works perfectly - thanks

Thanks! You inspire me to learn more of php and phpBB, well done!

By the way with with we_universal, it aligns to left. Please see, www.zmainframes.com - I think because it's how we universal sets anything in the footer. If we need to make it center aligned just for we_universal, what is the way to do it? Please advise.

A fine idea - very fine :)

I have installed this extension. Is it possible that counting does not work correctly if you change the style (Stylechanger, chatbox?)?
May be it counts more than one visit than (2-6). Or may be, my little site is overrunned and I don't know it...
48 visits after 3 minutes... I can not believe

Will check this with one of my test boards another day.

Thank you for this extension

This detects the index so what ever hits the index also will show on other pages its not unique to all pages just the index.

So if add the "other page's count" as well, will not that be a true count of "visits"?

and what do you think about chatbox - actualizes every 10 seconds?

strange mine only goes up 1 number after a page refresh mchat has no effect on it.

Code: Select all

public function page_footer($event)
	{
		$pagevisits = (isset($this->config['pageviews'])) ? ($this->config['pageviews'] + 1) : 1;
		$this->config->set('pageviews', $pagevisits, 1);
		$pagevisits = number_format($pagevisits, 0, '.', ',');
		
		$this->template->assign_vars(array(
			'PAGEVISITS'		=> $pagevisits,
		));
	}

I don't use mChat, but JV Footerchat and JV Chat. 2-7 calls one refresh of index page counted

From yesterday in the evening to now: 9565 visits...

That is not correct, never

May be we need restrictions - one person/guest/bot = one visit for x hours/minutes

[dmzx]

will take a look at it.

Are you using tapatalk as well? Did 7 visits for every topic call I had on my forum.

[Scanialady]

no, I never have used tapatalk.

I also observe the same behavior as yours - a page refresh and count goes up by 1. I don't have mChat installed though.

As the "Windows Support representative" would say - close all the windows and restart... may be reinstall or Install on a test board without any other extension and observe the behavior.

... may be reinstall or Install on a test board without any other extension and observe the behavior.

to install it on a test board without other extension may give the expected behaviour (because there is nobody else, too), but it is useless for me.

Did a quick look but the JV Chat does a POST every few seconds that will trigger the count.
Will check for a fix.
