RandomFeaturedUser is an extension that adds <randomfeatureduser> parser hook to display a random featured user along with some data. To use it, type <randomfeatureduser period="weekly"/> or <randomfeatureduser period="monthly"/> on a page.
This extension requires the SocialProfile extension. You will need to set either $wgUserStatsTrackWeekly or $wgUserStatsTrackMonthly or both to true.
You can control what is displayed as the output of the tag. By default, the random featured user's avatar, amount of points and a blurb is displayed. To not display the avatar, set $wgRandomFeaturedUser['avatar'] = false;. To not display the amount of points, set $wgRandomFeaturedUser['points'] = false; and finally to not display the blurb, set $wgRandomFeaturedUser['about'] = false;.
