Hide Bots in phpBB 3

Submitted by CyberAlien, Jun 2007.
This tutorial explains how to hide bots from list of online users in phpBB 3.



Open includes/functions.php, find this:
Code:
  1. if (($row[‘session_viewonline’]) || $auth->acl_get(‘u_viewonline’)) 
and replace with this:
Code:
  1. if (($row[‘session_viewonline’] || $auth->acl_get(‘u_viewonline’)) && $row[‘user_type’] <> USER_IGNORE) 

After this change only administrators will use bots in list of online users, other users won’t see them.
