Wordpress plugin for post view counter

[ven666detta]

I have a wordpress.org site and I was wondering what plugin any of you guys are using for your site that counts unique post views and page views...

I often use a code to show post views. Just search on google.

Open Your functions.php

Add this code:

/* Add Post Views  ------------------------------------*/
function getPostViews($postID){
    $count_key = 'post_views_count';
    $count = get_post_meta($postID, $count_key, true);
    if($count==''){
        delete_post_meta($postID, $count_key);
        add_post_meta($postID, $count_key, '0');
        return "0 View";
    }
    return $count.' Views';
}
function setPostViews($postID) {
    $count_key = 'post_views_count';
    $count = get_post_meta($postID, $count_key, true);
    if($count==''){
        $count = 0;
        delete_post_meta($postID, $count_key);
        add_post_meta($postID, $count_key, '0');
    }else{
        $count++;
        update_post_meta($postID, $count_key, $count);
    }
}

Open Single.php of your theme add this anywhere:

<?php setPostViews(get_the_ID()); ?>

And final to display the post views count(number)
Use this code (Index.php or any template..)

<?php echo getPostViews(get_the_ID()); ?>

This is what I use and works perfect

I have suggested this code before. While there is a simple code, why will we use a plugin? :D
