Showing Top Poster in v1.18.5

wndfh

hi, I am a beginner who has a project with nodebb forum version 1.18.5. I want to ask if in this version we can create a section so it can show a list like a top poster?

thanks.

You should be able to do this using the data from /api/users?section=sort-posts

thanks for your reply @baris2 , now how to display the looping data in the html static?

If you are building this in a plugin you can create a template file and render with with the data. Take a look at https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-widget-essentials and how it renders various widgets.

so i made a new page with plugin custom-page and now how to add the top poster in that page?

and when i installed the nodebb-plugin-custom-pages from terminal using npm when i access the plugin from admin showing error, but when i installed from admin using menu installed plugin the plugin work. u know why @baris ?

I don't think there is a top posters widget, so you will have to build it or wait for someone else to create it.

After you install from cli you need to rebuild and restart nodebb. Maybe that's why it didn't work.

@wndfh I think @baris is already helping you, but I also would like to bring this plugin to your attention...

it is not what you asked for, but related, so you might be interested in using this as well:
