Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Currently, guests are only calculated when using the Flarum default session driver (`files`). I might consider adding support for `database`, `redis`, etc in future. Let me know if you're interested in sponsoring any of these additions.

This will also install [Forum Widgets Core](https://github.com/afrux/forum-widgets-core) as it relies on it.

Install with composer:

```
composer require ianm/online-guests:"*"
```

Updating
--------

[](#updating)

```
composer update ianm/online-guests:"*"
php flarum migrate
php flarum cache:clear
```
