 * There’s a way to sort post list on blog pages like home and archive by popularity(
   post view)?
 * Actually I’m doing something similar ordering the post by price adding this line:
   
   <?php query_posts($query_string . ‘&meta_key=price&orderby=meta_value_num’); ?
   > Just before this: <?php $j = 0; if (have_posts()) : while (have_posts()) : 
   the_post();
 * Thank you for the help and for the great module!

 * Unfortunately WPP does not have integration with the WP_Query object, so doing
   this isn’t possible.
 * There’s a workaround posted by [@radgh](https://wordpress.org/support/users/radgh/)
   that, while a little bit more complex, works: [How To: Sort a custom query by views (All time, monthly, weekly, or daily)](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/how-to-sort-a-custom-query-by-views-all-time-monthly-weekly-or-daily).
