This silly little hack calculates the "velocity" of your forums measured in posts per hour.

It runs as a scheduled task once per hour. You can change how often it runs, but please remember that this one queries the post table which can make quite a hit on a large board.

NOTE: In velocity.php, I set the limit on the first query to avaluethatexceeds how many posts per day that my forum gets. Change this value to be higher than the number of posts you expect to get in aday,but make it reasonable.

How it looks is entirely up to you. Change the template to suit your needs. I kept mine simple for now. I'm sure you'll find more creative ways to display this data.

Deaths, you were too fast. Grab the install instructions again real quick. I didn't have the queries in that one.

It runs a maximum of two queries every time it runs. One to get the posts and then one to update the max velocity log if necessary. But, it runs as a cron job and can be scheduled to run hourly or daily. It's your choice.

OK, I've got it installed into a nice box under my users online... The first thing I've noticed we are missing is a timestamp from when the top velocity occured. That would be a nice addition amy.
