Can I get stats without displaying them?

[Carole Asselin]

I would like to get the stats information about the "number of posters", "number of posts", etc. so I can feature some members. I don't want that information to be displayed in a sidebar.

Is there somewhere, in the backend, where I could see those figures for a specific period of time?

For example, who has posted the most in the last month, or what topic has been the most popular in the last week, etc.

Thank you.

See if the Statistics section works for you:

Hum, it does show some stats, but the most I can get is who has posted in the last month/week but it does not say how many posts each of them had in that time period. I know that those stats are available as "popular contributors", so I just assume the same stats are available somewhere else in the backend so I don't have it visible to all.

Maybe create somewhere only available to yourself, and place the block on that page. I cant see how you can do what you are looking to do there though. The popular contributors block is based on reputation not on posts

OK one "alternative" I found was to add the "popular contributors" block as if I was to customize it. It will show the numbers (faint) so I can take note of them, but then, not save that.

Is there one stat that refers to posts?

There isnt unfortunately. You can order by post count if you use a members block, but it wont show what that count is
