TD Word Count v0.41 plugin now available with new author stats

TD Scripts Word Count v0.4 New feature: Multi-author published post and word stats by month.

I participate to a group blog and needed to compile published post/word stats each month for the group, thus the new version of TD Word Count includes posts stats by author by month.

See what month you posted the most words. If you are a single author blog there will still be some benefit as you can drill down to your word count stats by month as well as individual posts made during months.

If you have a lot of authors contributing to your blog, say over 25, with a large number of posts then this plugin isn’t for your group. It is not optimized for larger groups, but should work very well for groups from 2-15 with hundreds to thousands of posts. If larger groups would like to use a plugin like this then leave me a message below and I’ll work on a different version that is for groups over 25 people.

Technical details
This plugin uses two database queries whenever posts are edited or published.

Download
You can download v0.41 on the TD Word Count plugin page.

Update 5:45pm PST: v0.41 replaces v0.40 to fix a small bug with new authors having no published posts (thanks Lestat)

    Hi Charlotte - did you do as the install instructions said and edit or add a new post first to initialize the script? The variables will all be empty until you do that.

    Nice one, I had been searching for something like this. (More complete than wordcount plugin, see andersdrengen.dk & which is not compatible with WP 2.1)

    Is it possible to include code (for example into a side bar) to display total published words from x number of posts?
    Thanks in advance
