OMG, thank you for the contribution, I have stickied it and rename/modify the post

[ayushsaran]

thats why i made the list, im still adding more info to it, but that is what i wanted to style into the sidebar

you can see it in action on www.ayushsaran.com/blog

[GaMerZ]

okie, thank yoi

[Ttech]

How did you do that? Thats cool. I may try to make that into a GD image if you haven't already.

[ayushsaran]

Code: [Select]

<div id="nutinfo">
<h2>Nutrition Info</h2>
<p>Serving Size 1 blog <br />
Servings Per Container 1</p>

<p class="lines"><small>Amount Per Serving</small></p>
<p class="lines"><span><?php get_totalposts(); ?></span>Total Posts</p>
<p class="lines"><span><?php get_totalcomments(); ?></span>Total Comments</p>
<p class="lines" style="border-bottom:5px solid #000;;"><span><?php get_totalcommentposters(); ?></span>Total Commenters</p>
<p class="lines"><span><small>% Daily Value</small></span>&nbsp;</p>
<ul class="lines">
<?php get_postcats(); ?>
</ul>
</div>

And I'm guessing you use CSS and an image? Thats a pretty cool idea.

[Ttech]

Would you mind if I used it? I'd give you credit  and a link on the site I used it on.

[ayushsaran]

sure

no need for the credit or the link back, its just css styling

appreciate it

[Ttech]

No problem.

    I posted a comment on your blog saying thanks. Nice theme, really creative!

[Ttech]

So I can use this right?

Code: [Select]

font-weight:normal;
margin-top:0pt;
}
#nav_email p {
border-bottom:9px solid #000000;
margin-bottom:2px;
padding-bottom:2px;
}
#nav_email p.lines {
border-bottom:1.5px solid #000000;
}
#nav_email ul.lines li {
border-bottom:1px solid #000000;
list-style-type:none;
text-align:right;
}
#nav_email ul.lines li a {
color:#000000;
float:left;
text-decoration:none;
}
#nav_email p.lines span {
float:right;
}
#commentform, ol.commentlist p {
color:#666666;
font-family:Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;
font-size:11px;
line-height:20px;
margin-left:70px;
}

I'm not good at CSS.

Can I use WP-Stats to return me a number of views per blog post? Or do I need another plugin for this?

Thanks!

[GaMerZ]

no it will not, you need WP-PostViews, WordPress does not count views to a post.

[Ttech]

Yep.

Hi Lester, ayushsaran, everyone. This is a great plugin having so many functions. I have some questions on displaying individual stats.

I'm using wordpress 2.5 already however the site is still in my local server (not online yet).

1. for get_mostcommented
How can I not display the # of comments (e.g. - 9 comments)?
How can I limit the list to a specific number say only 7 most commented posts?

2. for get_recentcomments
How can I not display date, time, and only display an excerpt of the comment, comment poster, and post name?
How can I also limit the number to 5 most recent commments

3. highest rated post
how can I display the 7 most rated post? Without the stars, just the title?

4. most viewed post
how can I display the 7 most viewed post? Without the number of views.
Can I create most viewed post per category?

Thanks so much in advance!

[GaMerZ]

1.

Code: [Select]

<?php get_mostcommented('both', 7); ?>2.

Code: [Select]

<?php get_recentcomments('both', 5); ?>3. You need to edit WP-PostRatings Template, WP-Admin -> Ratings -> Rating Options
4. Read the readme.html under Usage Tab.

For what to show and what not to show, it is out of our support scope. For the Most Viewed Post, in 1.30 version of it (soon) you can edit the template similar to PostRatings.

Thank you so much Lester!

Which code shows quantity of posts and comments of today? :/

[GaMerZ]

It is not possible to show which are the posts/comments that are commented today.

[Roms]

If I use the withdrawal as the number of enteries. What should be done, what would this number did not include the recording of certain category?
