Hi everyone, this is my first post here. I’m wondering how the [Blizzard forum](https://us.forums.blizzard.com/en/blizzard/t/helltide-doesnt-work-not-getting-exp/48411) shows the total post count of a user besides their name.

I’ve implemented something similar in my forum by using the Discourse API system like below

But I believe there are better ways of doing this. I’m also planning to show the user badge etc. Can anyone help me with this? Thank you.
