I actually like a post counter as maybe I'm a little lazy.

It's good to be lazy sometime, but count post is the most important when you already have a VPS.

The other way to count your post for the month is View your profile > Activity > Find All Posts

True, but one has to click there first and then count them.  Have to also figure out whether all of the stats are legit ones, i.e. I still have to learn whether there are threads that are not eligible for post stats - like in the off topic section.  Are they counted?

In the meanwhile, any news about the availability of a post counter script?

Be reminded that this traditional method does not work quite well for this forum, especially if you count the post number when you already logged in. It does work better for another forum freevps.us though. It is mainly because only public posts are counted by our post counter. For example, posts on all private sub-forums are not counted by this forum, but are still counted on freevps (as far as I know of).

We have to do any good alternate for post counter script. many many days ago i suggest that monthly post count will also be shown at every post of member underneath there total post and threads in mini profile. so its looks like
Posts: 200
Threads: 50
Monthly Posts: 15 ( shown Red if under 20 and green if above 20)
Reputation : 5
Holder of: VPS xx
Credits: $500

It would be brilliant if you could create a plugin for it, but I can only imagine what hard work that would mean as I'm sure they must have tried it at FreeVPS as well and it never got off the ground.  It's not as simple to create it as it looks when one actually sits down to put it together - like if it had been that simple someone would have created a plugin like that a long time ago.  If you could do it though it would be something that could be turned into a myBB plugin and quite a number of Forums would be indebted to you for creating it.

It's convenient to have a post counter since sometimes you just need to make sure you have at least posted the required amount of posts for this month and you don't want to go back and manually count them one by one, which takes time to do so. I like having a post counter just because of that. But it's not really good if your just posting enough to cover the month and get the month over with since doing stuff under obligation are always not done very well as they look rushed and probably spammy too. Thanks for getting a post counter up and working!!!

This post counter is good. I think it would be better if admins put amount of posts done per week under our credits.

@TrK, @Dynamo and @"Hidden Refuge" Thanks helping me regarding issue with PiratesHosting's post counter script.

I have found the error when i tried fresh script downloading from HMR's github.

Error is:

[30-Oct-2018 12:07:49 UTC] PHP Warning:  date(): It is not safe to rely on the system's timezone settings. You are *required* to use the date.timezone setting or the date_default_timezone_set() function. In case you used any of those methods and you are still getting this warning, you most likely misspelled the timezone identifier. We selected the timezone 'UTC' for now, but please set date.timezone to select your timezone. in /home/pirates/public_html/forum/postcounter/MyBBPostCounter-master/img.php on line 79

Line #79 code on img.php is:

Code: (Select All)

if (substr($post->plaintext, 0, 3) === 'Yes' or substr($post->plaintext, 0, 3) === 'Tod' or substr($post->plaintext, 0, 3) === 'Les' or substr($post->plaintext, 3, 3) === 'min' or substr($post->plaintext, 2, 3) === 'min' or substr($post->plaintext, 2, 3) === 'hou' or substr($post->plaintext, 3, 3) === 'hou' or substr($post->plaintext, 0, 3) === date("m-") && substr($post->plaintext, 5, 5) === date("-Y")) {
                    $numberofpoststhismonth++;
         }

What's the problem in line #79 ? it fresh's script code i didn't even touch anything except changing mybb forum url changing.
