Style users

[hagi]

There was something like this in VB2 but non yet for VB3. Basically, it tells you how many users are currently using a style on your board. Its useful for admins to see what style is much more popular too. Thats about it. Any hack like this would be greatly appreciated.

Yes, I agree. I found this thread searching for the answer to your very question. Anyone? Thanks. :)

You can just run


SELECT style.title, count( user.styleid ) as usage_count
FROM user
LEFT JOIN style ON ( user.styleid = style.styleid )
GROUP BY user.styleid


from ACP, this should give you the numbers.

I imagine that is in the running a query section.

Thank you, I will enable that feature and do that tomorrow. Hopefully someone could post how to include the numbers in the style selection like you see on a lot of boards. That would make it very easy. :) Thanks again.

Should be fairly easy to write some code for that ...
Where exactly do want to show this information (screenshot maybe)?

On the boards that I have seen with it, the numbers of users using that style is right next to the style in the style drop-down box. For example, Style 1 (xx). They have it at vbskinz.com I believe.

Is this modification somewhere available?
