Total Story Views

Description

The Total Story Views Module for Plikli allows you to:

  1. Display, in ONE of thirteen (13) different places, the total views of each news article.
  2. If the sidebar display is ON, it displays up to the number of articles set of the most viewed articles, by descending order, in the sidebar; the sidebar display default is 5.

Where to display the Total Views

The default is set "story_total_views_custom", which means NO PLACE and you have to set a placement. The ideal placement is "tpl_plikli_story_tools_start", which is in the story tools, right before where the "Discuss Add Bookmark Group Share" are placed. (see the illustration on the module's settings page in the Dashboard section.)

You can change it to where you want it to appear by selecting from the 13 different hook places under "Where to display the Total Views:" on the settings page after you view the many snapshots I provided to illustrate the look and feel of each setting.

Displaying the Most Viewed articles in the sidebar

By default, the sidebar display is off. You can always turn it ON/OFF from the settings page, under "Sidebar is Off by default. If you want to display it, change the settings to ON:"

Number of stories you would like to display in the sidebar?

The default is 5, however you can set the number you want!
