    Hi team,

    I am at present using Wp Post views to count my views. The matter is that plugin and its widget does not offer a time range option (ex: popular posts from the week)and no thumbnails can be displayed.

    I would like to move to your plugin, but:
    -will i lost all the couting of wp post views ?
    -Does the plugin displays the total of views underneath the articles ?
    -Can the widget be translated manualy at his top (ex articles populaires)

    – You will not lose the count from the database. However, Top 10 doesn’t have any automated importer for this. You will need to first export the count via mySQL and them import the same

    Untested query that you can run in phpMyAdmin

    
SELECT wp_posts.ID, wp_postmeta.meta_value FROM wp_posts INNER JOIN wp_postmeta ON wp_postmeta.post_ID = wp_posts.ID WHERE ( wp_postmeta.meta_key = 'views' AND wp_postmeta.meta_value IS NOT NULL );

    This should in theory give you all the views for a particular post ID. You can then export this table as a CSV or as mySQL and import it into wp_top_ten table in your database

    2. Yes you can have an option to display the post count below the article content

    3. I’m not clear here, do you mean set the title of the widget? If so, yes.
