Topic: post count for specific user

Hi, I know this may sound like a strange request, but how would I extract the post count of just one user from the forum database?
The user id is 4, and so I believe that means the post count for that user is stored in the 4th row of "num_posts", but I need to know how to use php to echo this post count value onto one of the forum pages. Any help would be appreciated.

Re: post count for specific user

It's not strange wink
You would select the num_posts column from the users table where the user ID is 4

Re: post count for specific user

Hey, thanks for the quick reply. Unfortunately it's still not working, although it's not giving my any syntax errors.

edit:
ok, I may have made some progress, but right now it still doesn't work:

$userid=4;
$query = $db->query('SELECT num_posts FROM '.$db->prefix.'users WHERE id='.$userid);
$query = $db->result($query);
echo $query;

I'm trying to put this code on viewtopic.php, but only the first post in a topic shows up..

Re: post count for specific user

Where in viewtopic.php are you placing the code?

Re: post count for specific user

Basically what I'm trying to do is have the group "Guest" have a post count, so whenever a guest posts, it increments the post count +1 of a user I made specifically for this purpose, and this user's ID is 4 (this part is already working). Therefore, whenever a guest posts, I want this Guest post count to appear under the guest, so I placed the code here in viewtopic.php:

<?php
$userid=4;
$query = $db->query('SELECT num_posts FROM '.$db->prefix.'users WHERE id='.$userid);
$guestPosts = $db->result($query);

//if poster is a guest
if($user_title == $lang_common['Guest'])
{
echo ' (Posts: '.$guestPosts.')';
}

//if poster is a member
else
{
echo ' (Posts: '.$cur_post['num_posts'].')';
}
?>

So, I put the code above where the post count is echo'd in viewtopic.php, but it doesn't display the page correctly..

Re: post count for specific user

Post your viewtopic.php file.

Re: post count for specific user

Just change this line:

$result = $db->query('SELECT u.email, u.title, u.url, u.location, u.use_avatar, u.signature, u.email_setting, u.num_posts, u.registered, u.admin_note, p.id, p.poster AS username, p.poster_id, p.poster_ip, p.poster_email, p.message, p.hide_smilies, p.posted, p.edited, p.edited_by, g.g_id, g.g_user_title, o.user_id AS is_online FROM '.$db->prefix.'posts AS p INNER JOIN '.$db->prefix.'users AS u ON u.id=p.poster_id INNER JOIN '.$db->prefix.'groups AS g ON g.g_id=u.group_id LEFT JOIN '.$db->prefix.'online AS o ON (o.user_id=u.id AND o.user_id!=1 AND o.idle=0) WHERE p.topic_id='.$id.' ORDER BY p.id LIMIT '.$start_from.','.$pun_user['disp_posts'], true) or error('Unable to fetch post info', __FILE__, __LINE__, $db->error());

to:

$result = $db->query('SELECT u.email, u.title, u.url, u.location, u.use_avatar, u.signature, u.email_setting, u.num_posts, u.registered, u.admin_note, p.id, p.poster AS username, p.poster_id, p.poster_ip, p.poster_email, p.message, p.hide_smilies, p.posted, p.edited, p.edited_by, g.g_id, g.g_user_title, o.user_id AS is_online FROM '.$db->prefix.'posts AS p INNER JOIN '.$db->prefix.'users AS u ON u.id=p.poster_id INNER JOIN '.$db->prefix.'groups AS g ON g.g_id=u.group_id LEFT JOIN '.$db->prefix.'online AS o ON (o.user_id=u.id AND o.idle=0) WHERE p.topic_id='.$id.' ORDER BY p.id LIMIT '.$start_from.','.$pun_user['disp_posts'], true) or error('Unable to fetch post info', __FILE__, __LINE__, $db->error());

and remove that new code you've added. That should pull up and display the guest post count too, as far as I know, unless something else affects the guest user display settings too.

Re: post count for specific user

Hmmm, nope it didn't work, but thanks.

I replaced all my previous code with just
echo ' (Posts: '.$cur_post['num_posts'].')';
and now the page displays correctly, but the guest posts displays the number 0 when the post count of user ID 4 (the "guest" account) is not 0.
