No list of IP addresses online in the last 24 hours

I'm the admin of the Montrose Peace Vigil board, which got upgraded to Version 5 this afternoon.  I can still click on the number of Guests in the current Users Online in Forum Information & Statistics and get a pop up with the IP addresses.  How can I see the IP addesses for all of the Guests in the last 24 hours like I used to?

By the way, our members and me thank ProBoards for hosting our forum so beautifully for five years.  I think we'll appreciate the new version too.

Hi

Unfortunately, viewing the guest IPs for the last 24 hours is no longer an option. I will mark this topic as a feature request to get the admins attention, and hopefully they'l provide insight as to why it's no longer an option, or the possibility of it returning.

From an administrative perspective there's not a necessity to have a log of the most recent IPs to visit in the last 24 hours. Once the guest posts anything on your forum their IP will be logged in that post and you can take action with it.

I like to see the list because I used to check to see if they were genuine guests or just my members not logged on. Or if I thought I had a lot of guests and learned it was just the same one repeatedly. Personally, I don't think it's a necessity, no, but it was very useful and I'm quite confused that it was removed and would love to see it restored in some manner.

Hi,

We originally had guests in the last 24 hours, but due to an issue with storing/pulling that much data (especially for the large forums that get quite literally tens of thousands in a 24 hour period) it had to be removed. This will not be making a return.

Ah, that makes sense. Thank you for explaining
