Can you tell me how wpDiscuz determines if a user is showing online or offline?  We just realized it is sometimes showing users as offline when in fact they are actually online.  Thanks for any assistance in troubleshooting.

@astgh Sorry I missed this reply.  Here is how we reproduce the issue:

  1. Login to the website and view the post's comments.
  2. Leave a comment.
  3. Login to the website in a different browser with a different user.
  4. Leave a comment.

In the comments listing, both users should show "online" but they do not.  Before you troubleshoot too much, can you tell me how it determines if a user is online?  Is it based simply on their login status?

@aaron-mckeon,

It's based on the "Online status checking rate" option in the Dashboard > wpDiscuz > Settings > Online Users tab. So please check and let us know if the status is still online after the time expiration.
