Please make sure to create a backup and test the update on a staging site before applying it to production, to ensure that your existing modifications or add-ons do not conflict with the update.
1.1.3 Patch Level 1:
- Added option to change the value distribution rounding step used for percentile calculation. Larger values reduce precision but improve performance. Lower value = more precise results.
- Added percentage display format option for previous year value difference
- Fix: show 100% percentile only for top rank users
1.1.3:
- Changed counting logic for “Active users” and “Thread views” statistics
- Changed statistic value column type to BIGINT to support larger values
- Added a separate permission to view statistics for past years
- Added an option to limit the number of “popular” reactions shown in statistics
- Added an option to rebuild only retroactive statistics
- Added separate option to change display formatting for previous year difference value (raw, number with separators, or short number like 1K)
- Added option to change displayed users limit in leaderboards
The counting logic for Thread views and Active users has been changed to avoid misleading year-to-year comparisons.
Thread views are now counted for all threads created in the selected year and earlier, instead of only threads created within that year. Active users now include all users who were active during the selected year and registered in that year or earlier.
Rebuilding "thread views" and "user activity" statistics for past years will never fully reflect real historical activity, because XenForo does not maintain a permanent log of thread views or user activity.
