# Plugin stopped counting views

 * Hi there,
 * I noticed that the plugin only showed comments, but no more views withing it’s
   dashboard. After emptying it’s cache I now got the “Sorry. No data so far.” message
   and no new data seems to be gathered (even though I emptied my cache and tried
   the ajax option). WordPress core and all plugins are up to date.
 * Looked into phpmyadmin and saw, that “wp_popularpostsdata” only got new data 
   until June 1st (stats in the plugin dashboard are all “0”, except for “Hall of
   Fame”), “wp_popularpostssummary” is empty (well, except for the table column 
   names “ID”, “postid”, “pageviews”, “view_date” and “view_datetime”).
 * I kind of have no clou why this before fully functional plugin stopped working,
   maybe you have an idea?
    **My debugging report:**

 * Hi [@zemase](https://wordpress.org/support/users/zemase/),
 * I noticed that WPP’s JS script isn’t being appended to your theme’s header section.
   That’s likely the reason why WPP has been unable to keep track of your page views.
 * Try this:
    1. Exclude WPP from Autoptimize’s cache.
    2. Purge WP Redis Cache’s cache.
    3. Purge Cloudflare’s cache.

   if you must) as I don’t speak your language.

 * Hi Hector,
 * thank you very much – the JS exclusion from Autoptimize did the trick as it seems.
   Views are coming in again. Phew! 🙂
 * Keep up the great work, greetings from Germany!
