- I noticed that the information about the last visit displayed on the index page gets updated on every reload of the index page. I think it should display the time when I finished my last visit.
- When a login attempt to the Admin Control Panel fails a corresping log entry in the Action log viewer is created. I think this log entry should contain the used login details. And I think that the message "User is no longer in system" is a bit confusing if the message was caused by an anon user.

Intentional, there is no way to tell what was your "last" visit. I suppose code can be hacked to use some sort of pre-set time differential, Ex 2-3 hours.

I've added tracking of entered login/password. The other change would be tricky as it would require a special hack specifically for failed logins.

I think that my session will be extended on every action I take in the forum? In this case you could say that my last vistit was when my session expired and the forum had to re-login me.
|
The shown time is of "last visit" not last login. And login in FUDforum can last for month or even years given long term cookie age settings.

Wouldn't it be enough to check whether the user id is 0? In this case you can show "Unknown user" or something like that. According to my observations former members have got an id that is not 0.
|
There is also account removal to consider.

Well, I thought the procedure could be like this:
- The user visits the user.
- The forum checks the session of the forum.
- User is still in the same session as he was on the request before and no cookie has to be used: In this case the "last visit" will not be updated.
- The forum has to create a new session for the user or the forum has to use the cookie: In this case the "last visit" is either the time of the end of the last session or (if this can't be determined) the time of the last action of the user.

I did consider account removal. When the admin deletes an user this doesn't affect the action list. I still think that checking the user_id field in the fud26_action_log table is the easiest way.

The forum creates a new session for the user only upon login, which once again means you are changing last visit into last login (something already tracked via another field in the users table).
As far as the action_log user_id field, that would only be populated for logged-in users already having an id field.

The login of the deleted user is in the "action" the login of the admin it shown to indicate who performed the account deletion.

The question in this case what to show? I suppose on topic view that's easy, just show messages in that forum, but what about the forum's front page or the topic list view.

All the messages on the forum? Do you realize how impractical (slow, large), not to mention useless that RSS feed would be.

I don't see a compelling reason for syndicating the forum's user list.

As far as I know it is possible to specify the next and the previous page for a page in the html header.
I think this could be used for topic view or topic listing (and maybe also other pages), the advantage of this should be that you can use Opera's mouse gestures for going to next/previous page.

Do you know of other browsers support it? It seems silly to add a feature for a browser with miniscule market share while at the same time making everyone download extra text they don't really need.

No, I don't know any other browser that support. And I have to agree with you, if Opera is the only browser supporting it, it's better keep it as it is.
