I want to give members the satisfaction of seeing how many views all their posts have received.

i.e.
Total views of all your posts: 34500

Anyone one know if this hack has been done?

So, to sum all the views of the threads started by the person viewing the page? Not hard at all.
Tell me if this is what you want. :)

I was going to put this information in their control panel, for each members own private reference.

I have just realized that this is a more important requirement for my message boards then I thought.

If no one knows how to do it, can anyone point me to a hack that is similar?

I must say, that this would be a great hack. - It could double for a points program. - The person must be the thread starter however to count the impressions towards their total...

thanks.

Something like this:

is more like it. :)

OK, how about a short, quick explanation of "query_first".

$DB_site->query() is just like mysql_query().

$DB_site->query_first() is the same as the above, only it returns the first row in the result.

For example if you want to find out someone's username, you can do this:
And then you can just use $userinfo[username].

But if you do it this way (the wrong way):
(i.e using query instead of query_first)
You must do $DB_site->fetch_array(), because the result in this case it a 2D array.

Am I making sense here? :)

Thanks Firefly, learned something 2day :)

Why not making a new forum where the php guys can add their little tutorials like this one above? ;)

Crystal clear!
One more question, which file is this object defined in?

Thank You
:D
