Most And Least Read Posts Widget

বৰ্ণনা

“Most And Least Read Posts Widget” is a free plugin for WordPress. developed by Giuliano Polverari (WhileTrue.it) to generate lists of the most and least read posts.

The following options are customizable:

  • number of posts to show
  • exclude posts whose title contains certain words
  • show post hits after the title (style customizable via CSS class)
  • exclude posts older than XX days

The plugin starts counting hits once activated, storing them in the “custom_total_hits” custom field without the need of external accounts.

The most popular web crawlers (e.g. Googlebot) are recognized and their hits discarded; also Admin hits are discarded.

Archived post hits are shown in a column inside the backend post list.

The plugin is compatible with multi-language WPML plugin, showing most/least read posts for current language.

Optionally, the number of hits can be shown inside the post content, with:

  • a custom phrase, e.g. “This post has already been read XX times!”
  • a custom position (above the post, below the post, both)
  • a custom CSS style

If you want to show the post hits anywhere inside the template loop, you can the PHP function provided, e.g.:

echo most_and_least_read_posts_get_hits(get_the_ID());

Shortcode

Also, [most_read_posts] a shortcode is available. Use it like this:

[most_read_posts type="most" posts_number="5" show_thumbs="false" date_from="2016-01-01" date_to="2016-04-30"]

Shortcode attributes:

  • type: “most” or “least”
  • posts_number
  • words_excluded
  • title_max_chars
  • excerpt_max_chars
  • show_thumbs: “true” or “false”
  • add_line_break_before_thumbs: “true” or “false”
  • show_hits: “true” or “false”
  • show_hits_text (default: “views”)
  • days_ago
  • date_from and date_to: if set, overwrite the “days_ago” attribute (format: YYYY-MM-DD)

ইনষ্টলেশ্যন

Best is to install directly from WordPress. If manual installation is required, please make sure to put all of the plugin files in a folder named most_and_least_read_posts_widget (not two nested folders) in the plugin directory, then activate the plugin through the Plugins menu in WordPress.

সঘনাই উত্থাপিত প্ৰশ্ন

I get an error message that says “no results available”

The plugin starts collecting hits once installed, so there are “no results available” for a short time, until the first data is stored.
It’s better to show the widget some hours (or days) after having installed it.

The same post shows up multiple times

This uncommon issue can be caused by duplicated custom fields in some posts.
To solve it, inspect the post custom fields and delete unnecessary duplicates of the “custom_total_hits” field.

Can I customize the thumbs?

Yes, you can do it editing the “mlrp_ul” class in your template style.css file.
E.g. 50×50 pixels images, floating on the right:
.mlrp_ul img { width: 50px; height: 50px; float: right; }
