Odd user count

Post by Ping »

Alright, not sure if this topic should go here, but somebody move this topic if it's in the wrong place. I've noticed that every time I log on to Gametoast, the thing at the bottom of the page that says "Current users online" counts me as two users instead of one. I don't know if it's my computer or not, but somebody please tell me if this is fixable.

That will always happen, any phpBB forum with default settings.

The "Currently Online users" is for any user in the past 5 minutes. Once you've visited the site it counts you as a guest, then once you login it counts you as you.

if you refresh the page 5 minutes after you had logged on, only you would be shown active and your guest activity wouldn't.

Actually, I have it set so that every time I visit, I get logged on automatically.
