    On the documentation for GD Google Analytics, it says that this:

    We are the only Directory script to offer any sort of meaningful stats to the listing owners, at best others offered a total page view count which really is pointless without more into like dates.

    The users on my site are not interested in time-based stats; they want total page view count.

    I’ve explored the options and cannot see any way to get this. Am I missing something, or is this impossible? If it’s impossible with the current featureset, can anyone give me suggestions for how I would go about getting this? It’s quite important to my users.

    Hi there,

    Are you able to display the dropdown and select the Weekly/Monthly/Yearly filter as shown in the video on the documentation page? https://wpgeodirectory.com/docs/gd-core-plugin-google-analytics/ If you don’t have that, do you think you can share WP temp admin access to your site so we can take a better look? You can post the details here using the private reply option below.

    Thanks!

    Hi Kor, thanks for the reply.

    I am already able to do that. The issue I have is that my site is quite low traffic, and the listing owners are not SEO wizards who care about finding meaningful statistics. They do not want to know about “this year vs. last year”.

    I’m therefore looking for a really basic “vanity metric” to make the listing owners feel that this site is worth it for them. They just want to know that their listing is getting viewers, and that’s why I would like a “total pageviews for all time” to be visible by default.

    Hi,

    that’s not an option unfortunately. You should probably look into a hit counter plugin.

    Thanks

    I’ve found a plugin that will do it: Post Pageviews
