DD Post Views
v2.9.2 · by Marin Horvat
Lightweight post view counting for WordPress posts using a custom database table and client-side cache-friendly REST counting.
About this plugin
DD Post Views counts published post views for guests while preserving compatibility with full-page cache systems. It stores counts in the existing dd_post_views table, uses localStorage for a lightweight visitor cooldown, and avoids per-visitor transient records.
Logged-in users are not counted. A simple User-Agent bot filter is used for noise reduction. The plugin does not use external services and does not send view data to third parties.
