Is there a good alternative to this plugin, since it’s no longer maintained?
I would prefer not to use the readability statistics within Yoast, since I want to use Rank Math for my overall SEO. But Rank Math doesn’t currently do readability analysis.
]]>As described in Title the ignored words appears under the article edit form.
I’ve try to edit my personal list as described as the Ignored keywords tips suggest:
? Example: ^apples?$ = good, /^apples?$/ = bad. ?
but anyway the word appears in the sentences of the edit form
I’ve try with any type of regular expression, then once failed the n time, I decided to build my own Dictionary.
Thanks anyway for your very good work.
]]>Does your plugin display a list of all posts with the word count for each one? I need to sort all of my posts by total word count (lowest to highest) so I can easily find the posts with content under a certain number of words.
]]>Hello,
I don’t know how else to reach you… yesterday morning our website was hacked. By going to the site, the real site would be visible for a few seconds before automatically redirecting to a spam site / download. I have videos if you want them.
Anyway… in contacting tech support they provided this information:
“had a file at /public_html/wpnew/wp-content/plugins/word-stats/xml38.php
That seemed to be causing that redirect issue. I’ve removed this file. It was added at 2016-04-18 04:57
Likely, this is a vulnerability in the word-stat plugin.”
Just thought you would want to know so you can patch your plugin.
Thank you.

]]>Hello,
Thank you for this great plugin. We are using it to help non-native English speakers to improve their writing and understanding.
We would like to display the Live Stats on the Front End at the bottom of the ‘the_content’ area in our single.php. Unfortunately we are not the best at php.
I see here that there is a hook already that displays the Live Stats info in the ‘admin_footer’. Can we us this to display it at the bottom of our post on the front end?
/* # Hooks
-------------------------------------------------------------- */
# Hook live stats. Load only when editing a post.
if ( isset( $_GET[ 'action' ] ) ) {
if ( $_GET[ 'action' ] == 'edit' || !strpos( $_SERVER[ 'SCRIPT_FILENAME' ], 'post-new.php' ) === false ) {
add_action( 'admin_footer', array( 'Word_Stats_Core' , 'live_stats' ) );
}
}We look forward to your reply.
Thanks
Netivity

]]>I’ve installed the plugin yesterday but I’ve not received any stats yet and I can see this message in my admin area:
“Se ha programado la recopilación de estadísticas de palabras (faltan 3700 entradas). Las estadísticas estarán disponibles pronto.”
Yesterday, the number of posts left were 3701. How long may it take to display statistics?
Thank you.

Thanks.
]]>My website is in Italian language, but Words Stats reports only English words.
I see references to update_log of severals plugins installed.
It looks as though the developer has taken a break so we had to fix this ourselves. its such a great SO plugin we couldnt not keep using it.
If like us you often use themes that have shortcodes to make stuff or use WordPress Bakery’s Visual Composer you will find that your top keywords end up being “columns” or “accordian” and other such similar words. This because the plugin tries to keep the contents of shortcodes as best as possible. However we have foudn that most of the time our keywords never actually get between the sqaure brackets like below.
[shortcode="details"]The content is then here[/shortcode-end]
The way to exclude shortcodes being picked up is a simple fix.
1) Open the plugin file basic-string-tools.php
2) Find this around line 127
# Strip HTML tags without gluing words. We assume the HTML is not encoded into entities.
function bst_html_stripper ( $text ) {
$search = array( '@<script[^>]*?>.*?</script>@si', # Strip out javaScript
'@<[\/\!]*?[^<>]*?>@si', # Strip out HTML tags
'@<style[^>]*?>.*?</style>@siU', # Strip style tags properly
'@<![\s\S]*?--[ \t\n\r]*>@' # Strip multi-line comments including CDATA3) Add this line after the Strip out HTML tags.
'@[[\/\!]*?[^\[\]]*?]@si', # Remove shortcodes for common shortcode patterns.
4) It should now look like this.
# Strip HTML tags without gluing words. We assume the HTML is not encoded into entities.
function bst_html_stripper ( $text ) {
$search = array( '@<script[^>]*?>.*?</script>@si', # Strip out javaScript
'@[[\/\!]*?[^\[\]]*?]@si', # Remove shortcodes for common shortcode pattern such as Visual Composer
'@<[\/\!]*?[^<>]*?>@si', # Strip out HTML tags
'@<style[^>]*?>.*?</style>@siU', # Strip style tags properly
'@<![\s\S]*?--[ \t\n\r]*>@' # Strip multi-line comments including CDATA5) Go to word stats on the dashboard and hit refresh. It may not be immediate but it does work.
]]>I’ve installed the plugin and activated it. I get the message: “Word stats collection is scheduled (690 posts left). Stats will be available in a little while.”
However, I only have 562 posts, so I don’t even know where the 690 number comes from.
Also, the plugin never does anything else. The number never drops and the message doesn’t go away.
I don’t know if this info helps, but I’m running the plugin on a local installation, with WordPress 3.9.1 set as multisite.
Thanks in advance for help!

Is it possible to do this with this plugin or I may use some another?
Thanks for all!
]]>hi,
first off thanks for the great plugin. i am an English moron and it helps me not use the same words over and over and over haha.
i use customer code in my post. i have put those words in ignored words list. for example:
–start ignore list
inc
php
die
mysql_error
datarow
–end ignore list
but when i am writing a post they still show up under the “Edit Post” form. For example:
Keywords: inc (5) php (5) die (3) mysql_error (3) datarow (9)
Should this be happening? Think I am doing something wrong?
Thanks for any and all help!
]]>Hello, so I activated this plugin on two of my blogs and on the larger one of the two, the plugin is stuck and not doing its thing to generate stats.
I tried to enable/disable plugin and I made sure that wp-cron isn’t disabled, so I’m kind of at a loss why its not working.
would it being on a blog site in a pw-protected folder affect it?
]]>Hey, awesome plug-in! Much thanks!
I was wondering if there was an easy way to publicize the stats? Or even allow viewers to select an author themselves and view stats.
These are more ideas than questions so forgive me if this is not the place.
I was also wondering if there was a way to get stats for Categories and/or Tags or even pages instead of just author…
And, last thing.. and this may be completely unrelated, but I’m not sure where else to ask… I have the ambitious idea of developing a dictionary specific to the lexicon of my website (https://solfulsoul.com), so the idea being similar to what this plug-in does in that every word is collected counted…
Anyway, thanks again! Great plug-in!

]]>I just installed Word Stats on two blogs, and found that while stats on the edit page were correct, on the dashboard page some posts were being shown with 0 words. This is both on the diagnostics for too-short posts, and the totals. Keywords from these posts were also missing, as I confirmed by selecting a time period containing only one post.
Based on one of the other threads here, I checked a few of the problem posts for nbsp entities and found them. Replacing the entities with spaces fixed the problem.
This was with WordPress 3.5 and Word Stats 4.3.1.
