    Heho… not sure if my questions already answered anywhere in the support board. However, I ask myself hw to get the information how many views the current post have. In best case a short info in the heade at the top of a post/page…

    I assume, that i can use a tag within a php of my theme???

    Can you help? ??

    regards,
    Frank

    Hi Frank!

    Yes, you can use the wpp_get_views() template tag to display the current views count of your post / page ??

    Well… will it works within the entry meta? I’ve changed the content.php by enhanced with the wpp_get_views but it not works…

    Please post your code (use pastebin.com) so I can check it out.

    I’ve add your example at the end of the DIV within the content.php, see below… and sorry, I haven’t a pastebin account…

    <div class="entry-meta">
<?php
if ( 'post' == get_post_type() )
twentyfourteen_posted_on();
if ( ! post_password_required() && ( comments_open() || get_comments_number() ) ) :
?>
<span class="comments-link"><?php comments_popup_link( __( 'Leave a comment', 'twentyfourteen' ), __( '1 Comment', 'twentyfourteen' ), __( '% Comments', 'twentyfourteen' ) ); ?></span>
<?php
endif;
edit_post_link( __( 'Edit', 'twentyfourteen' ), '<span class="edit-link">', '</span>' );
?>
<?php
if (function_exists('wpp_get_views'))
echo wpp_get_views( get_the_ID() ); // This will only work when used inside the loop!
?>
</div><!-- .entry-meta -->

    Seems correct to me. What’s your site’s URL?

    Shit… it works. I assume, that the cache was the problem. I’ve cleared the Cache in FF and it works ??

    Thanks so far!!! ??
