Overall stats ranking

1.3k · October 8, 2003

It's fun to watch how many people are signing up for the Keenpeople.com stats tracking by watching how far my ranking falls between each time I come to the forum.

I think I started out as something like #90 overall, as of this writing I'm down to #165. Which is still pretty high for a paltry 107 finds.

Come on people, let's see how low we can get my overall ranking!

Yeah, I'm waiting for someone to come in and bump me out of the top spot.

I started at #1. Now I'm #3...out of 3.

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I-

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference.

Because now I am Lost.

I like the cool little icon thingies next to the names of the 'online' users. Just noticed that today.

Try this:

Note: You might need to delete the carriage return I inserted between the php? and userid to avoid having the line run off the screen.

Cool. I'm number one in my state! At least until others start using the stat generator.

October 8, 2003

OK. I'm not getting this. How do I get the little stat thing to show in my posts?

5.3k · October 8, 2003

Copy and paste the UBBcode, not the HTML

October 8, 2003

Here's another stab at it

OK, obviously I don't know what I'm doing. I don't know the difference between HTML and BBCode. Nor do I know where to copy it to. Do I have to paste it at the bottom of every post, or can I paste it into my signature line on in my preferences page?

Well do not feel bad, I do not know what I am doing either, and I know the difference between bbcode and html.

I can not get my stats image to come up in either anywhere!!

It took me forever to get it right, too.

You can post it into the signature field in "change your account" in BBCode. Make sure you are using the BBCode output that the page generates.

Also, if you add it to the signature on your profile page, you need to log out and close your browser, then log back in for the changes to take place.

October 8, 2003

Ok, I've copied the code

from the Keenpeople website into my signature line, logged out, shut down my browser...

Let's see if this works now.

October 8, 2003

I assume you need to use your keenpeople userid and not your geocaching.com userid. Am I correct on this??

October 8, 2003

Well, I guess that's progress

Now what am I doing wrong?!!!!!

October 8, 2003

Some reason it dosen't like my ID of Cat'N'Geo.

Can't contact site manager cause the built in contact generator gets a fatal error ID.

Okay, lets try again. I put the bbcode on my signature, so it should come up under my comments....crossing my fingers

October 8, 2003

Found 87/ hidden 5

Ranked 186 in overall.

Good posting! Not too shabby numbers either!

I hate numbers...

I did it.

Cat'N'Geo, you'll have to use the HTML equivalent for the ' character. & # 3 9 ; without the spaces

OK, I think I figure out what I was doing wrong. The KeenPeople site needs a little better instruction on just what it is you are supposed to be copying.

Test.

Well, there you go!

No doubt about it!

Thanks for the tips.

How is the UBB code generated?

October 8, 2003

Now if their stat page would auto update itself, this would be an ideal solution. You've got people opting in and its not stealing the bandwidth from this site.

I had the exact same problem. Send an email to rwmech @ k e e n p e o p l e . c o m and have him delete the "Cat'N'Geo" id and then register again as CatNGeo

What am I doing wrong. Built the thing on keenpeople, copied the entire UBB code, pasted into my signature. I just get the UBB showing up in the signature instead of translation into the image.

Help????

This is like not being able to give up on a cache you just can't find

If it doesn't work this time, I'M OUT!!!!

Actually, I'm pretty happy with a fully automatable "cheat-proof" ranking system.
