For anyone interested, this is the fix I implemented on my board to have it actually display an online indicator.

/scripts/showprofile.inc.php
find:
PHP Code

	$mood_alt = preg_replace("#.(gif|jpg|png)$#","",$mood);

Replace with:
PHP Code

	$extraquery = "";
	if (!$config['DISABLE_ONLINE_INVISIBLE'] && ($user['USER_MEMBERSHIP_LEVEL'] != "Administrator" && !preg_match("/Moderator/",$user['USER_MEMBERSHIP_LEVEL']))) {
		$extraquery = "AND t2.USER_VISIBLE_ONLINE_STATUS = 'YES'";	
	}
	$query = "
		SELECT count( t1.USER_ID )
		FROM ubbt_ONLINE AS t1, ubbt_USER_PROFILE AS t2
		WHERE t1.USER_ID = t2.USER_ID
		AND t1.USER_ID = ?
		$extraquery
	";
	$sth = $dbh->do_placeholder_query($query,array($User),__LINE__,__FILE__);
	list($isonline) = $dbh -> fetch_array($sth);	
	if (!$isonline) {
		$mood = "offline.gif";
		$mood_alt = $ubbt_LANG['OFFLINE'];
	} else {
		$mood_alt = "{$ubbt_LANG['ONLINE']}   ".preg_replace("#.(gif|jpg|png)$#","",$mood);
	}

/templates/default/showprofile.tpl

find
Code
<img src="{$config.BASE_URL}/images/{$style_array.mood}/{$mood}" alt="{$lang.ONLINE}   {$mood_alt}" title="{$lang.ONLINE}   {$mood_alt}" />

replace with:
Code
<img src="{$config.BASE_URL}/images/{$style_array.mood}/{$mood}" alt="{$mood_alt}" title="{$mood_alt}" />
