"Last 30 days" shows incorrect sorting and number of views

    Since my last update (I can’t remember if my starting version was 3.0.3 or 3.1.0) that my “Last 30 days” statistics are incorrect.

    • When I look at the “Last 24h” posts show up ordered by views in descending order. My TOP1 post has 38 views. OK.
    • When I look at the “Last 7 days” posts show up ordered by views in descending order. The previous post continues to be TOP 1 with a total 324 views. Makes sense.
    • When I look at the “Last 30 days” posts show up unordered . The previous TOP1 post doesn’t even show up and the other posts show less views than before, which doesn’t make sense. If they have 100 views in the last 7 days, they can’t have 2 views in the last 30 days (last 7 days plys 23 more days)
    • When I look at the “All time” posts show up ordered by views in descending order. The same post continues to be TOP 1 with a total of 5106 views. Makes sense.

    I noticed this because I used the “Last 30 days” widget to display my popular posts. Maybe the updated changed something about the way you calculate monthly views.

    Can you look into it? Thanks.

    Hi there!

    I’m unable to reproduce this. For me, Last 30 days sorts posts correctly (see screen capture). Could you please post a screen capture so I can see your settings? Also, what plugins do you have installed? Are you using a caching plugin by any chance?

    I’m using wordpress 4.0. Let me know if you need any more information.
    Should I reinstall your plugin? (as long as I don’t loose my stats)

    Thanks for the screenshots!

    Does that still happen if you disable the “Display only posts published within the selected Time Range“? I’m away from my laptop now so I can’t test right now.

    Yes, the problem remains with taht option enabled or disabled. I usually use it disabled.

    No problem, meanwhile I’m using the 7 days statistics.

    That’s odd. Since I’m unable to reproduce the problem, I need either temporary access to your site so I can take a look at it firsthand or get a copy of your DB tables to debug it locally.

    Is that OK with you? If so, please get in touch with me via hcabrerab at gmail and let’s continue from there.
