Active users for specific months
The original poster, alehandrof, sought to find the number of active users in April 2016 and September 2016, defining active users as those who posted at least 1 topic or reply within the time period. After no initial response, Mittineague suggested the question wasn’t “dumb,” but rather a weekend delay. Mittineague then shared a helpful link to a meta post that provided a query to solve the problem. HAWK confirmed the query worked and used it for monthly reporting. alehandrof thanked both Mittineague and HAWK for their help, suggesting the post be highlighted for its usefulness. HAWK apologized for the difficulty in finding the solution and updated the related FeverBee topic.
I’m trying to find two pieces of data: How many active users* did my community have in the month of April 2016 and how many in September 2016.
* Active user = posted at least 1 topic or reply within the time period.
More details: I have Google Analytics hooked up. My community is private so all users are logged in.
I’ve read several forum posts here, as well as on the FeverBee forum, which indicate that this is possible, but I can’t figure out how.
Has no one answered because my question is dumb 
or because there is not way to find out this data 
?
My guess is not “dumb” but that the weekend happened.
Have you seen this post?
The query Mittineague references does the job perfectly. I use it for my monthly reporting.
That answer my question perfectly. Thanks to both @Mittineague & @HAWK!
Edit: you should really put a big bow on that post. This is super useful stuff!
No problem. FWIW I’ve updated the topic on FeverBee to reflect this – things shouldn’t be that hard to find (apologies).
