I’ve figured it out. Add the following to your page template:
//Set the $curauth variable
if(isset($_GET['author_name'])) :
$curauth = get_userdatabylogin($author_name);
else :
$curauth = get_userdata(intval($author));
endif;
// Define the ID of whatever authors page is being viewed.
$authortemplate_id = $curauth->ID;
// Connect to database.
global $wpdb;
// Define table as variable.
$who_is_online_table = $wpdb->prefix . 'who_is_online';
// Query: Count the number of user_id's (plugin) that match the author id (author template page).
$onlinestatus_check = $wpdb->get_var( $wpdb->prepare( "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM ".$who_is_online_table." WHERE user_id = '".$authortemplate_id."';" ) );
// If a match is found...
if ($onlinestatus_check == "1"){
echo "<p>User is <strong>online</strong> now!</p>";
}
else{
echo "<p>User is currently <strong>offline</strong>.</p>";
}
