Installed.

You can edit the templates to do that if you prefer it on your site, but i wont be adding them as a default in the mod. :)

Paul is there a way to have this show in the forum blocks ?

Paul M

12-23-2010 11:20 AM

Not without writing a seperate mod, the system for blocks is very diferent.

Looks like this has stopped working on vB 4.1.1 Beta, can anybody confirm this or is it just my test forum?

Paul M

01-10-2011 08:15 PM

Its your forum. Its fine on my 4.1.1 beta.

ceho	01-11-2011 10:44 AM

Looks like I was too tired last night, I stupidly forgot that I changed some usergroup settings, of course they're not counted in a test forum.... Argh! Sorry for the confusion mate!

Thanks. Is it possible to remove "Top Posters by Paul Marsden" at the bottom?

Paul M

01-13-2011 03:52 PM

Why ?

Kyo-dono

01-13-2011 05:23 PM

I like your mod. Thank for it. :)
But i don't like the optic of bottom line. Its only a feeling. I can't explain it. ^^
Is there a legal way to remove the branding?

Paul M

01-13-2011 08:07 PM

Anyone who donates is free to remove the branding. :)

Paul M

You cannot do that, its designed to be its own page.

Well, it could be done, if he really want it and want to do a bit work on it.

You need to change template Top_posters, remove everything except table code for creating list and usual HTML page code. The rest is just how vBulletin creates its own pages, so it could go and in this case it should go.

Then find template that is used everywhere. You should use either navbar or footer (i.e. if you want it on top or bottom of your forum). After that, just put iframe html code calling top posters. :)

If you don't know about what I'm talking, don't do this.

Paul, excellent mod, really like it. I use it for Top 100 posters, so I needed to add poster's position number (you can get lost in this many posters).

If someone wants to do this, edit this template:

Top_Posters_Bit

find:

HTML Code:

{vb:raw posts.username}

add before:

HTML Code:

{vb:raw posts.row}.

As posts.raw isn't defined, you need to create it. Edit plugin Top posters that uses hook misc_start (all plugins have same name, so look for hook).

Find:

PHP Code:


		
			
                $posts['userid'] = $posts[$col]['userid'];

                $posts['username'] = $posts[$col]['username'];

                $posts['postcount'] = vb_number_format($posts[$col]['postcount']);

                $templater = vB_Template::create('Top_Posters_Bit');

                $templater->register('posts',$posts);

                $toppostrow .= $templater->render();

Add right before or after this code:

PHP Code:


		
			
$posts['row'] = $row+1;

That's it, you have users postion before users name. :) I attached modified file.

How do I change the background color?

thanks

Paul M

06-06-2011 12:12 PM

You would need to edit the custom CSS.

Any way you can detail this more, like how I make it darker for my dark skins instead of white? Great mod, btw. Thanks a lot!

Paul M

06-12-2011 10:35 AM

Sorry, I cannot give specific examples - the custom css is a template supplied as part of the mod, you can edit as you wish.

Paul M

Updated: This is now available for the 4.1.x series of vBulletin only.

Alan_SP

12-09-2011 09:17 AM

Paul, could you make that users' names appear how they look like in postbit (with different colors)?

vividbreeze

Is there a homepage widget for this too? Kinda like the top 5 poster one I saw long ago?

Paul M

01-08-2012 08:43 PM

As it says : vB Version: 4.1.x

Installed. It would be cool if you could make it so it appeared under "Who's online" and a bit smaller.

Overall its a sweet mod though. Thanks for it.

This is a great mod, and I used to run it on 3.x. However, I had to disable it because it is an absolute resource hog on my large forum (5+mil posts). Running it the first time spiked my server load for 30 seconds from 2 to 8 (and tied up mysql). subsequent runs still take over 15 seconds. This is on a very fast server (8cpu, 12gig, 15K scsi raid 10, xcache, sphinx, etc).

Are there any options to cache tho results or reduce server load? Maybe a cron job once per day?

Interesting... If I enable the monthly count, it takes forever.. If I do 28 days it also takes forever. But if I do 1 day, 7 days and all time, it takes only a second or two. 14 days maybe adds 1 second. There is a threshold of some type where it takes vastly longer, so it's not linear. Could it have to do with some cache filling up (vbulletin, mysql or xcache)?

All times are GMT. The time now is 05:09 AM.
