 * Hi,
 * I have a new wordpress installation 3.6 and your plugin in last version.
    But
   the plugin doesn’t count any visit. Configuration is on “evry body”, but counter
   stay at 0. I don’t understand, is there other thing to do ?

 * HI,
    I solved this problem several munites ago. You should add “<?php wp_head();?
   >” before “</head>” in your “header.php” file.

 * [@mastercho](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mastercho/): that is your theme
   issue, please contact your theme author.

 * If you upgraded WP-Postviews whether or not you are using WP 3.6 or earlier, 
   without the code in your theme it will not work.

 * I have “<?php wp_head(); ?>” and “<?php wp_footer(); ?>” in the corresponding
   files and it still not count.

 * [@manuman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/manuman/): make sure you are not
   using any caching plugin. Caching plugin will still count the votes but the display
   will be the older views because it is cache.

    :/

 * Hi,
 * I have a similiar problem.
 * – Im having : “<?php wp_head(); ?>” in header.php before “</head>”
 * – Im having this as footer :
 * “<?php wp_footer(); ?>
    <div id=”footer”> </div>”
 * – I did add stuff to index.php, single.php, ecc… but what it shows is always **
   0 views**. W3 cache plugin disabled/enabled still the same thing.
 * Any ideas?
 * Cheers!

 * [@manuman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/manuman/), [@batori](https://wordpress.org/support/users/batori/):
   to check whether it actually counts, wp-postviews stores the views count in the
   custom meta field. You can find this field value when you edit the post.

 * [@batori](https://wordpress.org/support/users/batori/): that means there is nothing
   wrong with the plugin and your caching plugin is caching the output of the page.
 * [@manuman](https://wordpress.org/support/users/manuman/): can you type for me?
