Popular posts

Hi all,

I saw I can filter content in several ways: date, categories tags, etc…

Is there some way to sort content (mostly posts) by popularity? For being popular I mean most viewed.

I would like having an element showing the X most popular posts. It would be nice being able to set a timeframe also. E.g. “most read articles of the week./month”

I understood that likes and similar are not stored in the db hence are volatile info. Is there something you can use for page/post views?

 

Thank you in advance

Thanks I will try it.
Given that I do not use sidebar I will use the shortcode.
Just one question: will the widget/element get your theme style?
Sorry for the silly question but I’m a WP newbie.

Thank you in advance.

Sadly, I noted that if I add the shortcode into a page manually (I have no sidebar so I’m forced to do so)

[wpp header="I più letti del mese" range="monthly" limit=5 post_type="post" cat="-news" order_by="views" thumbnail_width=70 thumbnail_height=70 post_html="<li>{thumb"} {title} {stats}</li>]

The shortcode does not appear into VC editor. Even worse if I save the page via the visual composer editor, my shortcode is being erased! How I can leave my shortcode into the page?

I added manually the WPP shortcode:

[wpp header="I più letti del mese" range="monthly" limit=5 post_type="post" cat="-news" order_by="views" thumbnail_width=70 thumbnail_height=70 post_html="<li>{thumb"} {title} {stats}</li>]

Hello, use a text element or html element then add the shortcode there 🙂
