Users online (lil coding help)

[cepsi]

hi, im trying to get a small block that simply shows total users online, without showing any names or guest/user divisions so it would look something like;

              Total Users Online: 223

i have tried a php block with the following code but it brings up more than i need.

Code Select Expand

ssi_whosOnline();

and also tried getting it from an old post on here Users Online but no joy.

The reason being is that i am running out of space on my side panel and have made the stats box collapsable, but would like to show users online at the top on its own. Im no good with php, or much else really

ty for any guidance

echo $who['total_users'];

You might try something like this ...

Code Select Expand

$who = ssi_whosOnline('return');
echo 'Total Users Online: ', $who['total_users'];

ZarPrime filled it out. But it's really just knowing how to read it the code. Experience. Anybody could do it.

You're too modest Ms. JPD.  You're brilliant, and you know it.  So does everybody else.
