Installation Time: <2 mins
Template Edits: 1
Plugins: 1
VB Version: This actually works on 3.5.0 - 3.5.4
Live Example (Look at my footer): http://beasttoast.com

Description:
This is a basic hit counter. It uses a little php script and a text file to store the hits (no DB because it would be too stressful). Also you dont have to display the hits on every page you could just put it on your forumhome template, and it will still count all the hits

Installation Instructions:
  1. Download and unzip 'plugin-pageviews.zip'
  2. Upload the folder 'Counter' into your forum directory
  3. Now open the 'Counter' folder, and CH MOD 666 the 'count.txt' file
  4. Install the plugin
  5. *Optional* If you want to be able to display the page views for today just create a Scheduled Task like this:

    Title: 'Page Views'
    Hour: '23'
    Min: '59'
    File Name: './counter/counter_daily.php'
  6. Place '$pageviews' and/or '$pageviewstoday' in any template where ever you want to display the hit count.
Screen Shot:
- Using Total Page Views
or
- Using Total Page Views and Todays Page Views

FAQ:
  1. Q: Where do I put the '$pageviews' thing?
  2. A: Well... If you dont know how to do this then ill just give you a standard spot to put it.
    1. Open up your footer template
    2. Then Find:
      Code:
      <div class="smallfont" align="center">$vbphrase[all_times_are_gmt_x_time_now_is_y]</div>
    3. And replace that with:
      Code:
      <div class="smallfont" align="center">$vbphrase[all_times_are_gmt_x_time_now_is_y]<br>total page views: $pageviews, page views today: $pageviewstoday</div>

This hack was based on ZIKI-SET's hack.

here's my error

Warning: Unknown(./counter/counter.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /global.php(349) : eval()'d code on line 146

Fatal error: (null)(): Failed opening required './counter/counter.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/lucky123/public_html/global.php(349) : eval()'d code on line 146

did I miss a step?

I uploaded 3 files to public html then added the plugin
then changed the footer

I am having a very odd problem.

I setup the corn job to run per your instructions.
Title="Page Views"
Day of the Week=*
Day of the Month=*
Hour=23
Minute=59,-,-,-
Log Entries=Yes
Filename=./counter/counter_daily.php

Note I never see it in the log BUT the next time is always updated in the Scheduled Task Manager view.

So what's the problem, it doesn't update (copy to yesterday_count.txt and reset count.txt to ZERO) with the normal cron job, BUT if I click "Run Now" in the Scheduled Task Manager view it runs just fine and updates the files.

Also note ALL of my other cron jobs work just fine...

Any thoughts?
