sorry but still do not understand

I tried to put 200 in Target Activity
and 50 in Activity Target: Minimum Points

to have very high percentage do not
but after midnight the value is set to 4 and the percentages become 6789.39% :-(

Why?

Please increase the Activity Target: Minimum Points to an even higher number, and keep doing so until the percentages normalise.

I tried to put 300 in Target Activity
and 150 in Activity Target: Minimum Points

but after midnight the value Target Activity is set automatically to 1 and the percentage, highest: 35.542.86% :-(

You're not supposed to change the Target Activity yourself, that's only for testing purposes - namely what you want to try to get the Activity Target: Minimum Points to become.

If you don't understand what I'm telling you then please let me know, because at the moment you are completely ignoring me, which makes it impossible to help you.

sorry but I did not understand what to do.
Can you explain? thanks
and sorry again

I must say this confused me at first as well.

Like the other poster I wanted to put in a fixed number of posts, say 20, and then gauge a user's activity from that. If I saw as user with 50% I knew he made 10 posts, a user with 10% only had 2 posts and so on.

The system seems to sum all posts and calculate an average number of posts and set this as the new daily target. A good idea at first glance as posters constantly exceeding 100% will raise tomorrows target a little and by extension put a upward pressure on all posters to keep up and achieve 100% or more. In theory this would benefit the forum immensely.

I fear the practice is somewhat different. If the general trend is for fewer posts that target drops to a new lower average and this in turn could lead to a gradual downward spiral with posters thinking that they are achieving, say 95%, of the target and settling for that. It still has merit as posters may be encouraged if they see themselves achieving over a 100% but I'm a bit pessimistic about that.

Perhaps an option to have either a fixed target or a daily recalculated target would be a good idea?

- vBActivity v2.1.7:
Change: Remove "Requestable / Nominatable" from Award areas in Lite, as these features are Pro only
Change: Major performance increase on pages like Activity Feed

vBActivity v2.1.8
* Feature: Added an option to disable the "Activity Feed" page. This is recommended for large forums (10,000+ members, 500,000+ posts) as database servers have a hard time coping with a "points log" table that large.
