Overview:
WordPress doesn’t count page views by default. Top 10 will count the number of page views on your single posts on a daily as well as overall basis. You can then display the page view count on individual posts and pages as well as display a list of most popular posts based on page views.
Includes a sidebar widget to display the popular posts. And, all settings can be configured from within your WordPress Admin area itself! You can choose to disable tracking of author visits on their own posts.
Features:
- Counts daily and total page views on single posts and pages
- Display the count on the single posts and/or pages. Customize the text that can be displayed
- Display a list of daily and/or overall popular posts by page count. You can choose how many posts are to be displayed
- Thumbnail support
- Support for WordPress post thumbnails
- Auto-extract the first image in your post to be displayed as a thumbnail
- Manually enter the URL of the thumbnail via WordPress meta fields
- Use timthumb to resize images
- Sidebar widgets available for daily popular and overall popular posts
- Exclude posts from select categories from appearing in the top posts list
- View list of daily and/or overall popular posts from within the dashboard
- Output wrapped in CSS classes that allows you to style the list. You can enter your custom CSS styles from within WordPress Admin area
- Customise which HTML tags to use for displaying the output in case you don’t prefer the default
listformat - Clean uninstall if you choose to delete the plugin from within WP-Admin
- Works with caching plugins like WP-Super-Cache, W3 Total Cache or Quick Cache
Requirements:
- WordPress 2.5 or above
Installing
- Download the plugin
- Extract the contents of top-10.zip to wp-content/plugins/ folder. You should get a folder called top-10.
- Activate the Plugin in WP-Admin.
- Goto Settings » Top 10 to configure
- Goto Appearance » Widgets to add the Popular Posts sidebar widget to your theme
- Goto Posts » Top 10 to view the list of popular posts
Options
Below is the options screen as you would see it when you activate the plugin.
-
Top-10 options - General options
-
Top-10 options - Output options
-
Top-10 options - Custom styles
-
Top-10 options - Maintenance
-
Top-10 widget options
You can customize how the count is displayed. Use %totalcount% to display the total count, %dailycount% to display the daily count and %overallcount% to display the overall count across all posts.
Enable / disable display of post count in content on single posts and pages. If you don’t enable the first option, then you will need to add <?php if(function_exists('echo_tptn_post_count')) echo_tptn_post_count(); ?>.
In order to display the most popular posts, you will need to add <?php if(function_exists('tptn_show_pop_posts')) tptn_show_pop_posts(); ?>.
In order to display the most popular posts, you will need to add <?php if(function_exists('tptn_show_daily_pop_posts')) tptn_show_daily_pop_posts(); ?>.
Alternatively, use the sidebar widgets to display the overall or daily top posts.

Why does it say “Test:” before the count info? Can we turn that off or change it?
Thanks for letting me know. The Please download the plugin again. I’ve fixed the same.
The documentation does not explain how to display the list of the top 10 posts, just the count for the current post or page.
@Fred,
Updated the post with instructions for this.
you should add the function that prevents counting the admin’s visit as well
@Alan, That’s a good idea. I’ll work on this.
Thanks for the plugin
Thanks for the info I requested in #3. Now here’s a suggestion: number_format the counters. I am converting to top-10 from another page counter and I have over 200K hits on many pages. I changed the relevant line in top-10.php to:
$cntaccess = number_format((($resultscount) ? $resultscount->cntaccess : 0), 0, ‘.’, ‘,’);
Others may want to do the same.
That’s a great idea Fred. I’ll implement this into the next version!
I will download
But I won’t use it before you have a widget! That should be a top priority 
Yes. That is a top priority on my list as well. What use is a popular posts plugin if you can’t display them!
If I uninstall the plugin and then reinstall it will it start from scratch?
I’m looking for a plugin that will provide me with a list of the most popular posts but will allow me to reset it every month.
You need to deactivate, and delete the plugin from WP-Admin > Plugins.
However, this is a lengthy process and if you are looking for most popular posts by month, this isn’t the best plugin for the job.
Can you hide from top post the start page?
Thank you.
To clarify, the start page is “the static front page”.
As of no. You want to include the start page from the count / showing up in the top posts right?
Is it possible to also display the number of posts for the actual day. Something like: 300 views of which 20 today
Thanks for a great plugin!
I’m working on that currently. It may not be the very next version, but one soon.
hi I was previously using Mark Gosh’s Top Ten. If I start using yours it’ll negate all the hits my site had accumulated until the previous plugin stopped working.
Anyway to get your Top Ten to work with the old Top Ten?
many thanks
All you need to do is change the name of the table using phpmyadmin to
wp_top_ten, assuming that your prefix iswp_(this is the default that comes with WP. Check wp-config.php)thanks so much Ajay. That did the trick.
Great
I’m glad to say that this plugin works when others do not! I was trying to use the wp-postviews plugin but it would always cause a fatal error when activating. Figured it down to a conflict with the wp-subdomains plugin. This one works flawlessly though. Although I don’t mind having the views be public, it would be nice to have the option to have it be viewable only by staff and maybe in the admin dashboard. Either way, glad I found a plugin that can count my views!
That’s a fantastic idea. I got a release planned in the next few hours. I’ll put the feature in the TODO list
v1.1 now displays the popular posts in the WordPress Dashboard
I like the dashboard widget showing popular posts. I actually meant like add another column to the posts dashboard the shows how many hits each post has gotten. I dunno if it’s possible, but would be a nice feature.
I believe this should be possible. Let me take a look into it.
Am successfully implemented this. Will add this in the next version release.
I have had the following stats plug in installed:
Plugin Name: WordPress.com Stats
Plugin URI: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/stats/
Author: Andy Skelton
Version: 1.3.5
Can I use the same table or transfer the stats some how?
Thanks!
I don’t think it is possible, because I believe that the stats are not stored on your server.
I have a list of the stats, can I manually change the table that you read from?
Thanks for the speedy reply, BTW!
The table in which Top 10 stores its stats is wp_top_ten
I’m not sure where the WordPress.com plugin stores its stats.
Where would I find the wp_top_ten table? I want to change it manually. Is this possible…sorry to be so clueless.
You’ll need to edit it in PHPmyAdmin. However, like I said, I don’t think the plugin you use stores its statistics in the WordPress database on your site, but on WordPress.com servers.
Hello,
Thanks for the plugin, I have it installed on a blog but the other issue I have having is its displaying the number of views beside the title. How can I remove that?
Thanks
Right now you can’t, unless you edit the plugin file. I’ll put in an option in the next version
First, thanks for the plugin!
I noticed that unpublished pages show up in the list. I have one or two “test” pages that I use to try out new things (plugins, code, etc.) that I never publish but hit semi-frequently.
The following changes remove drafts from the list:
Change:
$sql = “SELECT postnumber, cntaccess , ID, post_type “;
to
$sql = “SELECT postnumber, cntaccess , ID, post_type, post_status “;
(two instances)
And add the following line:
$sql .= “AND post_status = ‘publish’ “;
above the “ORDER BY” line in both the same SELECT blocks you made the previous changes to.
All four changes in top-10.php.
Pretty straight forward and I don’t really see any reason why this couldn’t/shouldn’t get rolled into a future version. I can’t imagine why people would *really* want to count the hits their drafts get anyway.
Good point. I’ll put this on the to-do list
Thank you.
Nice plugin. I’ve one suggestion – can you make the post count on the end of the top 10 list be optional?
I’ll had this in mind, but it slipped out of my mind in this release. I’ll put this as a to-do in the next release, along with some other formatting options I have in mind.
Great, thanks!
Thanks for your Plugin. Is there a way to change the style of the Top-Post-Line on the bottom of each entry? For me it is styled like the whole post, but I like it to be in italic or something different from the main post-area. Thanks in advance!
Great plugin! Love it! Just one request: It would be nice to be able to exclude certain pages/posts (e.g. by post/page number) from being shown in the top 10. Especially the static home page would be the first I would put on that exclusion list.
I think that can be done, especially if it is an exclude by number. I’ll probably thrown in a exclude by categories option as well.
Hey Ajay,
I would like to know if it is possible to add tags for each row. Currently it comes plain
Hi Raju,
I’m not sure where you want to add the tags?
Please have a look at the sidebar widget (http://techpp.com) I am looking for an ordered list, it is coming as plain list.
That is cause it is inbuilt. I’m currently working on a version that provides you with the option to select between ordered and unordered list.
Currently, if you want, you can edit the top-10.php file and change the
ultoolSure!! that helps a lot
thanks man!
@Raju, You’re welcome. Glad to know you chose this plugin for tracking your posts.
Do, blog and spread the word
Hi there,
Thanks for the plugin! I tried a different one first, which didn’t work with qTranslate (output titles in all languages), but yours works just fine, which is great.
I have one query though – I’m using the widget in my sidebar, but would prefer to only show “Popular Posts” and not “Daily Posts”. Would it be possible to add this functionality to the widget, so that one can tick whether to include one or the other, or both? I can add the PHP code to my sidebar and it works fine, but would be great too control this directly in the widget.
Thanks again!
Sorry, just had another look at the widgets page, and see thre are already two separate ones! Could almost swear I only saw and added one, but I guess I’m dreaming. Either way, all works great, I’m now running just the “popular posts” widget and it works great.
Thanks!
Great
Glad to know the plugin is serving you well…!
When do you plan to publish new version with most popular by comments? I can see you have it on the TO DO list
Thanks for the plugin, I was looking for it a while
Hi Ajay,
Thanks again for the plugin. I was wondering if there are any news on the option to remove either the static page or pages by ID (or both)? That would be a great feature – at the moment, the start page is showing top of my list and it would be better if it wasn’t there! : )
Karl
I plan on providing a simple field that will allow the user to enter a comma separated list of IDs. This IMO, is the fastest implementation of the same. And, you’ll need to only enter this once.
Thanks for the reply! Yes I agree, a comma separated list would be quick and easy to administer, I couldn’t imagine most people wanting to exclude too many pages anyway.
Hey Ajay,
Thanks for the great plugin. However, the counter doesn’t seem to be working which prevents any posts from being displayed in the widget. The widget is enabled and working as I can see the title on the front page.
Would appreciate any help.
Thanks
Great work Ajay!
Just wondered if you knew the quickest way to assign No Follow attritubes to the Top Post links for SEO purposes?
Many thanks
Matt
Hey,
Good job with the plug-in.
How can i add custom fields for daily and total post count? I want topten to work with smart sort, so i can sort posts by view count. It’s possible with wp-postviews, but i hate that thing
Maybe you will add custom field feature into next release?
Thank you for your answer.
Hey there!
just wondering if there is a way to filter the list so it can show top 10 in a specific category?
Hi,
Really like the Top 10 plugin only I have an issue that I wonder if you could explain. I would like to reset the lists each hour or every second hour instead of once a day.
What can I do to mod the plugin to do just that?
Best Regards,
Richard
Can you add a “Top most viewed category” option? Basically just add up total view count of all the posts within a category and return a category top list. I would install another plugin to do this but, its much easier within one native plugin such as “top 10″.
T, I can put tis on the to-do list. I’ll see if it is possible to easily implement it
Any luck with this??
add a function to the plugin so that you can put ranks on which post/page is most viewed:
1. Post-title-here. (viewed 34 times)
2. Post-title-here. (viewed 29 times)
3. Post-title-here. (viewed 10 times)
4. Post-title-here. (viewed 9 times)
5. Post-title-here. (viewed 5 times)
i am using this awesome plugin.
But by default it is using featured image and not using custom field image.
I want it to use custom field image not featured image.
How to do it.
using daily popular post.
Nitin, the first priority of the plugin is to use the featured image, since that is associated with the post. It will use the custom field only in case there is no featured. However, I plan on changing the priorities in a future release
Great plugin. Thanks.
But for some reason, the doesnt want to become a header as its written in the css file.
As a suggestion, It would be nice if I could choose how to display the top10 list, for example: the link/headline as a h3, then the image, then then excerpt. Example here: http://imageshack.us/photo/my-images/600/thumb10e.jpg/
Another suggestion: Able to show 10 random post out of a top100/500 (whatever) list so it wont always be the same list every time people surf on the site – cuz for me at least, the search engines are killing the list a bit.
Mickey, I like the second suggestion. I’ll need to figure out how to get it to work.
Regarding the first, you should be able to use CSS to customise the layout. Try using the
display:blocksetting? But, this will be a bit of painful styling.btw, you need to make something different with your comments. It seems broken after I post one. Cant see anything. It would also be nices if all of the comments are shown directly, and not just a few on each page.
I’ll need to check this. It’s a new theme I recently installed. Guess it needs some tweaks
Would love to see a counter on the attachment (image) pages as well…
Hello Ajay,
I have downloaded the plugin and customized to my liking but do not know how to get on homepage. I see in instructions you advise to add to sidebar widget in appearance but I would like to add this widget to homepage right sidebar on my site.
Can you please advise how I can grab the code to paste on Homepage instead of Post page.
Greatly Appreciated
Thanks
Miranda
Sorry, I figured out how to get on Homepage. I have pasted the following code:
However, it displays a black block and can only see the links when I hover over the posts. Can you please advise on how to edit so that it displays without having to hover over links?
P.S. When hovering, the links are the right color
Can you post a link?
Hi Ajay,
Not sure what you mean by post a link. I took the code off the homepage for now…would it be easier if I left on for you to assess?
Miranda
I already installed this plugin & using it. It has some unique feature. I am enjoying it
Hi,
thanks for this plugin, I wanted something like that.
I have just installed it, but nothing appears in homepage. I mean I didn’t see anything. Do you think I have to wait o I have to do something?
Thanks for you time, I really appreciate your help.
Lila, the plugin tracks hits on your pages. As you get hits, you’ll see the list being filled.
Hi,
Awesome plugin, we are struggling with one issue.
On the dashboard, there is a list of the top ten daily and overall posts. Under each, links to go down through the next 10, and the next 10, etc.
As the admin, I can click on these and go down through the different pages, .
But when my contributors try to do that, the get a page that says: “You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.”
The can see the top 10 on the dashboard ok, but if they they go to, for example: mysite.com/wp-admin/edit.php?page=tptn_manage&paged=30&daily=1&limit=10
They get the error. Any ideas on why or what I can do to fix that?
Thanks, Chris
Currently Contributors cannot modify posts:
A quick fix is to move line 367 in admin.inc.php by moving this line out of the
}add_posts_page(__("Popular Posts", TPTN_LOCAL_NAME), __("Top 10", TPTN_LOCAL_NAME), 9, 'tptn_manage', 'tptn_manage');I more complicated way is to check for Capability:
edit_postsThank you very much for the fast reply Ajay.
I moved the line outside of the bracket, but then it gave me the same ‘You do not have sufficient permissions’ error even when I am logged in as admin.
I moved the line that was like this:
add_posts_page(__(“Popular Posts”, TPTN_LOCAL_NAME), __(“Top 10″, TPTN_LOCAL_NAME), 9, ‘tptn_manage’, ‘tptn_manage’);
}
}
To this:
}
add_posts_page(__(“Popular Posts”, TPTN_LOCAL_NAME), __(“Top 10″, TPTN_LOCAL_NAME), 9, ‘tptn_manage’, ‘tptn_manage’);
}
Could you please try this piece of code, separate from the other “if” loop.
if (current_user_can('edit_posts')) {
add_posts_page(__("Popular Posts", TPTN_LOCAL_NAME), __("Top 10", TPTN_LOCAL_NAME), 9, 'tptn_manage', 'tptn_manage');
}
hmm, if I put it in the same place (between the } and the }, it does not change anything, I can see those pages as admin, not as contributor (contributers do have ‘edit posts’ privilages).
If I put it outside the second bracket, just before the ‘add_action(‘admin_menu’, ‘tptn_adminmenu’);
‘ line, I get s server error.
Thanks a lot for your plugin!
I’ve noticed that the plugin icreases posts views…while admin ‘checks and manages’ theme from frontend.
The related option is unchecked in the backend plugin interface.
What i’m doing wrong?
See you soon!
Danilo, it is just post-authors that are not counted. However, I’ll take this point into consideration as a possible new feature
Ok, ty!
Another quick request: can i change the number format of views? Without any coma or dot…
What code i’ve to modify to do that?
Thanks a lot Ajay
Unfortunately, no easy way to do that either. You’ll need to edit a few files.
Line 191 of top-10.php and line 37 of top-10-counter.js.php display the count
You can use number_format to format the count
i have some problem with this plugin, after i upgrade to Version 1.7
1. View Daily Popular Posts data is no longer exist, after i upgrade
2. It stop counting! the data still there, but its no longer counting hit click.
can you help me please, what is the problem?
Thank you for the plugin, I love it! Btw I just want to suggest if it would be possible to also make a top 10 for each category or tag.
Chance, this one is on my to-do list
hello. awesome plugin. i plan on using it to display thumbnails from my top 10 posts. i can get that part working, no problem.
ive played with the width and height in the thumbnail settings of your plugin. wondering if possible to just set a width on the thumbnail, and leave the height alone, so vertical images arent squished into a square or a horizontal.
let me know if theres a code i can drop in, or delete to take care of this.
thanks in advance!
Ray, this is a feature I’m currently working on. I plan on using timthumb for this, since that seems to be the best option. However, I’m not sure how correctly this auto-resizing will work
I want to change the text on the widget. “Comments” and “Views”.. How can i do it? Thanks for your fantastic plugin!
hello, how to remove the multiple counting of the visits?
Thanks
First i wanna say thank you very much for this great plugin. This plugin should be a lot of more famous its 100 times better than the most i saw until now.
How can i show the Views myself?
I want to display (Visited %totalcount% times, %dailycount% visits today) myself on the single page
but im not sure wich code i can use to display it.
thanks in advance
never mind already got it
Hi, is there a way to modify the plugin so that it multiplies the number of hits? i.e. to 2) to inflate post views by 2 perhaps?
thanks
Well, not sure why you would want to do that, but you could modify the
top-10-addcount.js.phpfile and add a x2 where the count is addedHi, I’ve been using this pluggin for last 8 month. thanks bro for such a great plugin
Your welcome
Hello Ajay,
I would like to use the counter but not display the TOP 10 posts on my website. I noticed that the view counts are right on the Posts page in WordPress. It is exactly what I want minus the TOP 10 widget displaying on my website.
Thanks in advance,
Miranda
Miranda, if you don’t add the widget to your theme, then it shouldn’t display on your blog automatically
I’m trying your plugin, but there is problem with popular post, it showed duplicate posts on show. moreover, i want to know how to style the excerpt. thanks for your plugin. one more, the output format is not working as it should be
Greetings! I just realized that I can add a thumbnail to my Most Popular listings. But I can’t seem to put the image on the left with the headline next to it on the right. Thanks in advance for any suggestions.
Bryan, you’ll have to style the
tptn_thumbto float the image left. Unfortunately, I don’t have a styling option off the shelf.Are you already using some CSS styles for this?
No, that’s a little over my head. Do I need to add a new section to the main style sheet? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!
Yes. You will need to add a new section to style.css of your theme.
here is what i did to my top-10 plugin. I choosen thumbnail after tittle, making title with a different sytle than excerpt. hopefully, this helps your problem.
if (!$p_in_c) {
$output .= $tptn_settings['before_list_item'];
$output .= ‘postnumber).’” rel=”bookmark” class=”tptn_link” style=”font-size:11px; font-style:normal;”>’; // Add beginning of link
if ($tptn_settings['post_thumb_op']==’after’) {
$output .= ”.$title.”; // Add title if post thumbnail is to be displayed after
}
if ($tptn_settings['post_thumb_op']==’inline’ || $tptn_settings['post_thumb_op']==’after’ || $tptn_settings['post_thumb_op']==’thumbs_only’) {
$output .= ”.tptn_get_the_post_thumbnail($result->postnumber).”;
sorry, here is the code
$output .= ‘<a href=”‘.get_permalink($result->postnumber).’” rel=”bookmark” style=”font-size:11px; font-style:normal;”>’; // Add beginning of link
if ($tptn_settings['post_thumb_op']==’after’) {
$output .= ‘<div>’.$title.’</div>’; // Add title if post thumbnail is to be displayed after
}
if ($tptn_settings['post_thumb_op']==’inline’ || $tptn_settings['post_thumb_op']==’after’ || $tptn_settings['post_thumb_op']==’thumbs_only’) {
$output .= ‘<div style=”float:left;margin:0 7px 0px 2px;”>’.tptn_get_the_post_thumbnail($result->postnumber).’</div>’;
Thanks for the code. I’ll try to get the divs implemented in the future version
I couldn’t get this to work (I got server error) so I’ll just wait for your official support in a future release. Thanks.
Hey guys, on my site the counts are going crazy every pageview counts like 5-50 pageviews.
is there anyone who got the same problem?
What’s the link to your site?
Ajay recently released a new version of this plugin. Try version 1.8, maybe it will solve your problems.
This is a great plugin, I love it!
But how can I prevent some posts from sowing in the widget?
Can I exclude a specific post or at list lower the number of hits for it so it doesn’t show in the widget?
I spent a lot of time searching for solution, but no luck.
Ajay, please help!
The only way to do that is to directly reset the count in the database using phpMyAdmin. Remember to backup your database before you attempt this.

Where can I find style of plugin sidebar popular list? I want to chsnge pre image style.
You can style the
tptn_thumbclass by adding the code into your style.css of your themeHi, thanks for the great plugin! Could I please find out if there is an option to have the post view counter at the top of the post rather than the bottom of the post? Not sure if there’s an option that I missed, or if it’s possible at all. Thanks!
You’ll need to manually edit your theme and add the code in http://ajaydsouza.com/wordpress/plugins/top-10/#options
Is there a way to use Post-Types with this awesome plugin?
Not yet. This is something I am working on.
Hi at all,
I’ve a really awesome problem: After installing this plugin I saw the counter in the posts, but after configuration in the admin-panel there is no more counter to see.
Because the counter on the single posts is not so important for me, I tried to configure the listings on our left sidebar, because I want to show both lists. With the widget the top of all list no prob. With the code in the theme, no chance.
WP 2.9.2. What can I do?
Regards
Simone
Simone, I’m not sure what you mean by “with the code in the theme, no chance”.
Is there a way to display number of page views in popular lists at the beginning on the left side of the link. Right now it’s displaying at the end of the description.
Yes… but for this you need to use the manual install option above under Customising
Thank you for this awesome plugin, Ajay!
One question: I would like to include display of pages in addition to posts in the Popular list widget, and I see the setting to make that happen, but I would like to exclude certain pages (such as “Home”) from the list display. I see the ability to exclude categories, but is there a way to specify pages to exclude?
Thank you for your help!
LT, there isn’t a direct method right now unfortunately. One suggestion is you can create a new category and add these pages to that category.
Wow, thank you for the fast response! I appreciate that. I was afraid that might be the case, but thought I’d ask (and it’s really a minor thing, easy enough to live with). The plugin still rocks in every other way
Thanks!
I would like to filter popular post by category so that I can show different top10 lists for different categories of posts. Is this possible today or maybe something you might implement?
I am also interested in creating RSS feeds from the top10 lists is this possible today or maybe on the TODO list?
Andreas, the category wise option doesn’t exist yet. I can put it on my to-do list. Regarding the RSS feed, I am not really sure if that will be on the to-do list. It will depend on user requests and how easy WP allows you to create custom RSS feeds
Hey Ajay.
Downloaded the v1.8 and kudos to ya. Found no other plugin like that (Saved myself a week). But got a little problem with that.
The titles appear inline with the thumbnails. And if the titles are longer , it begins in a newline. And is there anything we can do to make titles appear simultaneously with the image. Look at the image what i mean to say.
The right side image is from mashable. And I want it like that.
If you can fix this or it needs a simple tweak. Let me know.
Regards,
Bobby
Bobby, the thumbnail resizing is relative, i.e. it keeps the pictures scales. I plan on using timthumb in a future version, but haven’t had the time to implement this.
Regarding the styling, this is totally up to you. The plugin outputs codes with several CSS classes which you can use to style the output. Unfortunately, I’m no expert on the code to be used to achieve this result.
And sorry forgot. The thumbnails aren’t getting resized. What could be the problem??
Thank you for your effort, and good result. I like this plug-in, for me it is default in WP distribution…
And I have a small idea… Would it be possible to realise a %totalsitecount%, so cumulative site-figures are available? Just a thought…
Thanks for the great work!

Rutger, I’ll put this on the to-do list.
How to full remove this plugin also from database? i removed it and re added it..but its just showing the visits from 1 category even if i exclude it
If you delete it from the Plugins Screen in WordPress admin, it will delete everything from the database.
thats not true..if you add the plugin again than it have the old settings..and it keeps also the views in database
Malo, I just deleted the plugin from my Test blog and reinstalled it. The plugin is deleting the posts counts, but retaining the settings. I am investigating to see what could be the problem.
Until then you can hit the default options button in the Settings screen to reset the settings.
Malo, I rechecked my installation. The settings seem to delete fine in my installation.
May I ask how you are deleting the plugin?
i love your plugin, i put your plugin in all of my blog. I will love more if you could make the widget title more flexible. could you bring the title widget option on the setting, so i don’t need to change the source code?
First i deactivate it in plugins page than i remove it manually from the plugins folder. I think its not a problem with your plugin i think its a problem with my database. If i add your plugin again than its just counting the views from 1 category even if i exclude the category. I already removed it and installed it like 10 times i also removed the tables in phpmyadmin manually but with no luck. I tested a other popular plugin and its the same its just counting the views from 1 category so it cant be a problem with your plugin.
You need to delete the plugin from the page in admin. the delete option becomes available after you deactivate the plugin.
Thanks for the great plugin! Is there a way to display or extract the rank number of the popular posts? By this I mean I want my list to display – next to the thumbnail and the post tile – “#1″ if it’s the most popular, “#2″ if it’s the second most popular, etc. Like:
1. Most popular post
2. Second most popular post
3. Third most popular post
4. Fourth most popular post
5. Fifth most popular post
In the Settings page, you could try using an ordered list
olinstead of the defaultul. This should put the numbers in place.it doenst matter how i do it..it keeps the wp_top_ten_daily table in the database and also all views
Plugin could not be deleted due to an error: Could not fully remove the plugin(s) top-10/top-10.php.
Malo, unfortunately, I am unable to reproduce this on my settings. Are there any more details on the error?
I have applied it to my website, thanks again.
Help me! I have installed the plugin but the news didn’t appear in the widget. In addition, visits to the articles are counted twice. How is this possible?
What’s the URL of your site?
Hello Ajay, this is a great plugin. I installed it but count increment wouldn’t work in firefox. It works fine on other browsers. The view count for every page stays at 1. Is it tested on firefox? What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
Can I see a link. It usually takes one day to kick in
Hi!
I’m looking for a easy way to show the_date() in my Sidebar widget for each post along with total views.
Hi, I was wondering if you ever got around to creating seperate divs for the title and the img. This is exactly the plugin i was looking for but cant really implement because I dont know where/how to change the css of the title. I looked at the elements and it’s tied together with the image so I am not able to bring the title up to the top of the img. Below is a pretty simple sketch of what I am referring to
___________ ____________
| | | | Would like title up here
| img | | img |
| | | |
|__________| Titie is currently here |___________|
Have you tried the Image after Title option and then styled it?
Hello. We have 4 sites, all use this plugin. Today it just stops working on one site. No changes were made. It just says “Daily Popular No top posts yet”.
I deactivate it, and delete the plugin tables in mysql db. I install again and “no top post yet”.
Do you know what else i can do?
Could you please make a detailed post on the issue in the support forum for the plugin on WordPress.org
Easier for me to track there.
Hello,
I want to use this plugin in our theme that we want to sell it in themeforest.net, Is it legal to use it in products that we want to sell?!
Sweden, if you’re theme is GPL, it won’t be illegal to use this plugin. However, I do not recommend doing so, since it is actively updated and you don’t want your theme users to end up using old versions of the plugin.
I suggest that you mention to your theme users a quick way to install the plugin from the WordPress.org repository.
It is a great tool … but since latest update the daily count doesn’t show up in the backoffoce. Not in Article List and not on Dashboard … the counting itself seems to be o.k.
v1.9.6 will fix this bug
