Topic: Add More Users?

Total number of registered users: 109
    Total number of topics: 18
    Total number of posts: 30

User information
    Newest registered user: komi
    Registered users online: 1
    Guests online: 0

Online:
    Locky


Is there a way to increase those numbers without having real users sign up? Is there some sort of way I can go in and make it way higher? For example, like this.

    Total number of registered users: 3,291
    Total number of topics: 592
    Total number of posts: 817

User information
    Newest registered user: komi
    Registered users online: 291
    Guests online: 1,828

of course i just randomly typed in those #'s but you get the idea, and I would obviously have to take off "Online now" . can this be done?

Re: Add More Users?

Why would you want to do that?
You could just replace the number of users/topics/etc. in the footer.php file by a static number.

Re: Add More Users?

But that would never increase. Would look kind of funny. I just want to do it, is it possible can you help me please?

Re: Add More Users?

Open index.php, find:

<dd><?php echo $lang_index['No of users'].': <strong>'. $stats['total_users'] ?></strong></dd>
                <dd><?php echo $lang_index['No of topics'].': <strong>'.$stats['total_topics'] ?></strong></dd>
                <dd><?php echo $lang_index['No of posts'].': <strong>'.$stats['total_posts'] ?></strong></dd>

You can edit that, e.g.

$totusers = $stats['total_users'] + 1000;
<dd><?php echo $lang_index['No of users'].': <strong>'. $totusers'] ?></strong></dd>

I am pretty sure you can also add the 1000 right inside the echo command, but I am not sure about the syntax. Just try:

<dd><?php echo $lang_index['No of users'].': <strong>'. $stats['total_users'] + 1000 ?></strong></dd>

But isn't that all too obvious?

I tried, this one will work:

Re: Add More Users?

where exactly did you put that? or did you change the wording?

Re: Add More Users?

hmm I tried both ways you suggested but neither seem to work....

Re: Add More Users?

could you post your index.php, please?

Re: Add More Users?

I don't see the point of doing this as when go to the users list, you will always see the real number of users

11

Re: Add More Users?

It's not hard to remove the link and disable the "User list".

12

Re: Add More Users?

Isn't it kinda lame to fake the amount of users you have though? I can't see any point other than trying to trick people into thinking a site is more popular than it actually is.

13

Re: Add More Users?

That is what I first thought, but the posts number will easily show there is something wrong, how can a board have 3000 users and only 2 posts hmm
I really do not see any advantage in it.
And if it is to appear in the top of Punres listing, it is stupid has it does not rely on this part of the forum

    echo "\t\t\t\t".'<dd>'. $lang_index['Users online'].': <strong>'.$num_users.'</strong></dd>'."\n\t\t\t\t".'<dd>'.$lang_index['Guests online'].': <strong>'.$num_guests.'</strong></dd>'."\n\t\t\t".'</dl>'."\n";

?>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>
<?php

$footer_style = 'index';
require PUN_ROOT.'footer.php';

Then, find this:

$totusers = $stats['total_users'] + 1000;
                $tottopics = $stats['total_topics'] + 1000;
                $totposts = $stats['total_posts'] + 1000;

and edit the numbers.
Just FYI though: This won't work to get you higher in the punres rating (this is not what the rating is for, anyways)

Re: Add More Users?

That didn't work. It makes the entire page blank.

Re: Add More Users?

Ok then I don't know how to do it. It worked fine with my forum...

Re: Add More Users?

i copied exactly your code and replaced my own. when i loaded the forum the entire screen was blank.

Re: Add More Users?

I don't know, try this:

<?php
$totusers = $stats['total_users'] + 1000;
                $tottopics = $stats['total_topics'] + 1000;
                $totposts = $stats['total_posts'] + 1000;
?>

Re: Add More Users?

and you want me to place that above

<dd><?php echo $lang_index['No of users'].': <strong>'. $stats['total_users'] ?></strong></dd>
                <dd><?php echo $lang_index['No of topics'].': <strong>'.$stats['total_topics'] ?></strong></dd>
                <dd><?php echo $lang_index['No of posts'].': <strong>'.$stats['total_posts'] ?></strong></dd>

that? or replace that?

Re: Add More Users?

just add the <?php before and the ?> after

$totusers = $stats['total_users'] + 1000;
                $tottopics = $stats['total_topics'] + 1000;
                $totposts = $stats['total_posts'] + 1000;

Re: Add More Users?

hmm nope that didn't work either. are you testing these? the page loads but the users stay the same.

Re: Add More Users?

Re: Add More Users?

doubtful, doesnt look like anyone really wants this to happen from previous posts on this thread.

Re: Add More Users?

why do you want it anyways?
just because of punres?
