Yep.

i did the "not required part" of the installation

i just loaded the update, and everyone has firefox when i view firefox
everyone has ie when i view ie

im a little confused.. let me know if i got this right:
lets say a guest logs on that has never been there before. they will have to wait 15 minutes or so before everyone's browser shows up correctly?

or just the database one time, globally. after that everyone sees everything the way its supposed to be.

is there a way to show the browsers of guests? its only showing up in the online list, not the last click or anything

Basically:

IPB by default truncates the user agent string to 50 characters, and sticks this in the session table, or temporary memory when you visit the board for the first time that session or you login.

After the modifications you've made, IPB no longer truncates this to 50 characters - the whole user agent string can be stored in memory. this is required for more accurate detection.

However, removing this truncate does not automatically cause existing entries to have the full user agent. Therefore you either need to clear the sessions table and force new entries to be created, or wait for each user to get a new session with the new UA.

This only happens once - after that every session has the full UA.

so what do i do to clear the sessions table? do i manually delete it or run a sql command?

Run command:

TRUNCATE TABLE ibf_sessions;
