Post Views?????

[adloos]

So I have been trying to figure out how to remove the number of views the posts have had, is this possible? I would not like my registered members and guests to see how many times something has been viewed, but I would like to see these numbers being that I am admin. Anyone have any ideas for me? I would really appreciate any help someone can give me.

You can put a condition around the views (change x to your usergroup id) -

<if condition="is_member_of($bbuserinfo, x)">
$thread[views]
<else />
-
</if>

I think that is just in the threadbit template. It will put a dash there instead of the number.

Hello, I NEED to show, in the postbit, how many times a poster's post have been read. I've seen this on a forum using the same version of vBulletin as vB.org, I used firebug to copy the HTML but I cannot seem to figure it out any help will be greatly appreciated.

2,653 posts, read 586,670 times

HTML :
<div>
2,653 posts, read <abbr title="This member's posts were read 586,670 times">586,670</abbr> times
</div>

I don't know where you would even get the data on how many times a specific post has been read. The OP was actually talking about the number of times a thread has been viewed.

(And, this thread is over six years old. You really should start your own thread asking for help.)

If you only viewed the post with "showpost", it may be possible to create a modification to show the number of views, otherwise it would require some type of event on "showthread" to even know what post the user is reading. As @Lynne stated there is no intrinsic functionality for this option.

Thanks for the replies.
I've tried everything within my scope, I'm going to place a mod request and yes I will pay.
