Vistor's visit isn't counted after 3.0.2

    Hello! Thank you for a great plugin!
    After updating to 3.0.2, it seems the counter doesn’t work well.

    • Login user’s visit is counted, but not vistor’s.
    • No cache plugin.
    • popularpostsdata, popularpostsdatacache_backup, popularpostssummary exist.
    • All settings are as default.
    • wp_head exists.

    When I check popularpostsdata and popularpostssummary, “last_viewed” stops on the date of plugin update.

    But I’m not really sure which version I was using before updating to v3.0.2. In my other websites with WPP 2.7.3 (in the same server), it’s still working without any problem.

    If any suggestion, I’d appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

    Unfortunately no, it didn’t seem to work. I still get the 403 Forbidden error while viewing any of your posts.

    Maybe there’s a server problem? I’m not that knowledgeable about htaccess, so perhaps you should try contacting your hosting and ask them about it.

    Hello Héctor,

    Thank you so much for your check! I changed the order of codes as below just for a try, according to this topic;

    <Files admin-ajax.php>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Satisfy any
</Files>
order deny,allow
allow from x.x.x.x
deny from all

    I’ll see how it works, but anyways the views seem to be counted in the wpp setting panel, though.

    Well, yes, the plugin will work for you since you’re visiting the site from the allowed IP address ??

    Try visiting your site using a proxy such as kproxy.com and you’ll notice that the 403 Forbidden error is triggered when checking any of your posts (and thus the views count won’t increase for that post).

    Thanks Héctor,

    Yes, you were right! I checked with another IP and it returned 403 error as you mentioned.
    So, I solived the problem like the following instead of IP restriction;

    AuthName "Admins only"
AuthUserFile xxxxxxxx - path for .htpasswd -
AuthGroupFile /dev/null
AuthType basic
Require valid-user
<Files admin-ajax.php>
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    Satisfy any
</Files>

    I think now it works properly. Thanks a lot for your support!

    I still get the 403 forbbiden error ?? What a pain!

    Did you add the IP restriction code to the main htaccess as well? (The one at the root of your WP site).
