Hi there, I have various stats on my website, and regarding the post counts in particular, i have my top five posters listed. But in the web stats, their posts far outweight what the web stats says. (see my example)

I want to know, how would I best add the following new line in the websites stats box:

Quote:

Threads: 899, Posts: 9,541, Members: 2,263
Welcome to our newest member, MEMBERNAME
We also have XXXXXX posts in our Archive

Basically, I just want to add an extra line in there, with the archive post count calculated, just like the other stats number count. I also wouldn't mind a link to the archive, which would also aid SEO, it would also show of my 2,263 members, the forums are not controlled by 5 members alone.

Can anyone help me? I think this would make a good hack that many people may want to have if they prune their forums often?

What archive do you mean?

The archived forum posts. After I archived them, the stats read that the website only has 9,000 or something posts, but we have about 18,000 in the forum archive.

I just want to show these these stats as well.

Can you be more specific about your archive? It is a forum or something else?

The forums archive. It is where all my old posts are held (mostly for the search engines to crawl) but members can also browse the forums archive.

(It might be a custom archive I have added along with vbSEO, but it is basically just a forum called - "Archive")

I am not too sure about posting links, and if it is allowed, but you can see my example of my archive here:

http://www.worldofclans.com/forums/archive/

Does this make more sense??

EDIT: Upon reviewing the archive, it doesn't appear to show it to have 20,000 posts. Have I made a boo-boo somewhere??

That is the default vBulletin "Archive". This is just a lightweight view of your regular threads. All threads in the archive are the same as the threads you have using the regular view of your board.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
