I am trying to: Create a list of authors in the home page to show who has contributed more to the page in the last week.
I expected to see a single list of authors ordered by number of posts in the last week.
Instead, I got my author ID number...
Links that I have already try with no luck:

Hi, there's no built-in way to sort and filter a list of Users by number of posts created over a specific time period. That type of ordering isn't supported by WordPress directly - there is a post count order option but it's not filtered by date range:

Views can help you create a list of posts created in the last week, and sort that list by post author. However, calculating totals for each author and making comparisons about those totals isn't something Views is designed to accomplish. So unfortunately I don't have a cut and paste solution available for you. I think this will require a skilled developer. You can connect with independent contractors at our portal here: https://toolset.com/contractors
I think I had the same reply a year ago or so about the same feature. You haven't done anything new in regards to that issue...
Sorry but contractors is not the way forward. Your plugin should cover this user feature, no excuses.
Anyway thanks for your quick reply.
I can't see any existing feature requests for this here: https://toolset.com/feature-request.
A feature request is the required next step, and I suggest you take it. I'm not here to argue about what we should or should not offer right now - it's a moot point. We don't offer it now, and the only way to get it added to the existing software is to submit a feature request.
Very honest reply from you Christian.
Thanks for taking your time.
I will send a feature request. Thanks
