Future feature request--the ability to limit the number of trending items per forum. One board I manage has one forum where there is about 5x the activity of the others, so those threads would dominate the listing. If we could set a limit of maybe three or four threads for each forum it would help remove that bias and give more visibility to the other forums. (I currently have had to create separate trending widgets for each forum...and that's using an add-on, not the built-in XF widgets.)

I understand your frustration but that is a huge amount of work. If you wish to continue this adoption give me a DM
