How to create top posts / pages shortcode

    Hi there,

    I love the plugin. I’d love to be able to do a bit more with the email reports though please. Is there a way to use the wp_statistics_get_top_pages()
    to produce a shortcode in an email which displays the top pages?

    I also want our authors to be able to see the results of their posts. Is there a way to create shortcodes for that days/week’s individual posts? I’m sure there must be a way as those stats are displayed in WP itself.

    Can you help?

    Many thanks

    Anthony

    The shortcodes are documented in the admin manual, there is no shortcode that maps against wp_statistics_get_top_pages().

    You can use existing shortcodes to do a day/week stats on a post, but it’s probably better to let them access the post stats page instead. If you go in to the edit screen of a post/page you can see the hit statistics in the publish box, clicking on the hit count takes you to a statistics page for that post.

    Thanks Greg, that’s a shame. I want to be able to proactively push the stats to our authors but it doesn’t look like that’s possible. To do day / week stats on a post could I set it up so it automatically pulls in the latest posts or would I have to manually put in the post ID?

    The plugin is primarily for admin’s to use, so doing things like you want is outside of the scope that we support.

    There’s no manual intervention required for the post stats, they are pulled directly from the database.
