Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Post Views Counter – Lumo View Pulse
Yes, and that is the reason it exists. In Beacon mode the count happens after the page has loaded, with a short-lived token tied to that specific post, term or archive, so a page served straight from cache is still counted. Server mode is the exception: it only sees uncached PHP requests, and Setup warns you if a known cache plugin is active while it is on.
No. Raw IPs are never written to the plugin tables. Default de-duplication uses a session cookie or browser storage. The optional strict unique window stores a one-way HMAC built with your site salt, not the IP. Reports and exports contain no IP addresses and no visit hashes.
No. There is no third-party script, no remote API and no account. Views are written to tables in your own database and stay there.
It stores no raw IPs and keeps daily aggregates rather than a per-visitor log. You can exclude roles and IP ranges, honour Do Not Track, choose a cookie or cookieless browser storage for de-duplication, and set a retention window after which daily rows are pruned. As always, the final privacy assessment depends on how you configure your own site.
The front-end payload is small and the count happens after load, so it does not block rendering. Totals are aggregated rows rather than a growing visit log. On busy sites with a persistent object cache you can buffer writes and flush them on a schedule.
[lumovipu_views], [lumovipu_top] and [lumovipu_site]. There are also blocks for view count, top content, author views, term views and the site total, plus a most-viewed widget.
Use 'orderby' => 'lumovipu_views' in WP_Query. In Elementor Pro, set the loop Query ID to lumovipu_views. Gutenberg Query Loop, JetEngine, GenerateBlocks, Beaver Builder, Kadence Blocks Pro and Lumo Pro Toolkit loops read the same data.
Yes. Products are counted out of the box, the badge can appear on product cards, single product pages and archives, and product lists in wp-admin get a sortable Views column. HPOS compatibility is declared.
Yes. Tools imports from Post Views Counter, WP-PostViews, Statify, the Lumo CDN addon, or the post_views_count / views custom fields, and you can analyse the data before anything is written. Pick Add to existing, Replace, Skip existing, Keep higher or Fill empty only. Deactivate the old counter first so a view is not counted twice.
Yes: echo lumovipu_get_views( get_the_ID() ); for the raw number, or lumovipu_render_views( get_the_ID() ); for the styled badge. lumovipu_get_top() and lumovipu_render_top() return or print a popular list.
