I originally was going to post a question on how I would go about ranking a list of authors by the amount of post views from all of their posts combined. But I luckily found a solution here: https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/61194/list-users-with-the-most-total-posts-view/94859#94859 This is the code I'm using from that page, except I tweaked it a little to fetch post views from a plugin I use: <?php global $wpdb; $topuser = array(); // query all posts by each user $users = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT ID FROM $wpdb->users ORDER BY ID"); foreach ( $users as $user ) { $query = get_posts( array('author' => $user->ID, 'posts_per_page' => '10000000000')); $counter = 0; // get each post of a user foreach ( $query as $post ){ $views = absint( get_post_views('normal') ); $counter += $views; } $topuser[] = array( 'id' => $user->ID, 'views' => $counter); wp_reset_query(); } // function to sort array based on views count function sortViews($a, $b) { return $b['views'] - $a['views']; } usort($topuser, 'sortViews'); // sort the array $output = array_slice($topuser, 0, 10); // slice the array by limit 3 // output the result: user, total postview count, latest post foreach ($output as $user){ $profile = get_userdata($user['id']); $query = get_posts( array('author' => $user['id'], 'numberposts' => 1 )); echo '<p>' . $profile->user_nicename .' ('. $user['views'] .')</p>'; foreach ( $query as $post ){ echo '<a href="' . $post->post_name . '">' . $post->post_title . '</a>'; echo get_post_meta($post->ID, get_post_views('normal'), true); } } ?> Now I would like to take this solution a step further towards my vision when first coming up with the idea. I want to show the specific rank (position in the list) of each user on their buddypress profile page. I would paste this code in member-header.php Example: It would say something like "User Rank: 15", meaning that this user shows up as the 15th result when executing the above query (of course I would change the number from 10 to more which is why that would be possible). Hope you guys can help out. Thanks in advance :)
