I want to create a little plugin that shows the weekly top posters in a list. I've grabbed a bit of code from the forum stats plugin to get started, but now i'm wondering how I can get/specify the users post count for a specific timespan (a week for example).
$res = $db->query("SELECT user_id, user_name, user_postcount FROM $db_users WHERE 1 ORDER by user_postcount DESC LIMIT 10");
foreach ($res->fetchAll() as $row) {
$t1->assign(array(
'TOPPOSTERS_NAME' => cot_build_user($row['user_id'], htmlspecialchars($row['user_name'])),
'TOPPOSTERS_POSTS' => $row["user_postcount"],
));
}
Thanks. |

The users table does not keep history information, so you cannot extract statistics for a given time span. Instead, the information should be extracted from the forum posts table. The query for top 10 posters for the last 7 days looks like this:
SELECT u.user_id, u.user_name, u.user_avatar, COUNT(p.fp_id) AS count
FROM `$db_forum_posts` AS p
LEFT JOIN `$db_users` AS u ON p.fp_posterid = u.user_id
WHERE fp_creation > UNIX_TIMESTAMP() - 7*24*3600
GROUP BY fp_posterid
ORDER BY count DESC
LIMIT 10
May the Source be with you!
