Top Posters mod for vb 3.6.

This displays a page with the Top Forum Posters for a given set of periods. Two periods are fixed ('This Month' & 'Overall') but can be turned off in the options. The other three periods are user definable (in days) - the default values are 1 day (24 hours), 7 days & 28 days. These three columns cannot be turned off.

The number of posters to be shown can also be set, the default is the top 10 posters. You can also select which usergroups are included (or excluded) in the count, so members in banned groups etc are not shown. Excluded is only available from v3.29 onwards.

If enabled, it will also attempt to add a link to your Quick Links or Navbar. There is an option to prefix this path if you use something like CMPS.

To install just unzip the xml file and import it using the Product Manager

Wow, my first install of a product and it's wonderful! Thanks

The Navbar Quick Link works when in the forums page but from any CMPS page the menu link does not include the "/forums" path. I thought adding "misc.php" to the CMPS Navbar replacements would take care of it but it doesn't. Does anyone else have an idea how to make this work with the CMPS navigation in Quick Links? Thanks for any help.

It won't work with CMPS unless you manually edit the plugin - replacing misc.php with /forum/misc.php

Thank you for the reply Paul and for this mod. I hate to be so dense but which file do I need to edit to add the path to misc.php?

ncangler · #**147** 01-13-2007, 10:09 AM

Oh wait, it is the .xml file itself right? (Add "/forums/" to lines 100 and 105?) And then reinstall it?

ncangler · #**148** 01-13-2007, 10:34 AM

I also added it on line 235. I then reinstalled the plugin and it worked like a charm. Thank you! Sorry for all the posts.

apologies for I have not gone through the last 10 pages to see if the question was asked (and answered).

but is it possible to display who are the top posters and thread starters in a particular forum ??

Paul M · #**150** 01-17-2007, 11:00 PM

No, that is not possible with this.

Version 3.29 has had the usergroups option enhanced - you can choose to include or exclude the list of usergroups (or include all usergroups).
