# of Views Not Showing

Hello,

Sorry for the inconvenience.
This functionality is not available to show view count.

Thanks

I saw in the description of the plugin that this shortcode can be used to show views:
[wtpsw_popular_post view_by=”views”] (Display Post list by Views or Comment count. You can use “views” OR “comment_count”)

Is that only in the Pro version?

Hello,

We have the functionality to display post ‘view’ wise and ‘comment_count’ wise but there is no functionality available to display ‘view’ count.

But you want to show view count you can use this custom code to display view count

<?php echo get_post_meta( $post->ID, WTPSW_META_PREFIX.'views', true ); ?>

Suppose you are using this shortcode [wtpsw_popular_post view_by="views"] then you have to add this code in wp-trending-post-slider-and-widget/templates/slider/design-1.php file where you want.

Thanks.

Thank you, I’ll give it a try.

Sorry to have to ask another question…I got the code working and it’s counting the views but how do I add the word “# of Views:” just before the number so a person knows what it is? Right now this is the way it looks: date / 0 Comments 11

How can I get it look like this? date / 0 Comments / # of Views: 11

And thank you so much for the time you’re taking helping me!

Hello,

Ok, I Give you exact and proper code please undo all which you previously modified.

Go to line no 39 of wp-trending-post-slider-and-widget/templates/slider/design-1.php and put this code

<?php 
$views = get_post_meta( $post->ID, WTPSW_META_PREFIX.'views', true );
$views = !empty($views)?$views:0;
$wtpsw_post_stats[] = "<span class='wtpsw-post-comment'># of Views: ".get_post_meta( $post->ID, WTPSW_META_PREFIX.'views', true )."</span>";
?>	

Note:- Your modified code will lose when the plugin will update.
if you face error then write manually do not copy and paste may be causing quote (”) issue.
