# Trending & Leaderboards

Trending and Leaderboards surface the most active content and members.

## Trending Content

The **Trending** view highlights recent threads that are gaining traction. It ranks threads by activity (replies and views) balanced against how recent they are, looking back over the last couple of weeks, so fresh, lively threads rise to the top.

Trending appears as the **Trending** tab on the feed page and as a trending widget in the sidebar on desktop. It refreshes frequently through the day.

## Leaderboard

The **Leaderboard** ranks members by the credits they have earned. Open it from the **Leaderboard** link in the navigation.

You can view it for three time windows:

| Period | Covers |
|--------|--------|
| **This week** | The last 7 days |
| **This month** | The last 30 days |
| **All time** | Everything since the community started |

The board shows the top 25 credit earners for the period you pick, with their avatar, username, and total.

## Who's Online

The **Who's Online** page shows members active recently. A member counts as online if they have been active in the last 15 minutes.

You control whether you appear in **Settings → Privacy → Show Online Status**.

## Community Stats

The community stats widget on the forum index shows aggregate numbers:

- Total members.
- Total threads.
- Total posts.
- The newest member, with a link to their profile.
