How to list most liked posts?

How to list most liked posts within a single forum topic?

Do you mean like how Reddit puts the top answers at the top of the thread or something? I don’t think that’s an option on a standard browser, unless it’s something buried in the app.

I may be proven wrong though, I’ve just never seen it.

i.e. go to some “feature request” topic and list all the replies sorted by the count of likes

I’m not sure what exactly it does but there is a “summarize this topic” option under the first post of a long thread that seems to somehow identify posts deemed important? Not sure. Doesn’t seem to filter by likes though.

I believe you can do it with the Discourse search options syntax e.g.

in:"The Syntakt Feature Request Thread" order:likes

It seems in the search, topic searches are assigned topic numbers, do you need to enter the actual thread name in quotes to make it work? Do you also need to add the topic numbers well?

edit: I found it, you can only view the results as a search. you have to put the thread name in quotes, ignore the topic id number and choose “most liked” or use the order command Brian gave (order:likes does the same thing) and it delivers the search results by most liked posts.

thanks, works better than expected :smiley:

Probably. Which would be amazing considering some people have been on here since 2013 or even earlier. Not sure when the new iteration of the forum replaced Elektron-users or whatever it was called before then. Ess must have some enviable stats too

this is like when a popular new song comes out and people can’t stop listening to it, then all of a sudden your grandmother wants to know if you’ve heard the elektronauts top 5 list song and to teach her the fucking dance.

I can teach her to fuck, but she’s on her own with the dancing…

it would be pointless anyway. Many of the best comments are simply late to the conversation and get no attention

this should be your album liner note.
