Title: Post view counter
Post by: Lord_Rius on January 18, 2016, 05:03:47 PM

Hi!

Is there any way for the post views counter don't count your own visits. I've noticed that sometimes, when i read one post it adds one view to total views.

Sorry for my english, thanks.

This question is not related to SimplePortal, please post SMF-related questions on the main site: simplemachines.org.
Anyways, yes there is a way: http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=3798

And even then, I suggest you not to trust that view counter, it doesn't work properly as it also considers bots - if a bot visits the topic you may get (literally) thousands of "views" in a matter of a few seconds, which obviously spoils the counter.
