Member Trends

Current Total Members

When viewing the Current Total Members tile, you will see the current total members (Active plus Inactive), so you get a real-time view of your community size. This feature is not affected by any date filters and instead represents the current daily snapshot of total members.

Current Active Rate

When viewing the Current Active rate tile, you will see the current active rate (Active Members divided by Total Members), so you get a real-time view of the active rate. This feature is not affected by any date filters and instead represents the current daily snapshot of members.

Total Members Over Time

To understand community membership trends, total community membership over time is shown in a chart so you can make decisions and gain insights regarding member management.

The count of total members includes both active and inactive members. This chart allows you to view the daily totals over a specific period. You can export the chart as an image (PNG, JPEG, SVG), PDF, CSV, or Excel file by clicking the hamburger menu in the upper right of the chart.

Active Rate Over Time

If you want to understand activity rates, you can view the community activity rate over time so you can make decisions regarding member retention and rewards.

Active Rate is determined by dividing the total number of active members by total members based on a daily snapshot of community data. This chart allows you to see the active rate over a specific period. You can export the chart as an image (PNG, JPEG, SVG), PDF, CSV, or Excel file by clicking the hamburger menu in the upper right of the chart.

Date Picker

Active Rate and Total Members over Time are closely related trends. When you filter by date, you have customizable date options that allow you to view data in a set of unique periods.

The default state is past 30 days by day. You are also able to customize the date range or choose from the following by day, week, or month:

• Past 7 Days
• Past 30 Days
• Past 90 Days
• Past 180 Days

When any period other than day is selected, an average of the database snapshots will be displayed.

All-time is defined as "from the first day a member joined the community."
