vb.org Archive - Update Post Counts Script

ok heres the reason for this - i have over 35,000 members and 500,000 posts on our forum. We recently did a purge of old crap and needed to run the update post counts script in admin cp.

Well to say it was slow was an understatment. It took a total of 14 hours to finish.

So a coder freind of mine wote some php which did the same job in only 2 hours (from a backup of our db) - it also displayed what action it took on each row (if post count in DB equalled the post count in the USER table it simply skipped - if it found a different number it displayed that value next to the user id.

Now you can use this code and do whatever you like with it. I thought it might be nice to implement into the admin cp. Not really a hack but more of a tweaked version perhaps. Enjoy anyway.....

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php



$link = mysql_connect("localhost", "username", "password");

mysql_select_db("database_name");



set_time_limit(300000000);



if ($startfrom)

    $foundresult = mysql_query("select * from user where userid >= $startfrom order by userid asc");

else

    $foundresult = mysql_query("select * from user order by userid asc");

$foundnum = mysql_num_rows($foundresult);



for ($i=0;$i<$foundnum;$i++)

{

    $row = mysql_fetch_array($foundresult);

    $huntId = $row["userid"];

    

    // now count posts

    $huntresult = mysql_query("select count(*) from post where userid='$huntId'");

    $huntnum = mysql_result($huntresult, 0);

    

    // posts identical to user entry?

    if ( ($huntnum <= 0) || ($huntnum == $row["posts"]) )

    {

        echo("Skipping userid: $huntId<br>\r\n");

    }

    else

    {

        echo("Updating userid: $huntId (posts: $huntnum)<br>\r\n");

        mysql_query("update user set posts = '$huntnum' where userid = '$huntId'");

    }

    

    flush();

}



mysql_close();

?>
