@baris Ok thanks, I will take a closer look.

Could you show me a quick screenshot of what it looks like when the leaderboard succesfully loads? And where would I find the template file in the leaderboard plugin/greater nodeBB app for what should be loading the html for the leaderboard?

Thank you!

@baris yes, currently I see a blank page when I follow any of the daily/monthly/weekly links, even though the route loads succesfully. Is there supposed to be some display of the top posters/reputation there from the default install of the leaderboard plugin?

When I look at the regular "members" section (that comes with the default implementation) from the top ribbon, I can see the accumulate total posts total, and reputation total by member. So I know my NodeBB instance should have some posts/reputation leaders

@baris I backported that change as recommended and it fixed the issue. Thanks for your help!

Just making sure I understand the plug-in correctly: the route now loads correctly, but nothing is displayed despite having users that should have a daily/weekly/monthly reputation total.

Is the next step to create my own template that references reputation totals stored in the user object? Just wondering the best way to take advantage of the routes and sorting the plugin-in provides and add a simple visualization of the reputation leaders for the day/week/month

Thanks for your response baris

I'm currently using version 1.0.2 of the plugin, and 1.1.2 of NodeBB, so they should be compatible.

I took a look at the error log and there is a stack trace like you mentioned:

I will take a deeper look myself. Let me know if you've seen similar errors before. Appreciate your help!

I am trying to install the basic leaderboard plugin found here: https://github.com/NodeBB/nodebb-plugin-leaderboard

I have successfully installed it, and have the route set up so that users can navigate to the leaderboard landing page. This landing page correctly ranks all users by order of highest reputation to lowest.

However, when I click on the "Day", "Week", or "Month" options, I receive the following error in my browser console:
GET http://localhost:4567/api/leaderboard/daily?_=1472702124051 500 (Internal Server Error)

Has anyone else used this plugin or similar plugins that add new routes on top of the base route (like /leaderboard/daily on top of the base /leaderboard) that has run in to similar 500 code errors?

I understand this is a pretty general error code, so even some advice on next steps to troubleshoot would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike

@jarey thanks for pointing out that plugin. I had misinterpreted it's functionality before. When I saw "Max upvote weigh (points)" I assumed you could only use that configuration to scale the upvote-to-reputation ratio based on the reputation of the user doing the voting.

For others that run into a similar issue. Using the plugin Jarey pointed out, if you'd like to make 1 upvote = 10 reputation I was able to do that by setting:

Max upvote weigh (points) = 9

Since the default weight is 1 upvote = 1 reputation, and this plug in then adds the additional 9 reputation.

The default installation gives a user 1 reputation per upvote. How could I change the source code to give them say 10 reputation per upvote?

I am going through the source code myself now and will post here if I can figure it out.

Appreciate everyone's help.
