User Information and Stats

A great feature would be the addition of user stats. For example...

Artist Pages, Album Pages, and Song Pages should show who uploaded the album, songs, or added the artist. Clicking on a user's username should go to a sortable page that shows all the music he or she added to the collection.

Also, certain stats for each user should be kept...
Total Songs Uploaded
Total Albums Uploaded
Total Artists Added

    Well as I look deeper... I see using Community Builder is one way to show what albums the user uploaded. However, there should still be a userlink option for the album, song, and artist pages. Since the info is already there, I guess it is a matter of editing the template files to show the uploader. Is this possible?

    yes, the info is already there.
    and "yes", it's a matter of editing the layouts to show "this album was added by XXXX"...

    I believe you go along well editing code :)

    if that's useful to you, you must know that User's ID is store in varaible user_id

    for instance, in album page, it is:

    $this->album->user_id

    but of course you may need to perform some extra querys to retrieve user's name and such...!

    I am pretty clueless when it comes to php. I you could help me figure this out? What I would like is the user's username linked to their CB profile which looks like this... /index.php?option=com_comprofiler&task=userProfile&user=USERID

    I payed over $100 for the community version of the software. However there is still no way to see who uploaded each album. I do not know php so it is very difficult for me to add this to the template. I know it would be very easy for anyone with minor knowledge of php to add this manually to the album template. A little help here would be greatly appreciated.
