Check [plugin webpage](http://justmyecho.com/2010/07/top-contributors-plugin-wordpress/) for details on the update. * List your top commenters or authors with the option to display their Gravatar, and several other options. * Choose from 2 formats of the widget, with complete control of styles via css. * Exclude users from the list by email address. * The list uses a cache system for improved performance. List updates only when a post or comment is added, or options updated. #### Extra Feature * Add a special Icon next to each of your Top Commenter’s name in their comments to give them a little special recognition for being a regular contributor. Support and Feature request forum at http://justmyecho.com/forums/ ## Screenshots * [[ * The 2 formats to display top commenters ## Installation 1. Download and extract top-contributors.zip file. 2. Upload the folder containing the Plugin files to your WordPress Plugins folder ( usually ../wp-content/plugins/ folder). 3. Activate the Plugin via the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress. 4. Go to “Settings > Top Contributors” page to set your options and add the widget. If you’re upgrading from a previous version, make sure to back up any customizations to “top-contributors/css/tooltip.css” file to prevent loss of custom formatting. ## FAQ The list says “No Commenters” now, but was working before If you’re using the 3rd Time limit option “Only This week, month, year”. The comment count ‘resets’ at the start of each interval. So the start of each week/month/year the list will reset to 0. If you want a continuous list of the last 7 days, use “ The Last 7 days” instead. ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/a8570f8ac2e75c2b1bbdf903ffc8dd2d707f910540832604d2840b5ae2eb987d? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[good](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/good-2111/)󠁿 [navid00](https://profiles.wordpress.org/navid00/) February 7, 2017 Please update This is a great plugin [ Read all 1 review ](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/top-contributors/reviews/) ## Contributors & Developers “Top Contributors” is open source software.
