Drag the widget to the widget area where you want to show it\nBe aware it shows at least 5 digits, with a total width off 100px and height of 25px<\/p>\n\n<p>Customazible fields:\n1. Widget Title, sets the widget title in the display on your site. Default: emtpy\n2. Explanatory text before counter, you might want to explain the counter Default: empty\n3. Number of hits to start from, if you do not want to start at 0. Default: none\n4. Number of seconds after last hit before random hits will be added. It is also the mean time between two simulated hits. Default: 900\n5. The minmal user level to ignore for the counter, users, logged in, with this role, or above will not be counted, and will not influence the counter\n6. Count robot and spider hits, widget will be loaded on robot and spider hits. Since loading is the counting mechanism, you can exclude them here<\/p>\n\n<h3>Webcounters<\/h3>\n\n<p>Ever since we have websites, we have the discussion what constitutes a <code>hit<\/code>. \nHaving been a website operator since the earliest days, it is my conviction that <code>hits<\/code> are a futile \nmeasure, even for sites that generate income with ads. Page views, hits, unique visitors all these measures\nhave problems. Since I am  schooled in statistics and data gathering, I think I have a point.\nThis widget shows exactly the futility if it :-)<\/p>\n\n<!--section=installation-->\n<ol>\n<li>Upload the plugin folder to the <code>\/wp-content\/plugins\/<\/code> directory of your site<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<p>OR<\/p>\n\n<ol>\n<li>Upload the zip file through the <code>New Plugin<\/code> upload functionality<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<p>OR<\/p>\n\n<ol>\n<li><p>Download through the plugin install functionality of WordPress.<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Activate through the <code>Plugins<\/code> menu in WordPress<\/p><\/li>\n<li><p>Drag the widget, aptly named <code>Dummy Counter<\/code> to the desired area where you can place widgets<\/p><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<!--section=faq-->\n<dl>\n<dt>Is it legal, ethical or mally just?<\/dt>\n<dd><p>It is in my opninion.
