Why do you do this with txt files? It would be better to store these values in the database ;)

because why would i want to add 1 query when i dont have to. (plus for me thats like 60,000 a day to my poor database)

Yes but it's safer...
Anyway you have a point there :)

well if you want to make it safe just rename the files on your own :)

Well, but I still can't find this plugin in my ACP.

its called "pageviews"

Hi chatbum,

I've installed as the guide says, but it's not showing up on my pave, I have vB Advanced installed too, would that prevent it?

TIA :)

no vbadvanced would not mess anything up.

make sure you installed the plugin, and set CHMOD 666 to the .txt files.

Yes, I've installed it properly still doesn't work.

If you installed it correctly, there is no reason it wouldnt be working. This is a very basic php script.

Is there away to make the words BOLD?

Yea sure, just find the variables you added and put them in the middle of tags :)

In the instructions, you state:

2.
1. Open up your footer template
2. Then Find:
3. And replace that with:
Shouldn't that read...
3. And replace that with:
?

your right :P, thanks

sorry to ask this simple question but what does " CH MOD 666 the 'count.txt' file" mean ?

i instal but counter show today and totla same i think for me not good werken
Attachment 46381

No its working :) Your Counter started today which is why it would be the same as the total.

It changes the files permissions

i dont but i step to step every tag check but page today and page tootal same

Don't forget to set up Part 5 of the Installation Instructions for showing today's totals correctly.

ah i got it to work now i didnt know what that was but remembered now thanks for this

Does the pages viewed today resets, because I'm getting the same number on both of them. When do they change?

They change when the Scheduled Task runs. It sets hits_yesterday.txt file to the current hits. So its totalhits - yesterdayshits = today

Is there a good way to either email daily counts or save them in a text file so I can keep track of daily stats?

Thanks in advance

well i actually have aready done this, I might release the mod later im still unsure.

when did u install it?

If its been only 1 day then its working fine.

It's been about a week now

Did you set up the cron?

also did you add two $pageviews in your template instead of:

one $pageviews and one $pageviewstoday

this is the code i have in the template

<div class="smallfont" align="center">$vbphrase[all_times_are_gmt_x_time_now_is_y]<br><b>The total pages viewed: $pageviews, pages viewed today: $pageviewstoday</div></b>

What attributes should the files be?

chmod 666 on both text files :) thats the problem

Thanks works like a charm

how did u get Alexa Rank?

Another script i made, If you want i can release it... Its choppy tho. (works great for me tho)

I could make it an easy install just reply to this post and ill see what i can do.

yes yes!! :D

did a quick release just for you.
