Removing view count

[jimmyswan]

Hello,

How can I remove the view count (number of views) for all articles? For me it appears on the Index.php?action=show&cat=3 pages.

I searched the templates but could not find where to remove this.

Thanks, =J

Hi,

I can provide a hack, but you have to change the code after each phpMyFAQ update.

That's fine, a hack will work. I'll remember to change it for each update.

Hi,

please open inc/Faq.php at line 445 and change this code

Code: Select all

                $listItem = sprintf('<li>%s<span id="viewsPerRecord"><br /><span class="little">(%s)</span>%s</span></li>',
                    $oLink->toHtmlAnchor(),
                    $this->plr->GetMsg('plmsgViews', $visits),
                    ($row->sticky == 1) ? '<br /><br />' : '');

to this

Code: Select all

                $listItem = sprintf('<li>%s</li>',
                    $oLink->toHtmlAnchor());

bye

Would be great to have this as an option in a future version (same with complete removal of social sharing which already seems to be some sort of standalone option in the templates).

May I kindly know how to do this in v2.8.1 ?
No much luck modifying Faq.php

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

for 2.8.1, it's line 433 in inc/PMF/Faq.php, change

Code: Select all

                $renderedItems[] = sprintf(
                    '<li%s>%s<span id="viewsPerRecord"><br /><small>(%s)</small></span></li>',
                    ($row->sticky == 1) ? ' class="sticky-faqs"' : '',
                    $oLink->toHtmlAnchor(),
                    $this->plr->GetMsg('plmsgViews', $visits)
                );

to

Code: Select all

                $renderedItems[] = sprintf(
                    '<li%s>%s</li>',
                    ($row->sticky == 1) ? ' class="sticky-faqs"' : '',
                    $oLink->toHtmlAnchor()
                );
