Yes you can. You have to check if the post view count is higher than 1000, is so, then round it and return it: function getPostViews($postID) { $count_key = ‘post_views_count’; $count = get_post_meta($postID, $count_key, true); if($count==”) { delete_post_meta($postID, $count_key); add_post_meta($postID, $count_key, ‘0’); return “0 View”; } if ($count > 1000) { return round ( $count … Read more
I looked around again with a more relaxed mind and figured out that the_posts is the action hook I was looking for. This is how I just did it: add_action( ‘the_post’, function ( $post ) { $count = (int) get_field(‘views’); $count++; update_field(‘views’, $count); } ); Now I’ll just figure out how to sort it by … Read more
Is your goal to create a new post with the recent content or to list the existing posts that have the recent content? In general, the latter is more suited to what WP normally does. Creating New Posts This can be done but you’re asking for some complexity. Assuming that you could just stick together … Read more
Late answer WP core offers a function for that case, that makes it much easier and future proof: Simply map it on each item. Wrapped up in a plugin Best used as mu-plugin. <?php /* Plugin Name: (#32093) »kaiser« Open “action”-links in post type list screens in new windows/tabs */ function wpse32093_link_target_blank( $actions, $post ) … Read more
Apparently the plugin does the logging inside the wp_head hook: add_action(‘wp_head’, ‘process_postviews’); so make sure you call wp_head() in your pop-up box, or if you can’t do that (pop-up is not a html document), then just call the function directly, like: if(function_exists(‘process_postviews’)) process_postviews(); // the_content(); ?
You could use custom post types and custom taxonomies. Using the custom post types to store data, taxonomies to categorize the data and you can utilize WordPress’ default searching functionality. https://codex.wordpress.org/Post_Types https://codex.wordpress.org/Taxonomies https://codex.wordpress.org/Creating_a_Search_Page
Your implementation of the getPostViews function looks fine, and I don’t see an issue having that inside your single.php or breadcrumbs.php. However, I would move both functions into your functions.php (more info here) and rather than calling setPostViews inside single/breadcrumbs.php, I would attach it to a WordPress action. <?php //…inside your functions.php… add_action( ‘init’, ‘fa_setpostviews’ … Read more
Your code doesn’t make sense. You use query_posts(), which you should never do, but all that does is clobber the main query. You don’t use the clobbered query though. You then use get_posts() with an undefined (so far as code posted indicates) argument list, so it is not going to return what you expect. I … Read more
You fire setPostViews twice in ad.php via PHP setPostViews($adID); via JS with your ajax function again. Remove one, and you should be fine.
Well, the code you are using to count views does store the count data as a custom_field value. If I want the functionality you mentioned in question, I’d rather use a custom plugin to create a separate table in database to store view count and respective dates. So doing some queries you can display popular … Read more
