Bug #436
closedWho's Online Widget

Description
It looks to me like the timing of the "Who's Online" widget has changed since the upgrade. Previously, it showed people who had visited the site in the past hour or so (I'm not sure of the exact length of time). Now, it only shows members who are actively navigating the site.
Can you investigate this and see whether there is any way to lengthen the window of time used to compile that list?

As you might be able to gather from that patch, the widget is intended to show users whose last activity is within the last 5 minutes. If it wasn't working like that before, it was probably a bug.
https://github.com/castiron/cac/commit/f66e641a3319bf7cbac10aebf2dcb914e4f479d6 changes the interval to 60 minutes. That patch required https://github.com/castiron/cac/commit/e0edb32b61e2e28065d5b10b6ac4fdee2c58feaa, which appears in versions of BP later than the one we have in the 1.1 release.
Reopen if you are unhappy with this change.
