I have to ask, why upgrade? What does 3.4 have that can make it worth it changing the who's online on the default 2.2 installation?

With the one that comes with OSCMAX you can already see the customers shopping cart.

I would think the same thing but their are in fact some new updates:

1. You can see who are true customers / bots / other
2. Auto refreshs
3. Can click on IP and find out who is that IP
4. Current status with lights also if items are in the cart will show that with a shopping cart
5. All in all not much but should be an easy update.

Thanks,

Adam

Just installed it and no problems over here, cart contents seem to be showing correctly.

The only weird thing is that I am showing up with IP 192.168.1.4 and not my public IP...?? I opened the store on another browser on another connection, and I am seeing that IP correctly, go figure. I add products to my cart and see them on "who's online". I remove them, and after a few seconds they are gone since I have set it to update every 30 sec.

All in all, it seems to be a nice and easy upgrade from stock OSCMAX, I am only missing the spanish language file.

Interesting, The 192.168 IP is usually an ip connection for your router. As far as the cart not showing in Adams and is showing in Mindtwist I think you will find that it is a php4 versus a php5 issue It is my bet that Mindtwist is php4 and Adam is php 5. A small change to the code in the whosonline.php will be neccessary. I will see if I can find it later.

Version PHP: 5.2.2 (Zend: 2.2.0)

I haven't looked at the code, but seeing myself with the private IP on who's online is quite strange... It makes it even more strange that my network setups are similar here and at the office, and I am actually seeing myself with my office connection with the public IP, how it should be, and with the default OSCMAX who's online module my IP at home was also the right one.

What did you use when you changed for register globals to switch to php5 with register globals off? This is since that contribution works for me with 4 but not 5 although everything else works. I saw someone in the osc forums that had the private IP issue and I am trying to track that down again to see if they applied a fix.

[MindTwist]

Can't help you much, since I didn't do anything. Just installed the contribution on the first post, and it worked without touching anything else. register_globals is ON on my host, php5 as stated. This store has always been running on this same host, I'd say it has been php5 from the first day.

Doh, so I guess that the support thread for this contribution is this one...

Who's Online Enhancement 1.4 - osCommerce Community Support Forums

60 pages of posts, which would make it kinda boring to find out why I am being shown as 192.168.1.2 instead of with my public IP

Ok thank you for that. Now it makes more sense because if I turn register globals on the cart works in that version of whos online but does not with reg glo off. So then it is most likely a session problem in the code. For Adam while I look at this some more make sure the configure.php files in both admin/includes and catalog/includes have store sessions set to mysql. If files are different that could cause the problem
