Posted in: Newspaper

With a particular traffic on posts the counter cause a serious effort of server. We had to disable it in order to reduce the load.
Is possible optimize it in some way?

Thanks

Hi,
You are referring to this option -> https://i.imgur.com/Replq0R.png, this option can increase the server effort if your traffic on the post is high. That option will allow the server to check and count each enter/refresh of post when you use a cache.
Now, it also depends on the server that you use and what resources are allocate for your website, if it is a dedicate server, then should not be a problem.
Also, the option can be removed if you are not using filters base on the most popular posts.
Thank you!

You know any other method (with less server effort) to updating visit number with a cache system? Thanks

I think that this can be done only if you not cache the posts, but then those will load slower.
Also another solution will be to also use CDN -> https://forum.tagdiv.com/cloudflare-cdn/ also the server need to provide you the resources to can handle the traffic from your website -> https://i.imgur.com/mDORDjc.png https://forum.tagdiv.com/requirements-for-newspaper/
