Display Post Views & CPT Count with Crocoblock Jetengine | Elementor | WordPress

You might have face problem displaying Post Views for the CPT especially if your website is a newspaper, property listing or classified. In this tutorial, i will show you how to create it with few lines of code in JetEngine Crocoblock.

In addition to that it covers how to show total number of CPT.

Code to be inserted in Child theme:
$meta_values = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), "posts-count", true);
$v2 = (int)$meta_values + 1;
update_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'posts-count', $v2);

Finding your channel made my day. I have been looking hard for someone who explains JetEngine more clearly than the docs on their website. I have been using Crocoblock for the past 4 years but I've only scratched the surface of what is possible I'm sure. That you are explaining some PHP code that interacts with it as well is also a big help. Thanks Liked! Subscribed!

Excellent video!!
I don't know what I'm doing wrong but you wouldn't be telling me..
I have put the code from the plugins code snippet

$meta_values = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), "counter-properties", true);
$v2 = (int)$meta_values +1;
update_post_meta( get_the_ID(), "counter-properties", $v2);

Thanks for your time!!

This is great information! I was already tracking this data from Google Analytics, but it can be attractive for high hit content for advertisers to access this data on my website :) Thank you

[WOWACC]

Great, I hope you continue to develop content about Jetengine

[acarolalvarenga]

I'd like to add that for each post of a logged user. For example: a user visits a post and I want to tell him: "You've seen this post 4 times". It's for a college content review post type...

Anyone who faces a problem due to a recent update, please encapsulate your code in a filter as below

function increment_post_views() {
if (is_single()) {
$post_id = get_the_ID();
$views = get_post_meta($post_id, 'post-count', true);

// If the 'post_views' meta field doesn't exist, initialize it to 1
if (empty($views)) {
$views = 1;
} else {
$views = intval($views) + 1;
}

// Update the 'post_views' meta field with the incremented value
update_post_meta($post_id, 'post-count', $views);
}
}

add_action('wp', 'increment_post_views');

First of all thank you for this video
But there are two problems when I use this code
function view_counter($content) {
$meta_values = get_post_meta( get_the_ID(), "post-count", true);
$v2 = (int)$meta_values + 1;
update_post_meta( get_the_ID(), 'post-count', $v2);

}
add_filter('the_content', 'view_counter');
First one is the pages content disappeared.
I solved this by adding this line
return $content ;
The Second problem that the code works on edit post type page but doesn't work on a single page
The single page that I use is Crocoblock > Theme Builder > Single page
If any help I will be appreciate thanks

Works great, thanks;
does not work with caching plugin, possible to do the same thing in AJAX or JS? Thanks

[serdimay]

Thank you for the video. Yes I would love to see how you build the whole system from scratch. Sometimes to better understand some features, you have to explain what environment you are using it for. Waiting for the tutorial as you promised. Thank you again. This is awesome. But the way why didn't you just use the CPT or post count from Jetengine without using the codes in the child theme?

[werbeagenturpr-pro]

Hello, is there a way to trigger the counter with a time delay, so that it is prevented that a visitor drives the counter up by constantly loading the page. Example: The page is updated several times in one minute but the counter only counts up every minute or every 2 minutes.

[mauricioalejandro]

Excellent!! Thanks for sharing your knowledge!
Query:

*Is it possible to make a listing impression counter?

[soyeb_ali]

Hello muqsit, how can I make only signle views for single user. 1 view = 1 user. I think this is done via user meta query.

[SixGamerHeads]

Hello, you are amazing.
by the way, do you know how to add numbers (numbering) to the posts yo my listing grid? and could you tell me how please?

for example, in my Listing, I want it looks like this:

Number 1*, Title Post, then the descriptions
Number 2*, Title Post, then the descriptions
Number 3*, Title Post, then the descriptions
etc...

* the numbers mean, it's automatically added, and ascending by date or name. according to the number of posts that appear on the page/archive.

thank you.

[luldlfc]
