View counter fix to work with 7 days post count

Hi,

Does the workaround to fix the post views when using a cache plugin work with the 7 days post sort in the sidebar? I know this fix will show correct views on the top of a post page, but will it also fix the 7 days post sort order in the blocks?

And are you guys planning on integrating the ajax view count in the theme? I don’t like to install so many different plugins to fix the bugs that come with this theme… I mentioned this problem months ago and you guys said that you would fix in in one of the future updates. We’re at least 4 updates further, but the only solution you provide is using another couple of plugins to make it work, instead of fixing it wihtin in theme.

Also, I use block 2 in the sidebar to highlight some post (just like the theme’s live preview) and want to manually select the posts i want to display there. It it possible to filter the post according to post id? I was highlighting the most viewed posts with the 7 days post count but since that doesnt work i now show the most recent posts there…

hi,

the 7 day counter works but not with cache plugin, either use the ajax plugin or disable the cache.

for post in the sidebar there is no filter by post id, but I think is posibly if you change the code of the theme.

Thanks for you message.

Radu, i’ve installed both plugins and have them couting views for a week nog. But it still doesn’t work. The 7 days post count still doesnt work with these plugins. The post meta on some old posts that maybe have been viewed 10 times the last week show a 7 days post count of 1200 in the meta. This is impossible. Please provide some support!

This is a post i published yesterday. The 7 days post count still shows the wrong amount of views. Screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/DH2iEZs.png

Hi,

i’ve got same problem. Counter of views works fine with the plugins you advise but it doesn’t work with 7 days counter.

I’ve updated to the last version of newspaper which indicate that it fix it but it not works.

How can we do ? It’s very damage because your theme is very good and lot of websites uses the most views post to increase the reader to read more posts…

I don’t understand why it doesn’t work because lot of plugins can do that with cache plugin enable…

hi,
did you check for conflicts between the theme and the plugins you have installed.

try to disable the cache and see if the counter works.

Thanks for you message.

Hi Radu,

Yes the counter works without cache plugin enabled. But I hoped it will work with this update…

hi,
try it,
be sure to backup your entire site before updating (files and database)

Thanks for you message.

Hi Radu,

What do you mean ? I’ve updated to the 3.7 but it doesn’t work with cache enabled only when cache is deseabled. But i need cache plugin to make my website faster.

You mean i have to update to 3.8 ?

Hi,

Thanks, i’m using popular post by the number of comments instead, i don’t want to search and install another plugins.
