Old Customizations - Block Ideas

Hey all,

Do you got any ideas for new blocks? Or you made a cool other block? Post them here!
Would be cool if we have a topic full of additional customized blocks you can download directly from here!

I would like a few new blocks (if possible of course!):
- Top Topics (month / year / all categories or just 1) based on reactions
- Top Topics (month / year / all categories or just 1) based on views
- Top Topics (day / month / year) with the most "thank you's "
- Top Rated Topics (month / year)
- Top Games from activity mod
- Top Profiles (month / year) based on profile views

(Could someone make 1, or maybe make all of them?)

Is there someone who can help me out with this?
If someone could make a block with the TOP 10 most read topics in the current month, for example:
- Haiti (200 views)
- Michael Jackson (100 views)

If someone shows me, I can figure out how to make a block for a year and a day (I hope lol).

Also, I would like to have an easy register block!

Could someone help me out with this? I would be very thankful!

PS: if nobody wants to do this for free, I am willing to pay a small amount...!

When a user view a topic, it isn't stored the time so you can't create a block to show the topics with the most views in a month.

Thanks are stored in a separate table, so you can have the date there and you could create a block for thanks in a subperiod of time.

You should try to be a bit more descriptive with what you would like to have in each block.

A list like this will be very useful:
  • Topics with more Thanks this month: a block listing the top X topics with the more thanks received during the current month (or in the last 30 days).
  • ...


Thanks

Thank you for the response!

Here comes the description!
Block 1: Populair block, based on thanks this day/ month/ year/ all time (I dont mind, I would like to have them all!)
A decreasing simple list with the top X topics that received the most # of thanks in current day/month/year/alltime.

Block 2: Highest rating block, based on the # ratings all time. A decreasing simple list with the Top X rated topics (number of votes and/ or highest average. I dont mind!)

Block 3: Top Games block: A top X list of most played games in a day, month or year. Alltime is also fine!

Block 4: A block summing up a simple list of most played games this day/month/year! Alltime again is also fine!


I have seen very good examples in other websites, it looks like this:

Title: Topics which are most......
Tabbed menu: [ READ ] [ THANKED ] [ REACTIONS ]

[ Today: ]
- Topic 1
- Topic 2
- Topic 3
- Topic 4

[ This Month: ]
- Topic 1
- Topic 2
- Topic 3
- Topic 4


[ This year: ]
- Topic 1
- Topic 2
- Topic 3
- Topic 4

And not only for Topics, but also for Games and for Photo Album!

I hope I made my wish clear... thanks in advance!

Yes, things are clearer now, I only can't understand the difference between block 3 and 4.

First two blocks can be done in about 1 hour of coding each, the others I need to check the games tables.
