Top xx Posters List · **Released**: 07-13-2005

This modification is no longer available or supported.

The 3.5 version of my Top (10) Posters hack.

This has now been re-vamped for the release of version 3.xx - the hack no longer uses a seperate topposters.php file.

This hack 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 in the count, so members in banned groups etc are not shown.

To upgrade (if you want to) uninstall version 2.xx and re-install this version. Note the url to display the page has changed.

History:

v3.01 - First public version 3
v3.02 - Fixed display error reported in post 59
v3.03 - Fixed display error reported in post 84
v3.11 - Series of additions, upgrades and settings added.
v3.12 - Updated install code to check for existing index.
v3.13 - Fixed uncached templates added in v3.11
v3.14 : Changes to display layout.
v3.15 : Minor changes, no update necessary.
v3.16 : Fixed bug in monthly totals caculation.

Go to your navbar template and scroll down until you see



Everything under this are links in your Quick Links menu.

Decide where you want the option to go and then drop this code in

Code:

<tr><td class="vbmenu_option"><a href="topposters.php?$session[sessionurl]">Display Top Posters</a></td></tr>

Thanks for help

Understand now

I have a large board, so i can't put it in forumhome

Thanks again

worked perfect, I threw it in the quicklinks - thanks

Very nice! I like that you wen't that extra step and didn't just make it an "all time top poster" thing.

I am curious, it shouldn't be all that difficult to *EXCLUDE* a certain forum ID, right?

I don't think I would want my Off Topic forum being counted in this tally. Would rather shine some light on my on-topic posters for a change.

Cheers!

Easy enough if you modify the code.
