HitCount Plugin
#51
Angryboy Wrote:As much as I love the analysis that this plugin provides, both it and its previous iterations have broken my site, and I don't know why.

Everything works for the first week or so, but then every page (except the admin back end) goes blank, and no-one can visit the site. It is only after I either disable or remove the plugin that things get working again. Am I doing something wrong?

For me on mvlcek.bplaced.net it works without problems so far (besides a timeout with the previous version analyzing too large logs).

The only reason for this problem that I see is the lock file (data/other/hitcount/lock.txt) to prevent simultaneous accesses. Maybe it stays locked when the PHP script crashes or is aborted?
Try deleting it and see if everything works afterwards. If you can't delete it, it's still locked - but by whom?
If you deleted it and still nothing works, try creating it again (empty text file). If creating the file doesn't work (on Linux), some process still holds the file.

According to the PHP documentation all locks will be released on termination of the script. Normally all PHP scripts are aborted after x seconds automatically. So I'm not sure what could cause this problem.

Thanks for the many updates! A quick question... when I go to export as a CSV, I'm taken to a page that just says "Not logged in!" - I am logged in to the admin area, or else I couldn't start the process. Any ideas to what is causing this? Same with the export to Excel link.

Also - is there a way to easily reset the stats? I have the IP blocker in place going forward, but I'd like to reset everything to zero once I take a site from development to live.

You need to enable site wide cookies in your gsconfig.php and - if you are not using I18N Gallery or I18N Custom Fields - you need to get the newest version 2.0.3, which implements a workaround of a GetSimple bug with site-wide cookies.

Delete all files (with the exception of .htaccess) in /data/other/hitcount and re-index data (on bottom of hitcount page) or delete everything (with the exception of .htaccess) in /data/other/hitcount-index.
It seems that the reset function got lost in the redesign :-(

Great... I didn't see that the lastest version was posted today. Everything's working... A question about the IP blacklst text file - can I include a wild card entry? For example...

75.127.157.*

So that everything in that range is included?

I uploaded it after your post. I didn't think about the workaround before, because for me everything worked, as the workaround was already implemented in some of the other plugins.

No that is not possible. But you could easily do this in the function hitcount_is_blacklisted, if you know php.

Hi all,
I'm having a weird problem with the latest version of the HitCount plugin. When I click the Hits & Visits tab, the screen displays the message 'Month 2011/09 indexed....' then the page refreshes itself constantly every second, with nothing happening. Can anyone help?

This is the expected behaviour - indexing month after month and preventing time outs by doing only one month per request, but it should do a different month for each request.
Please check, if you have a writable directory /data/other/hitcount_index and create it if necessary.

..but would it be possible to include front end visitor stats with an embed code or something.

There are functions to show the hits for a page or the total number of visits (see beginning of plugin file for details).
(number of hit/visitors of today is not possible without severe performance penalty)

What do you mean with "normal text is shown"?
If you include the above component on a page, it should show nothing. If you want to show the number of visits, you need to output the number with echo:
Code:
<?php echo return_hitcount_visits() ?>

Just pass the name of the file including directories within uploads to return_hitcount_hits(). E.g. if the file is .../data/uploads/zips/x.zip, use echo return_hitcount_hits("zips/x.zip");

Hi Martin,

it's me again.
I use the hitcount plugin as I didn't have statistics at bplaced. In the meantime with hostingsociety there's a statistic.
But what I really loved with hitcount 0.9.1. was that in referers you see the indivdual link instead of complete domains. Unfortunately you decided to remove it for a better layout and more summurised statistics.
So I felt back to 0.9.1
A small modification for comfort I did.
line 35 in referers.php
Code:
<tr><td><a href='<?php echo $re['name']; ?>'><?php echo $re['name']; ?></a></td>
<td style="width:10%;text-align:right">
<?php hitcount_show_amount($re['visitors'],$max); ?></td></tr>
Provides an executable link to see immediatly where the hit came from.

Just for info.

French translation here, UTF-8 encoding.
Last line has a translation for "Refresh" string. This goes with a minor change I made to backend.php file on line 115 :
Code:
<input type="submit" name="show" value="<?php i18n('hitcount/REFRESH'); ?>" style="float:right;"/>
This way the Refresh button gets translated too.
Cheers Smile
