Features

The leaderboard information is fetched for a period of a year and sorted by likes received by default. You can change this along with other options from the theme settings page.

:information_source: The user directory must be enabled for the Top Contributors list to be populated. If your list is blank, search enable user directory in your admin settings to make sure it’s enabled.

:information_source: The sidebar will only be visible when the browser is 767px or wider (most tablets and monitors).

For this component we have only two options for “Order By” i.e, likes_given and likes_received
can we have other options added like No. of Posts answered / resolved ?

is that possible, please confirm ?

up vote! this would help incentives people to post.

I installed this on my website and it didn’t adjust to the screen automatically, it creates a horizontal scrollbar as if it didn’t fit on the screen, does anyone know why?

@meghna - thank you for a great theme component!

Hi - some thoughts on how it could be tweaked to improve it

  1. It currently shows on category and tag home pages - it would be great if the leaderboard would re-calibrate to show the top contributors in that particular category or tag?

  2. if you were able to configure it to show top contributors in the last week, or top contributors in the last month, this would give a much better view of who the top contributors actually are at “the moment” rather than just cumulatively since the discourse instance was installed (this time period setting could also apply to the category/tag top contributors above too).

I completely agree with Robin! I would be thrilled if this were an option, as it gets asked about on my site. I’ve commented about this in another thread

Good afternoon, I installed this component on the site today and does not show the top contributors, can anyone help?

Hello Gabriel :wave:

Have you attached it to a theme?

Hello, yes

That screenshot is not the same theme component. :slight_smile:

I’m from Brazil, I think the translation didn’t have the same name
