XenForo makes member pages more fun by showing special blocks instead of just a boring list of people who signed up. These blocks can show the top members for different things. They might display who wrote the most messages or who helped solve the most problems. The XenForo admin creates these blocks from the Admin control panel under Users and Member statistics. They pick Add member stat or change one that already exists. They give each block a name people see and a special key that only the XenForo system uses to keep track of it. XenForo lets them pick which members appear in the block by setting rules about who can be included.

The XenForo system decides which members show up based on how the admin sorts them and how many people they want to include. For example, the admin can make XenForo list the ten people who posted the most by choosing Messages for the sort and picking Descending order. Then they set the User limit to ten. XenForo can create more complicated statistics blocks if someone knows how to write special computer code called PHP callbacks. This gives XenForo even more ways to search and filter members than what appears on the screen. The admin can create as many different statistics blocks as they want on their XenForo site. Everyone visiting the forum sees these blocks in the Notable members section of the community.
