Show Thread Enhancements - AdminFuel - Contribution MOD

My second modification, and I quite like it

This modification simply adds a percentage contribution that a user has made to your forum. It is calculated using the post counts.

Installation:

- Upload contribution_install.xml to install product

NOTE: Template edits are now done automatically during installation

Updating

If you are using versions that existed before 1.2, then you MUST remove the following from anywhere in your postbit template (or even posbit_legacy)

$contribution

This is because template edits are now automatic

Demo
AdminFuel

Future Versions
I aim to add graphical representations in later versions

Updates:
v1.2

• More precision with 2 decimal numbers
• No manual template edits!

v1.1 - backward compatibility to 3.7

Remember, mark and nominate

Do you know where I may find something like this compatible with 3.7.3?

It should work with 3.7.3 already

Then the result I get is most odd. When I attempt to upload the product, I get this message:

The following dependencies were not met:

1. This product is not compatible with version 3.7.3 of vBulletin. (Compatible starting with 3.8.0 / Incompatible with 3.8.99 and greater)

Thank you.

I have a question about how to customize it, though:

If I add "$contribution" directly after "$vbphrase[posts]: $post[posts]" to get "$vbphrase[posts]: $post[posts] $contribution", it shows up as follows, using my account info as an example:

Posts: 1,966 Contribution: 5%

That said, I was wondering how to get it like this:

Posts: 1,966 (5%)

You will have to edit the plugin. So find the 'Contribution' plugin and you just need to edit the following line:

$contribution = $vbphrase['rkw_contribution'] .' '. $calculation .'%';

Change it to:

$contribution = '('. $calculation .'%)';

Should work

Not sure what threats you are getting - my members have not reported anything. This modification calculates the percentage of posts made by the member compared to the forum total. It is shown in the postbit template.

Awesome; it works perfectly. I am very happy to finally find a version of this feature that works on 3.7. Thank you again.

One more thing: have you considered making the percentage more precise? For example, instead of 5%, you might say 5.2% or 5.02%? I remember that's how the percentage was displayed by a phpBB2 modification(back when I used that software), and for an old vBulletin modification ("ZH - % Of Forum Posts") that worked for 3.6. I think it is even more interesting like that. I have no knowledge of the coding involved, so if that would take more than a minor adjustment I don't want to bother you about it.

Kevin

I can definitely have a look at it and update in later versions
