I will be looking into this this weekend on a couple other sites. I am unable to reproduce it on any site I have tried, so it seems to be something very site specific.

spacy, you were missing code from your copy of the block, but even after I added it, it improved it some but still is not showing them. At this point I would recommend that you turn off all your blocks and see if it works. If it does, then start turning your blocks back on, one by one, to see which one may be causing conflict.

Spacy and Stang - Your problem is fixed. Apparently this setting, when empty, needs to be "''" instead of "", at least in your version of MySQL. So, I changed it from
$skipTopPostersUserNames = ""; // use a comma separated list with each name in single quotes, like 'user1','user2'.
TO
$skipTopPostersUserNames = "''"; // use a comma separated list with each name in single quotes, like 'user1','user2'.

Spacy, you were still missing several lines of code so I don't know if you had been deleting code in an attempt to fix your problem or not. I will modify the d/l to hopefully avoid this happening to someone else.

For calrification, that is "''" - DoubleQuote SingleQuote SingleQuote DoubleQuote. Just as if you had
$skipTopPostersUserNames = "'user1'";
and you just remove the user1, you are left with
$skipTopPostersUserNames = "''";

Thats correct. I changed something because the original block wasnt working.

You made a great job by fixing it that quick, thanks a lot...

I had the same problem, Raven. No top posters. But adding the '' to $skipTopPostersUserNames fixed it. Thanks!

well i tried both adding a name in there and the """, also went through all the blocks and neither fixes it here. any other ideas?

Are you using double quote or two single quotes in your edit? You need to use double-quote, single,single, double-quote = " '' ''

Where can I get this "Top-Posters" block? I downloaded on but I think it is for cpgnuke and just gives me "There is no content for this block". Sad

Hint: Note the name of the forum? Raven's Collapsing Forums Block
