I wonder if it is just my laptop (though I have tried on two different browsers) but I noticed this first last night and have checked at regular intervals all through today (to the point of doing screenshots with times on themsmile) For the last 24 hours or so on the Online users block I have only seen myself (fair enough) and Yanus Iakulov and Andrew Worley. Nobody else. And they appear to have been permanently online the same as myself. Well that's fine too -you are very welcome gentlemen! But I find it odd that nobody else has appeared and that the order has remained unchanged since around this time last night. I know the Lounge is not as frequented as the Using Moodle forums but people have posted here today and I would have thought the block might have changed more. Does it look different for others? Do you think my version has got stuck with the three of us? Or is it simply that we three are the only online users every time I have been to check today?

thanks Tim! Well it is now Monday morning and the three of us are still stuck in the block in the same order with no sign of anyone else. Odd.  I think I might delete the block and put it back again to see if anything changes.

Sorry but this is doing my head inthoughtful What do others see in the online users block? Mine has not changed for over a day now - just me and the two guys. I even deleted the block and added it again just to see if it would change...

Hi, Mary.  I'm seeing the same thing for this block, only with my name where yours is.

The problem is, I can't tell if there is anyone else online in here right now that I should be seeing.  in any case, I can confirm that I see the same thing.

So you see you and the other two guys (soon to become famous, they are getting so many mentionssmile) There is something definitely amiss here I think. I need someone to be here the same time as me so I can see if it changes. I can't believe though that I haven't been here at the same time as all the others who have been here today.

Yanus and Andrew seem to be in the Lounge, but in reality, they've never posted or started a discussion. Looks like they are getting pinged or are pinging every five minutes.

So, the script that updates online users has definitely got them in its sights.

Just an update- the guys are still here -or at least their names are! I actually think the issue might be this in the tracker MDL-33815 though there is not much I can do about it, if it is.

I can't do much either, but I went and voted for the issue in the tracker. I notice one of the guys, Yanus Iaculov, is also always there when I log on to Using Moodle.

Oh  I am here now! And I can see THE Ben Reynolds - who has made a sensible suggestion about what might be going on with those two (globally famous) "online users" I mean - Ben is in the online users block with me and the two guys.  (See- I knew he would follow!)

EDIT  -no Ben has gone now, so it is back to us three...

Indeed. I see you, Ms. Mary. 2:55 PM my time. But, when Kathy C was here, I was, too, and I didn't see her.

How very strange.

When I first read this there was only Yanus with me - no Andrew. I logged out and then back in and now I see both of them with me. From their Profiles, they seem to be normal, nice and interesting guys we'd like to have with us. They both logged on for the first time on the 6th of August but not at exactly the same time.

Hope someone will elucidate the mystery...

Hi All

Just me and the my two buddies Andy and Yan, hangin' around in the wild, yohooo!. You mean you don't know good ole' Andy and Yan? Aw, c'mon!

Okay, okay, it's just me and them and I only just met them (their avatars).
Theory: Maybe their PCs are logged in indefinitely?
