I extracted out just the blocktype from the patch and gave it a quick test in a new 1.8 installation, and it worked, with a few warning messages.
So, I've packaged the blocktype in a zip file and put up a link to it on the Mahara plugins page on the wiki: https://wiki.mahara.org/index.php/Plugins#Blocktype_Plugins -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Mahara Contributors, which is subscribed to Mahara.

When logged out: - most popular pages that are publicly accessible When logged in: - most popular pages that are accessible to logged-in users (which includes the above public pages) For now, the display of these pages will consist of showing the name of the page as well as the display name of the author (or group in the case of group pages). In order to add a bit of variety, that listing should display 10 of the most popular pages, randomly taken from the set of the top 30 most popular pages. The number of pages to list on the frontpage could be customizable with the total set being 3 times the number of random pages picked from it (e.g. 25 on the frontpage -> set of 75).
