Why WhosOnline 1.3 and WhsOnline Pro not working on Vanilla version 2.1.1?

Why WhosOnline 1.3 and WhosOnline Pro not working on Vanilla version 2.1.1?
The addons do not show on forum front and shows blank page when setting is clicked on at dashboard.
When will the addon be fixed?

You can use OnlineNow:

Does OnlineNow show visitors? I think it shows only online members without showing visitors and that's the reason I prefer to use WhosOnline Pro.

the pro version is for vanillaforums.com hosted forums ...

Prosper

but i paid for the pro version and after upgrading to vanilla version 2.1.1 it stopped working.

That is unfortunate, does it not specify what version of Vanilla it works on ? If it is a paid add on then they should offer support for it maybe?

Gary Mardell sold it as a premium plugin and he is no longer posting on the forum. Nor does he have the obligation to upgrade it.

Oh FFS !!

A css issue does not constitute a "does not work." Maybe a " Looks strange" but works...

I can't help you unless you post a link to the forum and make the Plugin public so it can be seen by guests.

You need to go in the dashboard and make the OnlineNow plugin be seen by Guests so I can see what is happening. Or make a test account for me and give me the login info so I can see ....

I have messaged you !

Ok, Please change to this in the onlinenow plugin css file.

#OnlineNow .PhotoWrap {
z-index: 99999;
padding: 0!important;
}

#OnlineNow.Box ul.PanelInfo li {
padding: 0;
background: none transparent;
border: 0!important;
}

This part is for the popup with the user name and time I changed the position to -80 for the top see if that helps, adjust the values as you see necessary. Changed it to -80 I think is better

#OnlineNow.Box ul.PanelInfo li span.Time {
font-size: 9px;
position: relative;
top: -80px;
left: -27px;
visibility: hidden;
background: #fff;
padding: 6px 8px;
border: 1px solid #999;
border-radius: 0;
z-index: 99999;
width: auto;
min-width: 100px;
text-align: center;
}

Make sure you delete the account you made for me or change the password after I am done ...

Irfanalam123

I have made the changes according to you. It is working well But I think, still it needed some improvement. please check again with the same credentials...

I can concur that despite being "Approved", WhosOnline does not work with Vanilla 2.1.8. For me, there are no errors, just the sidebar never appears showing who is online.

I realize that an option is using OnlineNow, but our community doesn't use avatars much, I'd prefer the simple functionality that's in WhosOnline.
