How to remove the Views - They are not counting correctly

asked 11 years ago

The views of my Questions seem to only be counting registered users? Although questions have been viewed 100+ times (according to analytics) the DWQA counter shows 4 views. I would like to hide the view count if anyone knows a way for me to do this.

question

Thanks for any help.

Hi Miranda,
The analytics report you are talking about may also be counting the views by the search engines crawlers and bots,make sure the views you see in report are counted +1 only for the humans,if yes then it may be a problem else the view counter is working fine i hope you are using the updated version of the plugin and wordpress
Thanks

I checked your site and found that indeed your views counter is not working even after visiting the question two three times it might be a conflict between the advertisement script you are using for showing text based adds.

If you want to remove the views count in the Q&A page, below is our instruction:
Firstly, follow the jetpack’s guideline in the Blog article on how to use Edit CSS here. http://designwall.com/blog/using-jetpack-custom-css-for-your-wordpress-site/
Then add the code to the Edit Css.

.list-dwqa-question .dwqa-view {
    display: none;
}

When I applied this code in Edit CSS, nothing changed on the front end. Has the code changed?

This code only work with the old version, we have updated and released the latest version and if you want to remove the view box, you can add the following code:

.dwqa-questions-list .dwqa-question-item .dwqa-question-stats span.dwqa-views-count { display: none; }
