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.

Hi Aaron McKeon,
Please let us know how we can represent the issue on our test website.

@astgh Sorry I missed this reply. Here is how we reproduce the issue:
- Login to the website and view the post's comments.
- Leave a comment.
- Login to the website in a different browser with a different user.
- 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?

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.Â
