Está procurando uma maneira de rastrear as visualizações de posts sem um plug-in usando post meta? Embora provavelmente haja um plug-in para isso, criamos um trecho de código rápido que você pode usar para rastrear visualizações de posts sem um plug-in usando post meta no WordPress.
Instruções:
Adicione esse código ao arquivo functions.php do seu tema ou em um plug-in específico do site:
function getPostViews($postID){
$count_key = 'post_views_count';
$count = get_post_meta($postID, $count_key, true);
if($count==''){
delete_post_meta($postID, $count_key);
add_post_meta($postID, $count_key, '0');
return "0 View";
}
return $count.' Views';
}
function setPostViews($postID) {
$count_key = 'post_views_count';
$count = get_post_meta($postID, $count_key, true);
if($count==''){
$count = 0;
delete_post_meta($postID, $count_key);
add_post_meta($postID, $count_key, '0');
}else{
$count++;
update_post_meta($postID, $count_key, $count);
}
}
// Remove issues with prefetching adding extra views
remove_action( 'wp_head', 'adjacent_posts_rel_link_wp_head', 10, 0);
Opcionalmente, adicione esse código também a uma coluna no administrador do WordPress que exibe as visualizações de post:
// Add to a column in WP-Admin
add_filter('manage_posts_columns', 'posts_column_views');
add_action('manage_posts_custom_column', 'posts_custom_column_views',5,2);
function posts_column_views($defaults){
$defaults['post_views'] = __('Views');
return $defaults;
}
function posts_custom_column_views($column_name, $id){
if($column_name === 'post_views'){
echo getPostViews(get_the_ID());
}
}
Essa parte do código de rastreamento de visualizações definirá as visualizações de posts. Basta colocar esse código abaixo no arquivo single.php dentro do Loop do WordPress.
<?php
setPostViews(get_the_ID());
?>
Observação sobre o cache de fragmentos: Se você estiver usando um plug-in de cache como o W3 Total Cache, o método acima para definir visualizações não funcionará, pois a função setPostViews() nunca seria executada. No entanto, o W3 Total Cache tem um recurso chamado cache de fragmentos. Em vez do método acima, use o seguinte para que a função setPostViews() seja executada sem problemas e rastreie todas as visualizações de posts mesmo quando o cache estiver ativado.
<!-- mfunc setPostViews(get_the_ID()); --><!-- /mfunc -->
O código abaixo é opcional. Use esse código se quiser exibir o número de visualizações em suas postagens. Coloque esse código dentro do Loop.
<?php
echo getPostViews(get_the_ID());
?>
Observação: Se esta é a primeira vez que você adiciona trechos de código no WordPress, consulte nosso guia sobre como copiar/colar corretamente trechos de código no WordPress, para não danificar acidentalmente seu site.

Opps sorry, please disregard my previous comment. I realized I was calling the setPostViews function multiple times. My bad….
After fixing this, I am only seeing the view count go up +2 anytime I refresh the single blog post.
Does anyone have a fix for this? I don’t imagine this will be much of a problem considering that most users wont actually be refreshing the page, though it would be nice to have an actual count number to display..
Thanks for the code 🙂
How to making a random views count to (600,900)
please help..
how do i stop auto increase count on page refresh?
Hey, really great tips. Thanks for sharing with us. I am using plugin and google analytics to track my page views.
Hi,
I want to show the count inside meta class, my meta code is:
how to print the counter between the meta like author, date, catagories?
Hi,
Do you what is the standard PHP/wp field name for the post views? I only want to display that, simple.
Thanks.
Risk Manager
try but don`t work for me.
If I only need 5 I would have to change?
Where will the post views appear?
In the location you place the code within your template from step 2.
echo getPostViews(get_the_ID());you can put this within some html and style it if you wish. But the data is saved at post meta you should be able to see that when you edit a post within the custom fields section.w3t cache make fragment cache available just in pro version $$$
Good afternoon,
The snippet work great, but I need to reset the value.
Could someone help me, please.
I try this but doesn’t work – UPDATE wp_postmeta SET meta_value = ‘0’ WHERE wp_postmeta.meta_key =’post_views_count’
Thank’s
you can reset by going to your website database look for postmeta, click on it and search for post_view_count and delete all of them
Sorry but i can’t find this field in my database, please explain how to reset counters to 0. Thx
The post meta is found under the wp_postmeta table. If none of the rows in the meta_key column have post_views_count as the value, then it’s possible that the count has not been stored in the database yet.
Hi guys, If someone look for count visits by ip adress, to count only one visit for each visitor this is the right code to do that, I hope is working fine to you, this is my modifications on “setPostViews” function :
function setPostViews($postID) {
session_start();
$count_key = ‘post_views_count’;
$count = get_post_meta($postID, $count_key, true);
if($count==”){
$count = 0;
delete_post_meta($postID, $count_key);
add_post_meta($postID, $count_key, ‘0’);
}else{
if(!isset($_SESSION[‘post_views_count-‘. $postID])){
$_SESSION[‘post_views_count-‘. $postID]=”si”;
$count++;
update_post_meta($postID, $count_key, $count);
}
}
}
Just replace this function with old function and Well Done!!
not working
Thank you so much. The code is working for me:)
Hey
I am using it and it’s great But facing an annoying problem
It counts twice in custom post type.
Don’t know what to do to fix it any Help?
Have you place the setPostViews() function within the single.php template or another template ?
I have the exact same problem! Yes i placed it in only the single.php file… i use this icm wp car manager plugin… Also counting by 2 4 6 by every visit.
This is a useful snippet. Thanks for sharing!
Modifiqué la función y le agregué para que comprobace si había una sesión activa de la visita del póst y pues.. aca está;
function wpb_set_post_views($postID) {
session_start();
$count_key = ”post_views_count’;
$count = get_post_meta($postID, $count_key, true);
if($count==”){
$count = 0;
delete_post_meta($postID, $count_key);
add_post_meta($postID, $count_key, ‘0’);
}else{
if(!isset($_SESSION[”post_views_count-‘. $postID])){
$_SESSION[”post_views_count-‘. $postID]=”si”;
$count++;
update_post_meta($postID, $count_key, $count);
}
}
}
y para qué serviría eso? algo en especial?
I’m getting double count each view. When viewed the post add two views instead of one.
I have the same problem. Does anyone have any idea what’s the issue?
what template file are you putting the setPostViews() function ?
single.php
I’ve tried putting setPostViews() both inside and ouside the loop, but couldn’t fix the issue.
Also having the same issue…
This works by calling the set views function adding post meta, so unless its called twice you would only get 1 view. I would check your theme to make sure nothing like multiple loops or anything is involved. However unless I was to see your themes single.php I could not be sure what the exact issue is.
I’m having the same issue too. in the single.php either inside or outside the loop, it counts 2 every time I refresh the page…
THis is my personal theme as well…
I did notice however that I created a custom post theme template, keep it outside the loop just below the body tag, and it only counts once when i refresh the page…
I also just tried putting it in the head of the header.php and it only counts once there as well…. the only time this doesn’t work right is when im looking at the domain.com/blog page and refresh it from there, the first post in the blog reel counts one time..
oh well, I can deal with that… thanks again for the code…
You may want to check if setPostViews(); is somehow being called twice, such as if the theme is somehow calling the template code twice.
I can’t get this to work with W3 Total Cache. Is there any way it can work with it or is it absolutely impossible?
Anybody else having issues getting the counter to work? I’m using WordPress 4.2 and have W3 Total Cache installed. The count remains at 0 no matter what (logged in user, logged out user, page refresh, cleared the cache).
I’m only looking at getting the count to function via the backend. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
me too!
Did you solved this?. I think i can help you.
fantastic, how do i get it to count post views only today
thanks
Works great in single.php, but how about in category.php. If you refresh the page all posts add one view, it should retrieve the real number of the post views.
Have you figured this out yet? I’m using WP 5.2.2 and I’m getting +2 count on refresh… Other than that it looks like its working….
works great, exactly what I wanted. thnx for sharing bro.
Hi!
First of all, thanks for this script, it was very useful.
I have a question, i have this snippet in a custom theme i’m developing in order to re-design/re-code my portfolio and i found that in custom-posts the counter is displayed, but when I’m in wp-admin it doesn’t show the number of visits i have as it does in regular posts.
¿Do you have any idea how to fix this?
Thank you.
Nice!! Thanks for the script!! Very Good!!
this only counts my views how do i get it to count evert ones views
Looking at the code in the post, it should definitely be tracking views for every visitor.
You either have absolutely no visitors (This seems unlikely), or you put the setPostViews() function call inside a conditional block that only triggers if the user is either logged in or is a page admin
Thanks for the script. Is there a way that we can display, for example, the 5 most viewed posts?
Finally something simple and it works very good, thank u
