This plugin creates a “Hot” sorting criteria and builds a custom topic list based on the result of the following formula:
likes / ((hours since creation + 2) ^ gravity)
Things to note:
The default gravity multiplier is 1.5 but you can adjust this in the settings for the plugin.
You can add “hot” to the list of menu items to make it easier to access.
There is also the option to add ?order=hot to a URL to create your own links.
Once enabled, the hot rating is recalculated every 30 minutes so it will take a bit of time to take effect at first. If you want to accelerate this, you can log in to Sidekiq and manually trigger the HotRating job.
This work was graciously sponsored by @commonpawn and @Oskar. Kudos to them for making this happen.
The following topics lend more background to why this exists:
It adds a setting hot_topics_calc_period that lets you set the period (in minutes). Note that you’ll need to do a rebuild every time this setting is changed before it will take effect.
After some tests, i’m pretty sure that replies likes, are taken into account in the formula. I think it’ll be better and more logical, to only takes likes of the first post.
Yes. It does count likes on all posts. It’s beyond me on whether or not that’s a good way to do it. The formula is a copy from other models. @commonpawn and @Oskar, do either of you have a strong leaning here?
@joebuhlig if you have a bit time and if @commonpawn and @Oskar are ok, i can sponsorize this job, to add an option to take or not in account replies likes.
The plugin works well, but does it do the “x new posts. Click to refresh” live updating that is done on the core lists? It would be nice if it could (not so much to change the order of the posts, but to notify the users as to which posts have replies…)
Do you think Hot Topics could be made to support Feature Voting as well? Or would it be easier if Feature Voting just comes with its own concept of “Hot” sorting?
플러그인을 discourse의 plugins 폴더에 추가한 후 bundle exec rails server로 rails 서버를 시작했는데, 이 오류가 발생했습니다. 이런 오류를 유발한 것은 이 플러그인뿐입니다.

discourse를 처음 사용해 보는데, 제가 치명적인 실수를 하고 있는 건가요? 아니면 다른 분들도 같은 문제를 겪고 계신가요.
Ruby 2.6.1과 Rails 6.0.0을 사용 중이며, Github의 최신 버전 discourse를 사용하고 있습니다.
