Hi guys, newbie here, but very excited to start developing. A couple things to preface: when I say newbie, I mean that I have programmed before but I don’t know Ruby, Javascript, or SQL. I’m working on remedying that, but any particular advice with this project would be helpful! Anyway, for the forum I’m working on, I would like to be able to display the average response time somewhere on the homepage of the forum. I would like to include several different averages, like average response over last hour, over last week, and over the lifetime of the forum. I figured this plugin would be somehow related to this, but is there a way for me to capture the data from the query I write to display openly on the forum? Or would I have to write my own plugin for that? Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I am just starting with discourse development so there’s a lot I’m learning all once here. Thanks! --- _[View the full topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/displaying-average-response-time/131265)._
