Top Thank Earners (monthly stats) for non-vb pages
Version: 1.02
Author: LBmtb[/email]
Last updated: May 3nd, 2007
DESCRIPTION:
This displays the top X thank earners in X month. The X's are configurable. You can have multiple tables in a single page. For example: you can have "Top 20 in May 2007" and have "Top 5 in April 2007" or any other combination you can think of.
The table it produces is a plain jane table but can be styled with CSS. The table's class is "top_thanks" and the rows have alternating classes ("odd" and "even") in case you want to do alternating colors for the rows. Here's what it looks like:
vbSEO URLs and caching the queries are both optional. By default they are not used. Please see #3 of the instructions.
If using the caching technique ... the queries are cached for an hour to speed up the page and reduce server load. For more on the PEAR cacheing stuff, read this: https://books.google.com/books?id=iUfIqyAbIU4C&pg=PA272&lpg=PA272&dq=%22cache+db+php%22&source=web&ots=IwUQ4B0bsq&sig=BTW3NXQ4zbI4us1k1sSI7-grRRQ#PPA272,M1
A basic understanding of PHP (or be able to follow directions very well) will help a lot here.
VERSION HISTORY:
1.00: Initial release
1.01: Made using the cached technique optional.
1.02: Cleaned stuff up. Made it a bit easier to use and configure.
REQUIREMENTS:
1) Pear must be setup on your server to use the cached technique. You MIGHT need to do an ini_set() to get the Cache/DB.php available to you.
2) vbSEO is optional. See instructions for how to get vbSEO'ized member urls.
3) Abe's Post Thank You Hack. You may download it here: [AJAX] Post Thank You Hack
4) The page you use this on needs to have a php extension or if it's html, parse it as php (you can set this in htaccess)
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
1) Open thanks1-02.php and fill in variables under "FILL IN STUFF BELOW, mk?"
2) Upload thanks1-02.php to your site (same directory where your top thank earner page will be)
3) On the stats page, add the following somewhere before the stats and change first two variables if you'd like:
4) Wherever you want a top thank earners table to appear, put in the following code and configure it a bit (look over the comments):
The previous make a table for the current month. For months other then the current month...
thanks() takes two optional arguments. Those arguments are epoch values for the beginning and end of a different month.
Example 1: For stats from two months ago, do this:
Example 2: For stats one month ago:

2) vbSEO is optional. See instructions for how to get vbSEO'ized member urls.
3) Abe's Post Thank You Hack. You may download it here: [AJAX] Post Thank You Hack
4) The page you use this on needs to have a php extension or if it's html, parse it as php (you can set this in htaccess)
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
1) Open thanks1-02.php and fill in variables under "FILL IN STUFF BELOW, mk?"
2) Upload thanks1-02.php to your site (same directory where your top thank earner page will be)
3) On the stats page, add the following somewhere before the stats and change first two variables if you'd like:
PHP Code:
<?php
// change to true if you wish to use either of the following ...
$vbseo_urls = false;
$cached_technique = false;
if ($cached_technique)
{
require 'Cache/DB.php';
}
if ($vbseo_urls)
{
include_once "forum/includes/functions_vbseo.php";
}
require "thanks1-02.php";
?>
PHP Code:
<?php
// NOTE: "$thisMonth" variable should be different for each table you're making (each instance of thanks class)
$thisMonth = new thanks($start_epoch,$end_epoch);
/*
$start_epoch (optional): Epoch timestamp of time for earliest thanks (beginning of month usually). Defaults to beginning of current month.
$end_epoch (optional): Epoch timestamp of time for latest thanks (end of month usually). Defaults to end of current month.
*/
$thisMonth->grab_n_sort($string,$vbseo_url,$cached_technique);
/*
$string (required): Any variable name in form of a string (should be different for each table)
*/
$thisMonth->print_chart($top_x,$table_summary);
/*
$top_x: is top x thanks earners to show in number format
$table_summary: for the table's summary attribute
*/
?>
thanks() takes two optional arguments. Those arguments are epoch values for the beginning and end of a different month.
Example 1: For stats from two months ago, do this:
PHP Code:
$start_epoch = mktime(0, 0, 0, (date(m)-2), 1, date(Y)); // epoch for beginning of month
$end_epoch = mktime(23, 59, 0, (date(m)-1), 0, date(Y)); // epoch for end of month
$twoMonthsAgo = new thanks($start_epoch,$end_epoch);
PHP Code:
$start_epoch = mktime(0, 0, 0, (date(m)-1), 1, date(Y)); // beginning of month epoch ex. 01/01/07 12:00 AM
$end_epoch = mktime(23, 59, 0, (date(m)), 0, date(Y)); // end of month epoch ex. 01/31/07 11:59 PM
$oneMonthAgo = new thanks($start_epoch,$end_epoch);
