Threads Started by User in Postbit and Profile for vB3.7.0 beta 4
Version 1.0.1
(By Boofo)
What does this product do?
This product counts the threads started by a user and displays it in the postbit and the profile. It will also display the threads per day in the profile. The thread count is automatically updated hourly via cron job. New threads are added to the count in real time. No extra queries are run in the postbit or profile when getting the thread count, only when the cron job runs. This product only counts valid threads (not moderated or soft-deleted threads).
Note: Only 1 query is used during the hourly cron update.
Version Information:
Version 1.0.1 --Initial release (No known bugs)
Credits:
Thanks goes out to Andreas, Paul M and Hambil for their invaluable help with the original version of this product. Without them, this hack would not have been possible. And a special thanks goes out to Icy, for taking care of things while I was away.

Which one is better? Right now I have installed Mudvayne's Hack (see Attachment). But I'm a lil bit curious so I'd like to know what hack is more exact in its calculating -Mike
Mudvayne's Hack is my hack. He just fixed a db query syntax for 3.6.8 as I was still running 3.5.4 at the time and asked if he could release it. This is an update version of that with the Threads Per Day fixed and working right and the cron update working like it should have been in the first version. The cron update doesn't work in the version you are running unless you un-install and reinstall the hack. That was the only time it was updating. Now it does it hourly with the new cron hooks in this version.
@ Mike-D - I also got the timezone map working in 3.7.0 beta 4.

Aah ok, now I'm on the way

Hmm that get me thinking. I changed some details in your hack including a percent calculating of written Threads and Posts. See my Memberinfo. As far as I can see is, that your Hack work excellent. You know what? Is it possible to check per hand to see whether the Cron Job works right? Right now I'm kinda unsure. Thank you for your great support

Ah yes: Boofo's Timezone Hack. Good to hear that it works in vB 3.7. That hack is really great and so damn informative. My members love it
