Buy Now Posts Per Day Goal 1.0.3

Posts Per Day Goal adds a notice to the top of your forum, which prompts the user groups of your choice that you have a goal of x posts per day. So, if you have a staff group, and want your forums total posts per day to be, lets say 20, you'll set the goal to 20, and the hook keeps a count of how many posts have been made, and how many are left to make.

The notice changes when the goal has been reached, from a red background to a green one, reinforcing the positive action of reaching the goal.

I developed this for my own forums, and displayed it only to my staff members, and it's encouraged posting to reach the goal. Looking over my logs, from the last 7 days, 90% of the time the goal of 15 posts is reached every day. Before the hook was installed I was getting daily post counts of 3, maximum of 7, so this has increased activity within my site by 50%! Please see screenshots for proof.


Main features:

• Include / Exclude Groups to Show to, so you can only show this notice to staff, or to guests, or to Moderators and Administrators..
• LIVE count of the posts made, and the posts needed to be made to reach the goal.
• Forum Exclusion. If you have an Off Topic or Forum Games forum, you can exclude them from the total count. Useful if you get a lot of posts in one area of the forum and want to promote activity others.
• Notice changes when goal is reached, counter keeps going, so you can be "10 over goal".
• Promotes Activity, and uses Positive Reinforcement techniques.

I have some features planned, including adding the amount of posts YOU have made, how you've contributed to the goal, amongst other more general statistics.
