Removing the ( ) around count

nvm
Found it (/includes/public/display-posts.php)

You’re right. Was just testing different customization options …

BTW, I have noticed that ajax is updating hourly, “on the clock” (Ajaxurl based, Transients API not enabled), can this be changed to for instance every 10 minutes?

Thx,

OK, I’ll try to explain it a little better. My aim is to make the top ten list dynamic within a shorter time period. Could be 12 hours or so. The 12 hours is no problem with your fine plugin. What I see, though, is that +1 views are counted “now”, while “old” views are recalculated only every hour. So every hour I’ll have a drop of views instead of a more “floating” calculation of the views.

I was testing by having a 4-hour period. And on the hour (8:00, 9:00 etc) these drops was experienced. Therefore, but is of course dependent on whether the tables include minutes, I was wondering if the plugin was set so the ajax only requested newer than 4 hour views on the hour.
Hope it make better sense now.

Yes, it is disabled (and has never been enabled).

Thanks for your reply on this. I concluded exactly what you are pointing out. It is a tradeoff between the amount of data stored and the feeling of an active site. One idea however, could be to make an option for update every 15 minutes. This would quadruple the data in the table. Recommended for high traffic sites would then be NOT to count total views based on this table, and, at the same time having the 15 minutes table automatically cleaned for entries more than 48 hours old or the like.

Fair.
