Hi,

The current version of Soledad doesn't have a post view filter for search engines. We'll consider adding this to the future theme update.

PenciDesign.

Hi,

The post view also increases when the Search Engine bot crawls your site.

One more question regarding the post views. Since this plugin is working i see that few minutes (maybe seconds) after the post is online, views are around 15 or 20 in one go.

What does that means? I don´t think i have "followers" so intence on the website :)

Hi,

If you do not add the extra code, the post view only works with the standard post template, not working with the Elementor Template because this plugin (Elementor) has removed the post view functions.

I understand that without any doubt. But if there is no this EXTRA plugin the views counter doesn´t work by default so?

If we had to install it after ...

PhilDufour replied

Ok so the plugin is part of your theme to work with elementor ?

PenciDesign Supporter replied

Hi,

Soledad is fully compatible with the Elementor. But when you edit your POST the Elementor, this plugin has changed the post template so the default post view functions have been removed.

This is a reason why I've added this to the Code Snippet plugin.

What should i use ?

Note: it´s not a big deal, but you mention that your theme is compatible with elementor ;)

PenciDesign Supporter replied

Hi,

The problem because you've built your post content with the Elementor plugin, so the post view functions can't work correctly.

Ok i just saw that there is now a new plugin installed.

Just pure curiosity, why it doesn´t work without this plugin?

PhilDufour replied

Ok. I will have a look. This is in:

  • Customize → Customize → Single Post → General: check Show Views Count.?

Hi,

I've config the Post view on your site by adding some extra script into the Code Snippet plugin.

Please check.

Hi,

No. If you've not installed the cache plugin, this is not a problem.

Hi,

You must make you enable:

- Customize → Single Post → General: check Enable ajax Post View Count. 

- Customize → Customize → Single Post → General: check Show Views Count.

Then clear all site cache & check again.

Hi,

The post view will update in real-time. In case your site using a cache, you need to enable the AJAX post view by going to Appearance → Customize → Single Post → General: check Enable ajax Post View Count.

Just a quick question regarding the post views.

With how many frequency the counter is updated ? Every hour, everyday?

Because i don´t see many changes 2 or 3 views no more, on post that i know have been viewed much more time
