Eyer View Counter – WordPress Posts/Pages view counter with more advanced analytics (pro)

Description

WordPress View Counter Plugin: Eyer View Counter & Stats (Free & Pro)

Introduction to Eyer View Counter & Stats

Welcome to the official FramewireUI digital store. Managing a modern WordPress blog, digital magazine, or WooCommerce storefront requires reliable visibility into reader engagement. Heavy external tracking scripts slow down browser rendering speeds, inflate database sizes, and require intrusive cookie consent banners. Eyer View Counter and Stats is a high-performance WordPress view counter plugin engineered to log real-time impressions locally with zero script bloat.

Eyer operates on a clean modular architecture: a lightweight Free Base Plugin (designed for WordPress.org) for aggregate post, page, and product view counting, and the premium Eyer View Counter Pro Add-on for detailed session analytics, CSV exports, and global country lookups. Explore our complete tools catalog on the FramewireUI Shop Page.

Free vs. Pro Add-On Comparison

Eyer provides flexible tools depending on whether you need simple daily view badges or deep administrative session telemetry:

Core Features of the Free Edition

The free version of our WordPress view counter plugin delivers essential impression stats out of the box:

• Session-Based Tab Tracking: Tracks counts once per browser-tab session to prevent artificial inflation while offering optional IP hash limits.
• Dashboard Analytics: Displays daily totals, overall view counts, and most-viewed content for posts, pages, and WooCommerce products.
• Admin List Columns: Adds scannable view count columns to your admin lists for Posts, Pages, and Products.
• Flexible Display Options: Embed stats using the [evc_view_count] shortcode, native Gutenberg blocks, Elementor widgets, or dynamic tags.
• Multiple Execution Modes: Supports Live, On-Load, and AJAX display modes to guarantee compatibility with static page caching.

Unlock Advanced Analytics with Eyer View Counter Pro

The Eyer View Counter Pro Add-on extends the free plugin to provide deep insights for agencies, digital marketers, and power users:

1. Filterable Session Telemetry & Reporting

Analyze granular browser-session activity directly within your WordPress dashboard. Filter results by date ranges, specific post types, or user roles.

2. Role-Based Session Tables & CSV Exports

Display frontend or backend session tables with strict role-based permissions. Export filtered admin session logs or visible frontend table rows directly to CSV format for client reporting.

3. Support for All Custom Post Types

Expand tracking beyond standard posts and WooCommerce products to include custom portfolios, documentation portals, event listings, and LMS course modules.

4. Local MaxMind GeoLite2 Country Lookups

Integrate optional local MaxMind GeoLite2 country databases to identify geographic traffic sources without passing visitor data to third parties.

Developer API & Template Usage

Display view counts in custom child themes using the official template helper:

<?php
if ( function_exists( 'evc_get_post_views' ) ) {
    echo esc_html( number_format_i18n( evc_get_post_views( get_the_ID() ) ) );
}
?>

Or embed shortcodes directly into your content layouts:

[evc_view_count post_id="42" icons="visibility" before_text="<strong>Read count:</strong>" after_text=" readers"]

Performance Engineering & Web Standards

Every query executed by our WordPress view counter plugin follows strict coding standards set by WordPress.org. Front-end badges generate clean, semantic HTML complying with guidelines from the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and pass performance tests on Google PageSpeed Insights.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need the Free plugin installed to use the Pro version?

Yes. Pro is an add-on that extends the core functionality provided by the free base plugin. Both plugins must remain installed and active.

Is Eyer View Counter compatible with LiteSpeed and WP Rocket?

Yes! Eyer processes view tracking via background AJAX and REST API requests, allowing caching plugins to serve cached static pages while maintaining 100% accurate count data.

How does license activation work?

The Pro add-on validates your license key securely against the FramewireUI licensing API. Validations are cached locally for up to 12 hours to prevent unnecessary external requests.
