i just had to share this, you can now see how many people are browsing a forum
it says just above the thread "Users browsing this forum now: n"
or has this been here for age and i've only just noticed it?
good work laffen

actually it doesn't appear when you click on a forum name to view the topics in that forum, only when viewing a post in that forum

sorry Vlamm, when i edited it the title changed to new, but then i edited it again, glad it's new
no not users online, users browsing this forum
(oh i see what you mean, i think it's users browsing this section as it's the same no. of people in each thread, however it could be this thread 
)

That is great. Laffen have done lots of stuffs the last days so lets great him.
The only thing that would make this users thing bether, would be a who is online button that shows us who is online when we click on it. That would have been werry useful when i need to know if he/she is online or not. Sometimes when i have to pm something to the moderators i would like to chek who is online, so i can pm one that is online.
Hope you dont think i am asking to much.

It's a great feture. Not very usefull maybe but still

@Masseur
I dont think it would be any problem to make it so we can chose if we want to be visible or not when we browsing the forum. So why shouldn't there be a "who is online" for privacy reasons?
Posted by masseur
you are asking the wrong person, and I have no real opinion on this either way, just passing on info from another mod in another thread. Sorry
Posted by Vlammetje
well if everybody had a tick box in their porfile where they could select to remain hidden that would solve the privacy issue. Now it says 'online' next to your post in big bold letters
(which btw works fine for me) and that is not so very private either
Posted by masseur
on the other hand if people want to browse Esato discreetly they can set their preferences to not store their username in a cookie and logout after making each post.
I do this sometimes if I am busy doing other stuff but just keeping one eye out on Esato
edit: but a preferences or profile option would make it easier and is offered by a couple of other forums I view occassionaly
