Top (10) Posters Module

[Acido]

2 templates
1 file

Put the topten.php file in the Modules folder
create 2 new templates : adv_portal_topposters and top_posters with the content included in the aproriate txt files.

It give a module with the Top 10 users with more posts

Is you want change the amount of users to show in this module, simpley change the LIMIT option in the php file:

$top_posters = $DB_site->query("SELECT * FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."user ORDER BY posts DESC LIMIT 10");

where LIMIT 10 is the number of userr to include in this query. Yo can change the numbre 10 for 5, 20, or wathelse that you want.

See screenshot ---

Seems to function properly. Nice hack.

But there is no border around it....

Also -- even though I took out the >> on the rest of the page, it came back on this block?

Sorry for the borders:

In Template: adv_portal_topposters

Find:

<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%">

Replace it with:

<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" class="tborder" width="100%">
Border Fixed ;)

I rewrite a new module. But if you want take a easy way, you can change the query in this module, to get people sorted by reputation, posts, referrals... etc

Check the file topten.php

Where you see: SELECT * FROM ".TABLE_PREFIX."user ORDER BY posts DESC LIMIT 10"

you can change that field (posts) by reputation or joindate, lastactivity etc.

Regards. ;)

I suggest for larger boards if its possible for you to store this number in the datastore or somthing else, so this doesnt have to be run every time a user browses the board, ^^ just a thought that might speed things up

I have not enought skills to do that. :(
Can you help?

[Zachery]

Sadly im not that good with php ^^ altho Brian should be :p

[bluesteel]

Made a VERY minor change to this hack.

In adv_portal_topposters template, find
<td width="100%"><span class="smallfont">$top_stats[top_posters]
</span></td>

And replace with
<td width="100%"><ol><span class="smallfont">$top_stats[top_posters]
</span></ol></td>

This should give you something like this

[TYorke]

Don't forget to also change


$vboptions[blockbullet]


to


$vba_options[portal_blockbullet]

[mholtum]

ok I followed the instructions. How do I activate it? I dont see it in Edit modules.

[mholtum]

ok, I got it.. How can I make it look like my other modules? See image I have set up a dot image in the top left corner.. Won't show in the new topten module. Also there is no way for me to deactivate it.. I would like to add the default dot image I have on my other modules.

[mholtum]

if I go to edit modules there is no title for this Module just "move to" hmmm

[mholtum]

Anyone??

[TYorke]

I can't make out what you are referring to because of the super small image you attached

[mholtum]

Ok, sorry.. If you go to my site http://www.ravensrealm.net you will notice a small orange dot in the left corner of all my boxes.. I have this set to default.. It has appeared on every mudule I have created except this on..

Also when I go to edit Mods. I have no title for Top Ten, just a "Move to: [‹-] [«-]"

[mholtum]

So, as I assume, I am a retard.. :) And why dont I have a title in the edit mods section? I can't deactivate / activiate the module if I wanted to..

[mholtum]

Hi there,

Could you please tell me how to change my default so as to get a different gif to appear in the blocks like your orange dot?

Thanks!

[mholtum]

look for the main options block and put in the IMG code I inserted <img src="/forum/images/dot.gif">

So, vBa CMPS / Default Settings / Enter your code

[bluesteel]

Sorted!!
Thanks for the quick reply. Appreciated.

[mholtum]

[Polo]

Can anyone help me?

[Polo]

anyone?

[Fiber]

I can't beleive this! lol This is such a a simple install, but for some reason not working.

Everything is there except for the posters content?

LOL, this make no sense.

Fiber

[Fiber]

Apparently this is not supported anymore.

Fiber

[sully02]

I'm guessing not. I installed it, but cannot see the posters.

[sully02]

Fiber, I think I figured out the problem.

Did you name your second template as topposters? As in without an underscore? If so, try putting an underscore in, so it reads top_posters.

It worked for me, and now I have the information up.

[venomx]

I suggest for larger boards if its possible for you to store this number in the datastore or somthing else, so this doesnt have to be run every time a user browses the board, ^^ just a thought that might speed things up

Yeah this is why I have not added this to my site. :(

[socals]

Using the following SQL statement, you can copy the top 10 posters into a database called topposters (with userid, username & posts fields)

INSERT INTO topposters (userid, username, posts) SELECT userid, username, posts FROM user WHERE posts > 0 ORDER BY posts DESC LIMIT 10

[ttnb]

Made a VERY minor change to this hack.

In adv_portal_topposters template, find
<td width="100%"><span class="smallfont">$top_stats[top_posters]
</span></td>

And replace with
<td width="100%"><ol><span class="smallfont">$top_stats[top_posters]
</span></ol></td>

This should give you something like this


Can user's avatar be dispayed too ?

[Polo]

Since this mod seems not to be supported anymore, i made my own custom one...

Got it working on my site, if anyone is interested here is the link :)
