What is nodebb-plugin-leaderboard?

NodeBB Plugin Leaderboard is an add-on for NodeBB forum communities that creates a ranking page showing which members have earned the most reputation points. It breaks those rankings down by day, week, and month, so you can spotlight both long-time contributors and recently active participants. When installed, the plugin adds a new web address to your forum, specifically a "/leaderboard" page, that automatically sorts and displays your community members based on how much reputation they've accumulated. Reputation in NodeBB typically comes from other users upvoting a person's posts or contributions, so the leaderboard effectively surfaces who the community values most over different time periods. This would appeal to community managers or forum owners running a NodeBB site who want to encourage engagement and friendly competition. For example, if you run a support forum, a monthly leaderboard could highlight your most helpful answerers. A weekly board could spark short-term bursts of activity as regulars try to climb the ranks. It's a straightforward way to recognize top contributors without manually tracking or announcing anything yourself. The plugin can be installed through NodeBB's admin control panel or via a standard package command. The README doesn't go into detail on configuration options or customization, but it appears to be a lightweight, focused tool designed to do one thing: show who's earning the most community respect over set time windows.
