Is there a filter available to modify the post view count displayed in the Newspaper theme?
A WordPress post is tied to a forum thread. I’d like to show the article view and thread view counts.
I hope that is clear.
Hi
The theme store post views in a custom filed named post_views_count so you can use this filed to display the post views on your forum. The would be an example code:
You have to replace $post-id with the numerical id of your post. For more details about how custom filed works please check this link: https://codex.wordpress.org/Custom_Fields
Hope this helps!
Thanks!
I decided today to write a few lines to return a total of post views.

I hope this helps anyone else wanting a total of post views.
