 * Hi,
 * I can only get 1 click counted. After that, AdRotate counts the exposures, but
   it doesn’t count more than 1 click. The max clicks is set to 1000. Does anyone
   have this problem, too?
 * Thanks

 * I am having the opposite problem. Ads in my banner manager are acquiring clicks
   even though nobody is clicking them. Did you ever find a resolution to your problem?

 * Per user 1 click per 24 hours is counted.
    Impressions keep counting as that 
   is simply the times the ad is shown.
 * Click counting without people clicking them is usually caused by bots.

 * Great plugin – looks like it will be a keeper! 🙂
 * Anyone know if I can decrease the time-frame for clicks counted 1x per 24 hours
   to 1x per 4 hours, or 8 hours or something like so. Would this be as simple as
   adjusting a few lines of code?
 * cheers!

 * I may have figured this out – can someone confirm that in the adrotate-out.php
   file, just a couple of lines in there is the following:
 *     ```
       <code>$now = date('U');
       $tomorrow = $now + 86400;</code>
       ```
   
 * 86400 is 24 hours in seconds… so if I wanted to count a new click per user every
   4 hours, that would be 60secs/min x 60mins/hour x 4 hours = 14,400
 * Is this the only place that needs to be changed?
 * Cheers!

 * Wait a sec… changing this number may screw up the ‘scheduling’ aspect of the 
   plugin… haha… sorry, I’m all over the place.
 * Can someone please confirm the safe place to change the 24 hour click tracking
   to a different time-frame 🙂
