Installation Time: <2 mins
Template Edits: 1
Plugins: 1
VB Version: 3.6.0
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:

Download and unzip 'plugin-pageviews.zip'
Upload the folder 'Counter' into your forum directory
Now open the 'Counter' folder, and CH MOD 666 the 'count.txt' file
Install the plugin
*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'
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:

Q: Where do I put the '$pageviews' thing?

A: Well... If you dont know how to do this then ill just give you a standard spot to put it.

Open up your footer template

Then Find:

Code:

<div class="smallfont" align="center">$vbphrase[all_times_are_gmt_x_time_now_is_y]</div>

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>

I like the idea but how do I get it into my Statistics box instead of my footer?

giovannicosta · #25 03-11-2007, 07:15 PM

does it work for vb 3.6.5?

ravencr · #26 03-11-2007, 11:14 PM

I decided to use statcounter.com and it works perfectly and has a ton of stuff it provides all for free.

Edit the forumhome template.
Works good. I think I have the same count by 2 issue, but for now I will leave it and just divide it if I want to know the true count LOL

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
