Purging points/leaderboards
Standard member
Trying to find a way to purge point totals/leaderboards
Is there a way either on the admin panel or on the back end to purge the leaderboards/point totals? Basically the scheme we're looking to do is to have a weekly leaderboard that we can clear at the end of the week to see who can accumulate the most points in that week. We can use the reporting to export, but if I can find a way to do it on the leaderboard block that would be A+ either by adjusting the leaderboard to show points accumulated that week rather than a running total snapshot or just purging points entirely so they start fresh each week (I can create a scheduled task to run if it's a database thing).

It's not currently a feature I'm afraid. We have had it on the tracker for a while:
0000782: Allow leader-board to show snapshots of biggest earners in a period of time - Composr CMS feature tracker
The thing is that points are calculated on-the-fly, so to implement this we'd need to start recording points each week, or we'd need to switch to a model where points all individually audited with a timestamp.

- If my reply is too Vulcan or expressed too much in business-strategy terms, and not particularly personal, I apologise. As a company & project maintainer, time is very limited to me, so usually when I write a reply I try and make it generic advice to all readers. I'm also naturally a joined-up thinker, so I always express my thoughts in combined business and technical terms. I recognise not everyone likes that, don't let my Vulcan-thinking stop you enjoying Composr on fun personal projects.
- If my response can inspire a community tutorial, that's a great way of giving back to the project as a user.
