Hi all,
I have been asked if I can create a feature to promote the customers most 'popular' topics.
If I can create an RSS feed I can then display this however they want.
Is there a way I can create a feed that sorts by hits within the last 30days?
eg.
Topic 1 - 12,000 hits - 3 days ago
Topic 2 - 10,000 hits - today
Topic 3 - 9,000 hits - 1 week ago
I obviously don't want to include the hits or dates, just an example of the order I want to achieve.
Thanks as usual for any help.

Creating an RSS feed is possible of course but does require php coding and MySQL queries... We do have a 'Hot Topics' template tag that might come close to what you are looking for - al least worth a look at before doing that I would have thought:

Hi thanks for the reply, I will take a look. I'm having issues again gaining access to the codex. You fixed it for me last time by resetting something?
"We’re sorry, but our records show that your subscription has expired or has been cancelled.
To re-gain access to the site you’ll need to re-subscribe."

Please try now.
We are actually right in the middle of a project to solve this problem once and for all!

Looking through the codex, this looks like exactly what I need. Thanks

I would like to add this to the page if possible as opposed to the template, is there any way to add filters with the shortcode?
eg. code/ ([)sp_hot_topics('showCount=0&showForum=0&textHotness=Rating&limit=2')(]) /code

Well - I believe all of the attributes that are available for the template tag are also available for the shortcode (sp_hot_topics).
I am not that familiar with shortcodes myself but is that how you usually pass the attributes?
