Hi guys,

Is there any way I can determine the number of visits (reads) on an Article (or a page)?

I am thinking about an index property that can help me identify the "Most read" articles.

Thank you,

Adrian

Hi Adrian

There is no easy way. The info is in tracking or stat tables, so you might be able to fetch it. Remember the data in those table are raw and that 80+% of traffic on a website these days is not real trafic.

Maybe the easiest is to create a field on the article and then make a simple js that calls a url updating that field when a user visits. Or something.

Hi Nicolai,

Thank you for the response. I imagined it's not easy and I know that we've done some hacks in the past to achieve this.

I just thought I should circle back before trying the ninja tricks :)

Thank you very much,

Adrian
