Display the number of views for each one of your posts, as recorded by Jetpack Stats.
This is still a work in progress, and I would love to know what you’d like this plugin, where you would like to display those post views. Open a new thread in the support forums to let me know!
Installation
- Install the Jetpack plugin, and activate the Stats module.
- Install the Post Views for Jetpack plugin via the WordPress.org plugin directory, or via your dashboard.
- Activate the plugin.
- Enjoy! 🙂
FAQ
- You can use the
[jp_post_view]shortcode anywhere in your posts and pages to display the number of views. - You can use the “All Time Site Stats” widget to display how many views your site got since you started using Jetpack Stats.
- You can use the shortcode in your theme files, like so:
<?php echo do_shortcode( '[jp_post_view]' ); ?>. If you pick that option, I would recommend using a child theme instead of modifying your theme’s files. - You can use a functionality plugin like this one to add a custom code snippet to your site without making changes to your theme. In that code snippet, you can decide on which pages the post views should be displayed. In this example, the counter will be displayed at the bottom of all posts, only on posts pages.
