New Plugin: Newest Users v0.4 (updated)

Question

Hi, I created a new plugin that displays the newest users of your forum on a separate page.

You can access the page with: yourq2asite.com/newusers

 

Get it here: https://github.com/echteinfachtv/q2a-newest-users-page

It is a very early version, there might be bugs. Your feedback is appreciated.

v0.2:
- page lists user registration, username + user's website (helps to find spam)
- page can be blocked from public, see qa-new-users-page.php and uncomment after '// return if not admin'

v0.3:
- page lists users' emails as well
- more language strings added
- shows last 100 users (instead of users of x last days)

Updated to v0.4: Lists numbers of answers, questions, and comments of new users.

Answer 1

it would be great if you could make a widget for this plugin, so you can add it to the sidebar. something like "welcome to our new member: USERNAME"

Answer 2

This looks good. An option to limit the page to certain user types would be good. Personally I wouldn't really want everyone on the site seeing the page but it's useful for moderators/admins to keep an eye on new accounts (check for spam etc).

Comments

as you surely know, in qa-new-users-page.php just add in the beginning of function process_request:

// return if not admin!
$level=qa_get_logged_in_level();
if ($level < QA_USER_LEVEL_ADMIN) {
    $qa_content['custom0']='<div>Access denied</div>';
    return $qa_content;
}

Hi Scott, I updated the plugin to v0.2 which lists the website of the users as well. This will help us to better control spammers! update: https://github.com/echteinfachtv/q2a-newest-users-page
