Is there any way to display the number of users registered in a block at all?

Also - the Top posters, only represents the number of comments and forum posts. How can i get so that it displays a count for every download added ?

cheers

Try hacking the downloads module, that's where I think it would be. Find where the forum module adds to the post count and add that to the part of the downloads module that adds/approves a download.

I would try, but I'm lazy

Could you (or anyone else) have a go at all?

Or point me in the right direction to the probable files - thanks

Ive had a good look through the newbb module files and found a few references to posts that maybe relevant. Saying this, i have also come across the 'comment_**.php' files within the 'include' folder.

I am unsure which files will lead me to my "goal", and if i do find the correct code (where ever they are ), where will i need to place it in the downloads files?

Please can some lend a hand?

Cheers

I'm looking at it some more, and I've revised my opinion to:



I would suggest waiting for some bigwig with a more in depth knowledge of XOOPS to come along and explain how XOOPS stores, retrieves, updates etc. A user's post count. I must admit that I'm now a little curious myself.

If you have the Members module instaled, you get the number of members in its main page. If you go to the template section, you'll see this info comes from <{$lang_totalusers}>.

I'm trying to put that info in a block but I'm failing miserably. I guess in the end the only way to do that is either by a big hack in Members module or by using it to create a new module with a dummy block displaying <{$lang_totalusers}> or $total.


I believe this is the important part of Members' index.php:
$member_handler =& xoops_gethandler('member');
$total = $member_handler->getUserCount(new Criteria('level', 0, '>'));
$xoopsTpl->assign('lang_totalusers', sprintf(_MM_TOTALUSERS, ''.$total.''));.

I hope we can get thru this and end a bit wiser... either by getting to know how to do that or by learning to leave code to people that can code
