Used Page Views and Avail Page Views in Forum Info or Footer

[jsf]

Forum URL: (private)

In my forum, there are regular forum members who want to support ad-free page views.  Specifically, they would like to see for the current month Used Page Views and Available Page Views.  Can that information be added in the Forum Information & Statistics area, or alternatively in a footer?

Thanks,

John

Hi

Unfortunately, that is not possible. It is the first time i have seen someone request something like this, so i will label this as a feature request.

Hi Craig,

Thanks for responding.  The members are very appreciative of the forum, which replaced a non-ProBoards forum that became defunct when the previous owner disappeared (most likely passed away) without any succession plan in place.  They want to help, and while those of us with admin functions would be willing to take care of everything, the members want to support the forum.  That's why seeing the page views info is interesting to them.

Maybe this is something you can display as text and update manually once per week, or as often as you choose, and it could still provide your members with helpful information.

For example, on my forum I list the top 3 posters and their post counts on the main page. However, those numbers don't update automatically.  People appreciate seeing the information, but I update it manually a few times per month.

I just thought about doing that, and was going to rule it out but thinking it over, I think that really is a good idea.  Can put it in the header along with the member who last contributed.  I did start a thread to acknowledge each one who contributed, but the header with the member name and count is a great idea!  Thanks.
