Im guessing i have to chnage the extension to .php yes? Below is the read me for the file, just incase anything else needs to eb done because that seems to easy /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// WakCounter + UserOnline Script Version 1.1 Script by Katie http://luved.org/ This script is linkware and can be used or modified as long as all credit is left attached to this file and a link is placed on your website to http://luved.org/ You are forbidden to sell or distribute this script without permission by it's creator and if a bug is found, report to scripts@luved.org /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Version 1.1 Updates: 03-05-04 -> Added the ability to set a starting counter number /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Description: This script displays the number of users online, the highest number of user online that day and a counter that records unique hits by IP address. You can choose to display any of these information on your site or none at all if you wish to keep your counter invisible. Files in this zip: counter.php -> example page for displaying code counter/useronline.php -> useronline script counter/useronline.txt -> records users online counter/stats.txt -> records the stats for counter Installation: Step 1: Upload all the files. Make sure you leave useronline.php useronline.txt and stats.txt in the counter/ folder. Place counter.php in your root directory. Step 2: CHMOD useronline.txt and stats.txt to 777 in your FTP program. Step 3: To add the counter to your webpage -> Place the following code at the VERY begining of your page (It must be placed at the very first line). This means that if you want your counter to be displayed on index.php you place this line at the beginning of index.php: <?php include_once('counter/useronlinecounter.php');?> The above code assumes you have left useronline.php, useronline.txt and stats.txt in the counter/ folder You place the following between the <BODY> tags of your webpage. This line displays the number of users online <!-- Display user online--> <?php visitor('online')?> online. <!-- End User online--> The following displays the highest number of users active that day <!-- Most active user online--> Most Active At One Time Today: <?php visitor('mostactivetoday')?> <!-- End most active user online--> The following displays the counter <!-- Counter since date --> <?php visitor('total')?> hits since <?php visitor('sincedate')?> <!-- End counter since date --> Final step! Please remember to save the your file with a .PHP extension If you don't do this, your script will not work. Additional Note: Set starting count: ------------------------ If you want your counter to start from a certain number, in your browser go to counter.php?starthits=(hit number) For example if I wanted my counter to start at 100, I would go to http://myDomain.com/counter.php?starthits=100 in my browser. You should see a message confirming that the counter has been set to start. NOTE: You can only set the starting number ONCE, if you want to change this more than once, you'll need to reupload a blank stats.txt file. Change date format: ------------------------ If you want to change the date format displayed for 'hits since "this date"' Open useronlinecounter.php in a text editor Go to this line: $dtFormat = "d-M-Y"; Change what is in between the double quotes " " to your preferered date format. Use this manual http://php.net/manual/en/function.date.php to help you change it to a date format that you want. /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// // Find a bug?

Spectre 0 Report post Posted November 17, 2004 You have to give the files an extension that has been set to be passed along to the PHP engine. This is done within the Apache configuration file (httpd.conf), and can be done within cPanel under 'Apache Handlers'. I like to associate my .html files with PHP, so that I can give all pages a .html extension. But that's just me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
