@smithj, can you please try this..

Most Liked Members

In your mini-profile template, you will need to wrap the liked number with a classed tag, such as <span class="member_likes L$[user.id]">$[user.likes]</span> so that the plugin can target and retrieve the current likes for that member.

You will also need to add <div id="most_liked"></div> to your forum wrapper template to display the list(s).

Hopefully it all works as intended, but let me know if not and I'll try to fix it.

I assume you have added the classes to the mini-profile and the forum wrapper? If so, can you please leave a link to a guest friendly thread where I can take a look.

Thanks.

The plugin cannot find the poster information because you have omitted the class and title in the user link in the mini-profile. For the code to know what to look for the user link needs the class "user_$[user.id]" and the title "@$[user.username]".

Hopefully, adding the class and title will allow the plugin to work.

What do you mean by title?

What do you mean by title?

'Title' is an attribute given to an element that creates a tooltip when the mouse hovers over the cell, in the case of the member link it contains the user's username, ProBoards also uses this information to autofill the reply area with the username when you hold CTRL and ALT together when you click a member link.

If you use $[user] to add the member link in your mini-profile, the necessary attributes are added automatically, but if for whatever reason you'd rather create your own link you'll need to use <a href="$[user.href]" class="user-$[user.id]" title="@$[user.username]">$[user.name]</a> to add the memberlink with the needed attributes instead.

So can you tell me just all the html code (not JS) I should put into my templates please?

This part here:


<a href="$[user.href]" class="user-$[user.id]" title="@$[user.username]">$[user.name]</a>


IS HTML and can be placed in your template where you want it to show. Things like $[user.href] are template variables and cannot be used in JS. What Todge gave you was a method to grab values from template variables to create a link.

- I believe the $[user.href] returns the link to the user's profile page (feel free to correct me if I'm wrong on that one, Todge).
- The $[user.id] returns the user's ID number (yours, @smithj, would return 253222 here on support).
- The $[user.username] returns the user's username (the one you use to @ tag with).
- The $[user.name] returns the user's display name.

So, using you as an example, @smithj, that link run within a template that accepts all of those variables would return a link like this:


<a href="http://support.proboards.com/user/253222" class="user-253222" title="@smithj">Jonathan</a>


with the word Jonathan as the clickable link.

And <a href="$[user.href]" class="user-$[user.id]" title="@$[user.username]">$[user.name]</a>is all I need to put into my code other than a script?

Yup, just use that code snippet to display te member's name in your mini-profile template.

I tried this in another forum and the former forum. galleries.boards.net/ doesn't work.

You cannot like your own posts. While you can click the like button, and the post will say that you liked it, your 'likes count' is not affected and so is not included in the plugin's count either. The only way to test this plugin is to like a post made by another member.
