Chaging the "View Forum Leaders" board group display order.

[Speculation]

I was just wondering if there was a way to change the display order of the different usergroups on the leaderboard. If anyone could assist and/or link me to a mod that would help, it would be much appreciated.

I think you would have to actually go modify the code in the showgroups.php page (you wouldn't be able to use a plugin because I'm pretty sure you need to add an ORDER BY into the query and there is no plugin to modify the query).

[Speculation]

ah, ok. Thanks a lot!

Lynne I am sorry but, what do you mean?

I mean that you would have to actually go into the code and modify it to do this. You'd need to have a little bit of php/mysql knowledge to do this.

I see, do you think you can help any future users out with this? Or can you ask someone who knows of php/mysql to help people such as myself with rearranging the forum leaders.

I would like to rearrange my forum leaders so it goes according to rank rather than alphabetical.

Founder>Webmasters>Administrators>Supermoderators> Moderators.

Sorry, I don't have time to play with it (I'm actually on vacation at the moment). I know this has been discussed before though in more detail - you can try a search for it.

Thanks for the info. I am sorry to pry on your vacation, hope you enjoy it.
