The code for the hot post selection can be found in the [app/controllers/application_controller.rb file](https://github.com/codidact/qpixel/blob/develop/app/controllers/application_controller.rb) (search for hot_questions).- Eligible for Hot Posts are all **Questions or Articles** that
- - have **any activity in the last seven days**,
- - are in an **eligible category** (can be changed per-category) and
- - have a score over a per-community **score threshold**
- **Sorted by descending score**. The maximal number of top posts (number configurable per-community) are chosen for the board.
- And about the specific post you mentioned: There was recent activity, namely the deletion of one answer by its author, which is apparently enough to trigger "activity in the last seven days".
