Looking to gather data around this question:

 

Can you search for active users with at least 1 post and registered within the last 6 months?

 

I am trying to find out that for every 6 months of the new members joining, are they active and posting at least 1 time within the community. Right now, I can only uncover members all time rather than from members who are only newly registered during that time frame. Does anyone know a workaround or solution to this?

It’s not pretty, but it should work: 

  1. Build a custom User Role (in settings) for each 6 month timeframe
    1. You could automate this with a Zapier zap for going forward, if you wanted
      1. Trigger: New user registration
      2. Action: Add a custom role
      3. Maintenance: update the Zap with the new user role when you need to reset your 6 month interval
  2. Users Overview
    1. Filter by registration date
    2. Select all
    3. Bulk add that custom User Role you created
  3. Analytics > User Dashboard
    1. Filter by that customer User Role

The result should be the User Dashboard showing you only users in that 6 month timeframe (based on your custom role) and you’ll get: 

  • Total Users
  • New Registrations (should match total users)
  • Users with at least 1 post
    • the %
  • column chart of when they signed up
  • Filterable table to show top users by points, posts, etc

Upside of this approach is that you should be able to export the data to csv for more analysis or chart building in excel/sheets. But to do so, you’ll probably need to cross reference between the user export and the post/topic export. 

The user role will be in one of the export columns and you can filter that way.

@ddpancratz thanks for the insight and helping, it certainly isn’t a streamed line way of approaching it but it works at least. Thank you!

Hey @krystalwu, you should be able to get users that registered in the last 6 months on the User Overview. There’s an option on the filters named “Registration date”.


I did the filter you asked on our community and I believe that’s what you’re looking for?
 

 

You can also save this filter as segment on the top right corner 😀

The only problem is that I don’t know if the segment will keep updating the last 6 months, it might co-relate only to the day you saved the segment but you can test this and let us know here

Hi @krystalwu 👋,

You should be able to achieve this from the user overview like @leo-inspired mentioned.

You can combine the filters so that you can target those that have registered after a specific date AND that have more than 0 topics or replies.

 

The segment feature will allow you to save these filters as a segment which auto-updates automatically, will show segments as a percentage of your user base and allows you to take action on your users through our upcoming bulk actions!

In defence of Danny, this is fairly new functionality :)
