Does what it says on the tin. Best feature is that it gets rid of banned members who insist on constantly logging in and showing up in the members online box. Bye bye!
Works as promised, thank you.
a must have .. great add on for any community!
Nice add-on. But I wish we can see visitor counts next to "Total:"
Works great, and as intended. Steady stream of improvements is helpful.
Nice add-on, would like it to show guest activity.
Great for quickly seeing the activity level on the forum and which users have been coming to the site.
