Hey. I was wondering if there’s any way to allow all users to see users post_count when using the API call /users/{username}.json without having to modify the git repo? Is there something like a setting or plugin for this?

It’s in https://meta.discourse.org/u/wille/summary.json [image]

You can retreive it from https://meta.discourse.org/u/Wille.json under "post_count":0 Your topic count is 1.

Sure, that works when looking up the profile of ones own user, but I would like the post_count to be public to everyone, preferably even to anonymous browsers. If I look up https://meta.discourse.org/u/Codinghorror.json there’s no post_count there, just the same as with https://meta.discourse.org/u…

Bump, not just for seeing post_count but being able to configure the API. Possible? Edit: Never mind, may have found it under Settings → User → public user custom fields Edit2: Never mind the never mind, adding ‘post_count’ there didn’t help. Is there some kind of syntax here like user@user_fields…

Appreciate it a lot! Is there any rhyme or reason to the API so I know where to look next time for something in the future? I can’t find any mentions of summary.json in the API docs for instance.
