Title: Show postviews Last modified: September 29, 2023 --- # Show postviews * Resolved [justgert](https://wordpress.org/support/users/justgert/) * (@justgert) * [2 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/show-postviews/) * First of all I love this plugin. Works like a charm. **Thank** you for this! * Then my question/feature request : * Maybe I overlooked things, but why is there no option (yet) to show the total hits or/and pageviews in the front so visitors can see how many times a blogpost is visited. For example a shortcode like this : * [koko-visitors] and/or [koko-pageviews] * These are already shown in the back-end. Would love the option to show these in the front end as well. Under each blogpost like: This page has been visited[ koko-visitors] times. * Would save some other plugins 🙂 Would love to hear about this you guys!

Yeah, I found those. But it is not what I meant. * What would be **really** useful is a shortcode with outputs the number of visits to a blogpost. This is seen in admin section, but would like to have it under each post with a shortcode. * For example : when I would include [koko-visitors] under each blogpost, the outcome of [koko-visitors] would be the number of visits, say : 12598 * That way we could use it like : This post has been read [koko-visitors] times. This would then translate in : This post has been read 12598 times. * The information is already available in the back-end 🙂 Advantages : No need for another postview counter, and finally a reliable counter which would work with every caching system. * Best regards, Gert - This reply was modified 2 years, 8 months ago by [justgert](https://wordpress.org/support/users/justgert/). * Plugin Support [Lap](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lapzor/) * (@lapzor) * [2 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/show-postviews/#post-17087661) * Ah I see what you mean. Someone has been working on something similar, showing the total for the whole site (still not per post). They submitted a pull request but it’s not added into Koko at this time: [https://github.com/ibericode/koko-analytics/pull/120](https://github.com/ibericode/koko-analytics/pull/120) We have requests for this on the feature request list though.

Also found that post a while ago. * ” _showing the total for the whole site (still not per post)_” Such a shame since the total per post is already available in the admin section. * Could you pleas tell me which Koko file is used to list the totals per post in the back-end Lap? * Plugin Support [Lap](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lapzor/) * (@lapzor) * [2 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/show-postviews/#post-17093425) * You’re likely more interested in this example, if you are a coder you could go from there to make your own shortcode: [https://github.com/ibericode/koko-analytics/blob/master/src/class-shortcode-most-viewed-posts.php](https://github.com/ibericode/koko-analytics/blob/master/src/class-shortcode-most-viewed-posts.php) Note that our code is all there on Github, so if you are a developer feel free to browse trough it. However, here on the forum we just provide support for existing features in Koko. * Thread Starter [justgert](https://wordpress.org/support/users/justgert/) * (@justgert) * [2 years, 8 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/show-postviews/#post-17093563) * Hello Lap, * Thanks for your reply! If I would have been a coder, I would never asked in the first place haha. So no, but I will take a look at the code, maybe It will lead me to something. * You guy’s really need a pro version with some extra’s 🙂 * Regards, Gert * Thread Starter [justgert](https://wordpress.org/support/users/justgert/) * (@justgert) * [2 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/show-postviews/#post-17186966) * Hello Lap and Danny, * Great to see that there is a pro version now! Could my future request become part of the pro version eventually, or .. ? * Best regards, Gert * Plugin Author [Danny van Kooten](https://wordpress.org/support/users/dvankooten/) * (@dvankooten) * [2 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/show-postviews/#post-17187259) * [@justgert](https://wordpress.org/support/users/justgert/) Would it help if we would show the number of visitors and pageviews in the admin bar for logged-in users when viewing a post on your site? * If so, please vote on this feature suggestion here: [https://github.com/ibericode/koko-analytics/discussions/211](https://github.com/ibericode/koko-analytics/discussions/211) While you’re there, we have a bunch of [other feature suggestions there too](https://github.com/ibericode/koko-analytics/discussions?discussions_q=is%3Aopen+sort%3Atop+created%3A%3E%3D2022-11-09) that you can now vote on so that we know what you want us to work on next. * Thread Starter [justgert](https://wordpress.org/support/users/justgert/) * (@justgert) * [2 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/show-postviews/#post-17187309) * Hello Danny, * Login in users don’t see admin bar nor have access to admin section. For my current post views I use another plugin, so under each (public) post it say’s : This story has been read 45826 times * Since the /wp-admin/index.php?page=koko-analytics page allready showing the amount of visitors per post, maybe it would not be very difficult to show this in the front end under each post with a shortcode. * Ofcourse I am not a programmer and is it not easy at all. It would eliminate another plugin 🙂 * Thanks for your fast reply! * Plugin Support [Lap](https://wordpress.org/support/users/lapzor/) * (@lapzor) * [2 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/show-postviews/#post-17187514) * There is a feature request for this, you can follow it here: [https://github.com/ibericode/koko-analytics/discussions/233](https://github.com/ibericode/koko-analytics/discussions/233) Thanks! * Thread Starter [justgert](https://wordpress.org/support/users/justgert/) * (@justgert) * [2 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/show-postviews/#post-17187523) * Cool!
