For all authors:
<?php
global $wpdb;
$where = 'WHERE comment_approved = 1 AND user_id <> 0';
$comment_counts = (array) $wpdb->get_results("
SELECT user_id, COUNT( * ) AS total
FROM {$wpdb->comments}
{$where}
GROUP BY user_id
", object);
foreach ( $comment_counts as $count ) {
$user = get_userdata($count->user_id);
$post_count = get_usernumposts($user->ID);
echo '<p>User ' . $user->display_name . ' post count is ' . $post_count .', comment count is ' . $count->total . '</p>';
}
?>
Thanks but I want it for individual users. Like in their mini bio below every post they made.
Okay, this need to be in a post loop or you need change $user_id value
<?php
global $wpdb;
$user_id = $post->post_author; //change this if not in a std post loop
$where = 'WHERE comment_approved = 1 AND user_id = ' . $user_id ;
$comment_count = $wpdb->get_var(
"SELECT COUNT( * ) AS total
FROM {$wpdb->comments}
{$where}
");
$user = get_userdata($user_id);
$post_count = get_usernumposts($user->ID);
echo '<p>User ' . $user->display_name . ' post count is ' . $post_count .', comment count is ' . $comment_count . '</p>';
?>
The code given for all authors doesnt seem to work, its only showing 2 of 3 arthors.
Thanks for providing this code! The $wpdb functions are bewildering to me, even though I know a little bit about SQL queries.
I am trying to use a variation of the code you posted here, MichaelH, to get a count of the number of “pending” posts the current user has. Only thing is, it’s not working. Can you see where I’m going wrong here?
global $wpdb;
$where = "WHERE post_status = 'pending' AND post_author = " . $user_id;
$post_count = $wpdb->get_var(
"SELECT COUNT (*) FROM $wpdb->posts $where");
$welcomemessage .= "<p>You currently have $post_count submissions pending.</p>";
Moving my question to a new topic.
