XenCustomize Forum Visitors for XenForo 2

Discover who visits each forum section of your XenForo community!

XenCustomize Forum Visitors tracks and displays registered members who visit individual forum nodes within your XenForo community. Each forum has its own visitor list, making it easy to see which members have visited that specific discussion section.

Display visitors directly on individual forum pages, explore members' visited and revisited forums, and discover popular forum nodes and active forum explorers through interactive widgets with time filters and visual rankings.

With optional XenCustomize Thread Visitors integration, you can also include members who visited threads belonging to a particular forum node, even if they never opened that forum's main page.

Key Features

Individual Forum Visitor Tracking
Automatically track registered members visiting each forum node, recording their latest visit and total visits to that forum.

Optional Thread Visitors Integration — NEW!
Include members who visited threads belonging to a specific forum node alongside those who visited the forum page directly. Each member appears only once in the combined visitor list.

Requires the separately available XenCustomize Thread Visitors add-on. Forum Visitors works independently without it.

Forum Visitor Block
Display visitors on each individual forum page using avatars or usernames, with configurable positioning and visitor limits.

Detailed Forum Visitor List
View a complete, paginated list of members who visited a particular forum node. With Thread Visitors integration enabled, switch between All, Forum, and Threads to filter visitors by source.

Top Forum Visitors Widget — IMPROVED!
Highlight members who have explored the most distinct forum nodes, with member avatars, visit counts, and visual progress bars. Switch between the last 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, or all time without reloading the page. Links let you explore the forums each member visited.

Most Visited Forums Widget — IMPROVED!
Discover which individual forum nodes attract the most unique registered visitors, with proportional progress bars and interactive time-period filters. Both widgets can optionally include visitors recorded through Thread Visitors.

Visited Forums Profile Tab
View the individual forum nodes a member has visited, including their latest visit dates.

Revisited Forums Profile Tab
Discover which forum nodes a member has visited more than once, including visit counts and latest visit dates.

Time-Based Filtering & Sorting
Display members who visited a particular forum within the last X hours, sorted by latest visit or alphabetically.

Permission Controls
Control which user groups can view forum visitor lists and members' visited forum information.

Automatic Log Cleanup
Choose how long forum visit records are retained, or keep them indefinitely. A scheduled cleanup removes expired records.

Optimized Performance — IMPROVED!
Efficient visit recording and visitor retrieval help keep the add-on lightweight, including when optional Thread Visitors integration is enabled.
