On the "Who's Online" - what do italics represent?

Post by Imaginos »

Looking at the "Who's Online", I see the legend for the colors, but what do the normal color italic names represent?

Are you talking about the bots? Like google and Bing? Or the actual usernames of member? (That are not colored)

EDIT: Oh, I see what you mean now. :lol: I am not sure what that is! BT+ members maybe?

Its actually a bug where you have selected "Hide my Online Status" under Board Preferences. I didn't work under certain versions of phpBB and the user would show up as italics for admins and sometimes it would show up there also.

You can test this by setting your status to Hide and your name will appear in italics. I have done it to show you mine its usually not in italics but it should be now.

As above. It shows (LOL) that the users are logged on as "Hidden."
You can't hide from staff (Mwahahaha), but aren't supposed to be seen by others.
Now, if you're seeing YOURSELF there, that's one thing. You should. You shouldn't be seeing anyone else there, though. If that's the case, let us know. We'll get the Bartertown Mechanic to turn a few bolts.
