Threads Started by User in Postbit and Profile
 

vB3.5.4 Threads Started by User in Postbit and Profile
Version 1.0.1
(By Andreas, Boofo, Hambil and Paul M.)

What does this product do?
This product counts the threads started by a user and displays it in the postbit and the profile. It will also display the threads per day in the profile. The thread count is automatically updated hourly via cron job. New threads are added to the count in real time. No extra queries are run in the postbit or profile when getting the thread count, only when the cron job runs. This product has been tested on a live board with over 15,000 users and 40,000 threads and ran unnoticeably in the background in 0.3 seconds during the cron job update. This product only counts valid threads (not moderated or soft-deleted threads).

NOTE: This Hack requires at least mySQL 4.0.4

Version Information:
Version 1.0.0 --Initial release
Version 1.0.1 --No longer counts threads in forums that have the "Count Posts Made in this Forum Towards User Post Counts" option set to No. Also made the posts and threads counts in the postbit clickable search links like in the profile.

NOTE: You must redo the postbit template edit to get the clickable links.

Credits:
Thanks goes out to Andreas for the original version of this product. Thanks also goes out to Paul M for coming up with the way to update the thread count without adding a query to every post, and to Hambil for coming up with the way to not count threads in forums where the "Count Posts Made in this Forum Towards User Post Counts" option is set to No. Thanks guys! ;)

Thanks BooFo

You are very welcome, sir. ;)

I know there was another hack doing the same in member's profile
But this is great ;) realy and nice ideas in coding
thnx, Sir :)

The reason I released this is because the other hack you mentioned adds a query for each post on the page. ;)

I can't take the credit for all of this, Andreas and Paul M. were the reasons it turned out as well as it did. ;)

You might want to click the install button as I plan on adding a few things to this soon. ;)

Yeah ur hack is more powerful ;)
i was plan to click install once i realy instal it when i've time ;)
anyway waiting for the update
*/me clicks INSTALL

Very nice, Boofo. Thanks for releasing this. ;)

Thanks Bob! Will be installing this later today!

You 2 ladies AND Developer are very welcome. ;)

>>>>>><<<<<

It sure took you long enough to catch that. I'm disappointed. :cross-eyed:

I will change it now. ;)

reserved

For what?

dont know, maybe I wanted to try it first or maybe I wanted to say this when posting at the first post, but I always can't catch it.

But does it work in postbit_legacy ?

Thanks Boofo

Yes, it works fine in there but as I don't use the posbit_legacy, I didn't include the code for that. But it should be basically the same thing I would think. ;)

You guys might want to click install for this as I am planning on adding some more to it soon. ;)

Here's my posbit_legacy
I can't find the code.

Any idea Sir. ?

Very nice,ill be installing this later today

Well, no wonder you can't find this:

in there. You have a very heavily modified postbit_legacy template. You need to just add the code where you want it to show then. The code I posted above I got from doing a Show Default for the template. That will tell you where it should be at in an unmodified template. ;)

Thanks Sir. so much for your efforts. I think I'm getting better in my 2nd week installing and dealing with hacks.
Waiting for the next versions.
Here's before and after. :banana:

The after picture shows the Moderator Statistcs. :surprised:

dumb me, fixed it :D

That looks really good! ;)

Got mine up and running too Boofo, thanks again!

You're very welcome, young lady. ;)

Thanks it's very usefull.

Thanks Bob .. always knew you'd be useful one day .. https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2006/05/25.gif .. https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/external/2006/05/26.gif

Clicked install

Don't get too used to it. My usefulness comes in spurts, and not very often at that. ;)

By the way, I like those post icons. Wanna share, buddy? ;)

Nice one Boofo, thanks alot :)

You're very welcome, sir. ;)

Awesome, very nice work guys.. :)

Installed.

Thank you, sir, Enjoy! ;)

As requested on posting my information, here's an sql error I've received.
I'm using PHP 4.3.9 and MySQL 4.1.10a

Fixed it - had to add "create temporary table" privileges/permissions to MySQL - then FLUSH the priviledges/permissions.

Glad you got it sorted, sir. ;)

I figured it was a permissions thing for MySQL. Nice to be right every now and then. ;)

Awesome! Finally, you have made this hack for the vB v3.5.x series. Thanks a ton Boofo! :)

Very nice, thank you.

*installs

You're welcome and you are going to miss a very important update in the next day or two. ;)

A question:
What is the difference of this mod with this one:
https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthrea...ght=post+count
...from Andreas. Obviously, without taking care of the point you write about, Boofo, in the post #4 of that thread. Hm?.

This is just an expansion of that with the added things from the first post here, which now account for moderated and deleted threads.
