[XTR] Forum View Counter is a professional add-on for XenForo 2.3+ that adds a modern and functional "Views" column to your forum list. With this add-on, you can easily track the total view count for each forum and category, allowing you to better understand the engagement dynamics of your site.

Technical Superiority & Flexibility​

• Performance-Focused Design: To avoid placing an instant load on your server, view counts are updated by an optimized batch process (Cron Job) that runs every 15 minutes. This ensures that the add-on does not negatively impact your site's performance, even on the busiest forums.
• Theme-Friendly & Flexible Settings:All settings for the add-on are managed through XenForo's Style Properties system.
  • You can enable or disable the add-on with a single click.
  • You can adjust the width and minimum width of the statistics columns in pixels to perfectly match your custom theme's design. This offers excellent flexibility to maintain design integrity.

Key Features​

• Views Column in Forum List: Adds a stylish and informative "Views" column next to the "Threads" and "Messages" statistics in your forum list.
• Cumulative (Recursive) Counting: The most powerful feature of the add-on! The view count of a parent forum includes the sum of the view counts of all its sub-forums. This allows you to see the total popularity of a main category at a single glance.
• Forum Statistics Widget Integration: Adds a new "Total Forum Views" line to the "Forum Statistics" widget, which displays your site's overall stats. This is an excellent metric for measuring the general engagement of your site.
• Manual Rebuild from AdminCP: With the "Rebuild forum view counts" option added to the tools menu in the Admin Control Panel, you can recalculate the view counts for all forums at any time.
• Permission Integration: The add-on fully complies with XenForo's existing permission system. If a user does not have permission to view a forum, they will not be able to see its view count either.
