Average age in forumhome · **Released**: 10-24-2005

This is a modification I really wanted for my forum and I am posting it cause I thought that others may find it useful as well. However, I only had the idea as Xenon helped my really much with the query (My SQL knowledge is very basic and this is why this hack isn't supported, I wish I could support it but I don't have the knowledge to do so).
Thanks also to tamarian for fixing the issue with the table prefix.

Instructions

1. Import the attached XML file. It's a plugin, not a product

2. Edit template FORUMHOME:
Find:

HTML Code:

<span title="<phrase 1="$vboptions[activememberdays]">$vbphrase[within_the_last_x_days]</phrase>">$vbphrase[active_members]: $activemembers</span>
                </if>

Add below:

HTML Code:

Average Age: $avg_age

You're done!

If you liked this and you are using it, don't forget to click INSTALL!

If you want less or more than 2 decimals at the average then:

In the plugin manager click Avg Age in order to edit the plugin code.
Find DAYOFYEAR(NOW())) / 365), 2) and change the 2 in green to the number of decimals you like.

Then don't install it.
In what particular way can your comment be considered "constructive"?

Don't worry, Michelle, I'll install this. If he can come up with another way to get this info without a query, then he'll be doing magic.

Because people should know this.

I didn't mean to be offensive or anything.

Wanted to let ya'll know this works in 3.6. However I didn't like where it displayed the age, thought it was kinda of weird, makes it look like it's implying it's the age of the members currently signed in.

Instead, I wanted it next to the member total in the navbar. See here for instructions on how to do this, I think it looks a lot better:

Please try it like this (works for me):

open template "navbar" and search for:

Code:

$vbphrase[active_members]: $activemembers</span></if></div>

Modify this line that it looks like:

Code:

$vbphrase[active_members]: $activemembers</if>, Average Age: $avg_age</span></div>

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