I also have a problem. The views itself is being counted. I can see it in the Editor. But on the web page views are not refreshed.
I tried both caching methods: “Use mod_rewrite to serve cache files” and “Use PHP to serve cache files”. The same problem.
WP-PostViews 1.68 – “Use AJAX To Update Views” is “Yes”
WP Super Cache 1.4.2
Wordpress 3.9.2
@alexd72 the views are counted via AJAX But when your theme display the views, it is static and hence it shows the old view count because your caching plugin caches the whole html page.
The display of views is not done in AJAX.
Lester,
Thank you, noted. I was thinking about solution a bit. If we refresh views every time when user clicks a page then we need to reload cache of this page on every visit. This makes caching meanless.
Meantime, thank you very much for a bunch of great WP plugins. I use some of them for many years already.

Correct, that is why I don’t recommend view count plugin on high traffic site. Like YouTube View count is not instant.
I’ve not understood the solution and I’ve the same problem.
I’m not a tech and my English is not very good.
Hi,
I have the WP-PostViews 1.69 but under Settings>PostViews there is no Use AJAX To Update Views option.
I tried to install the plugin several times.
Latest WP and no caching plugins on this site
