Note: The Unique Contributors widget can be found across the Scoreboard, Value and Leadership dashboards.
The "Unique Contributor" widget provides a snapshot into the core engagement on the platform.

Metrics Explained:
Unique Contributors Percentage
Definition: This metric signifies the ratio of users who have actively contributed content (either through posting or commenting) to the total number of users who have viewed the platform.
Calculation: (Number of unique contributors / Total active viewers) × 100.
Significance: It serves as a key indicator of how many users move beyond passive consumption to active contribution, reflecting the platform's effectiveness in fostering active engagement.
Metric Interplay:
The Unique Contributors Percentage is a standalone metric in this widget. However, it derives its value by juxtaposing two user groups: those who actively contribute and those who view content. For instance, if out of 500 viewers, 100 users contribute by posting or commenting, the Unique Contributors Percentage would display 20%.
Use Cases:
Engagement Health: A routine check on this widget can offer insights into whether recent platform initiatives or content strategies are encouraging users to actively contribute.
Content Strategy: By tracking trends in unique contributions, content creators can gauge what topics or formats resonate most with the audience, prompting active participation.
FAQs:
Q: How often is the Unique Contributors Percentage updated?
A: The hourly metric reflects the latest user contributions and viewership.
Q: Are users who both post and comment counted twice?
A: No, the metric captures unique contributors, so each user is counted only once, regardless of the number or type of contributions.
Troubleshooting:
Issue: Unique Contributors Percentage remains stagnant or drops significantly.
Solution: Review recent platform changes, content pushes, or community guidelines. Sometimes, technical issues or shifts in community dynamics can influence contribution rates.
