The 'who's online' counter counts each page view as a guest, so if I click 10 pages it will say that 10 guests are viewing this forum

I've already tried resetting 'index_whosonline' but it's still mis-counting

index_whosonline
<tr>
<td class="tcat"><span class="smalltext"><strong>{$lang->whos_online}</strong> [<a href="online.php">{$lang->complete_list}</a>]</span></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td class="trow1"><span class="smalltext">{$lang->online_note}<br />{$onlinemembers}</span></td>
</tr>

The template is just HTML with a few variables, it doesn't handle the business logic.

From the sounds of it your website is behind a proxy server and each request is served by a different IP. Can you confirm?

I'm not sure, but is there anyway I can fix this without having to disable it?
