dramas of my life

i had a hard time figuring out on how to get my top entrecard droppers for the month. I have seen a lot of blogs who have been thanking those who have dropped their cards in their blog for the month and the number of times they have dropped their card.

I was thinking, it would be impossible for this bloggers to track their top droppers manually. Hello! That would take a lot of time really. And I search google but somehow all the pages that where indexed have not given me an answer. I was thinking there might have been some kind of plugin for this but on the other hand its not only wordpress blog but also blogspot blog that have this every month.

So, I researched until I found the solution.

As you can see, on my sidebar both for these and my other blog you can see a widget (in wordpress) or page element (in blogger) of my blogs recent five entercard droppers, right ? So how can you have this in your blog. Simple.

Logon to your Entrecard account. And get the RSS feed. The RSS feed can be seen on your dashboard, right beside the last id of one of your Entercard droppers. Click the icon for the feed. Your are now on the feed. Copy the url and then paste it to your widget or page element. Of course, the additional widget or page element will have to be an RSS.

Now for your TOP ENTRECARD DROPPERS for the MONTH. This isn’t done through a widget. It is provided by Entrecard but since most of us do just go to our DASHBOARD and DROPS INBOX we fail to see this one. For your Entrecard Droppers, once you are on your summary window, scroll down until you’ve reach your QUICKSTATS table. And then clicked more stats. Upon arriving to your statistics window scroll down until you see a table. That table consist of your top entrecard droppers for the month. Either you copy and paste the table or the rss feed. Easy right ?

Just in case you are still confused, drop me a line and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can. Oh and if you have time you might want to check the wine of the month clubs
