How do I remove guests from whosonline? I don't want their numbers to show up either.

To get rid of guests and bots, you need to edit PHP-Code.
Just some thoughts to achieve...

For the Index page, edit ./index.php:
- line 187: Remove $guestcount and $botcount to be summarized.
- line 175: Drop $onlinebots from being merged to $onlinemembers

For the Who's Online page, edit ./online.php:
- line 292: Deactivate this code (if query) for guests to be added to $online_row

Backup your PHP files before make the change.

or replace in
\inc\languages\english\index.lang.php

$l['online_note'] = "{1} {2} active in the last {3} minutes ({4} {5}, {6} hidden, and {8} {9})";

by

$l['online_note'] = "{1} {2} active in the last {3} minutes ({4} {5}, {6} hidden";

Thank you.

there is only one problem, the guests are gone, but the numbered pages for the guests are still there. there are only 3 active members but there are 2 pages due to the guests.
