hello, i don't know if anyone knows of a plugin that does this already or if they fill the challenge of making one but i am looking for a plugin that can tell you how many people have been on your server in one day, week, month etc because i am not on my server 24/7 and it would be really interesting to see how many people have been on my server on a certain date, week, month.. this would also help with advertising to see when i advertise my server how much a of a difference it actually makes over the week.. =)
I do believe essentials does this. Could be wrong, I might be able to cook something up if it doesn't. Let me know if it does! If it doesn't I'm on it!
PHP, MySQL database, cron every hour, saving data (online/max, online/offline, motd) to database, generating stats in php or javascript. Enjoy
I didn't think it would be that hard Still I might find a more simple way. Wait, wouldn't sending it to a players.yml file on first time player join event? That should work with minimal effort right? EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.
how many players but: (my idea with mysql) hour 1: 1/20 hour 2: 6/20 hour 3: 9/20 hour 4: 4/20 or: (your idea) day 1: nick1, nick2, nick3, nick7, nick5, nick92 day 2: nick1, nick5, nick92, nick2
nah don't think essentials does this or at least i haven't seen a command/permission for it on the wiki.. The have /who but that only shows you who's online there and then it doesn't actually give you detailed info about how many people have been online in that day.. but you could do so much to a plugin like this for example have detailed info about who has been online, what time, how many times they logged on that day, what IP they logged on from etc
Hee hee I can do your idea without SQL. Just log it to a file, then get the total per hour/or config time, and Change nick1 nick2 to 2/X. Would you like to make it more complicated than it has to be? If so feel free to create your version Why do you need this much info on one player? But yeah I could. I might have to use SQL in which case I recommend you go with CTRL.

Per Day I think he wants. If not, feel free to do this, as SQL I dont know well enough. I could use some Tut's with it, if you could.
CTRL calebbfmv for me personally i just want it as basic as possible and to say X amount of people logged on to your server today, This week, This month... That previous message was just an example of what you could do if you wanted to take it further and make it a full plugin because i think it would be very popular on the market for server admins to keep a detailed log of exactly how many members they where getting on there servers over a day, week, month.. and if you really wanted you could make a web GUI with bar graphs showing the progress of their server on a daily basis.. and as not to count the same person twice is why i said have it log the persons IP and how many times that person logged in otherwise it would say X amounts of people joined that day but the X could be the same person over and over so you wouldn't actually know how many people have joined if that makes sense to you guy's.
Makes sense, but we could log each player that joins the server per day with some skill I will look into this.
Will do! Gimme an hour or two and I will start this plugin! EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.
Started! Made the first version: v0.1.1a: Logs when a player joins to a .txt file. Planned: WebUI Auto-Email every week telling to your player on that up to that day. Anything else? EDIT by Moderator: merged posts, please use the edit button instead of double posting.
Pretty Good man, but to be honest, I am in the zone with BorderPatrol. I might be able to send you the file tomorrow after I fix some bugs.
Okay cool take your time with it, I'm in no rush, like I said I really only want it out of curiosity its not a vital plugin for my server to run just an extra cool feature that would help me with advertising and server traffic =D
