Hi,

Take a look at this Article Manager users post. They include an example of the article page that includes a page view counter in action and a link to get the script:

I remember this script from last year, as much as I tried installing it there is something wrong. I can't get it to work Frown

I tried everything I know, I checked the path to perl, I tried different path types, I changed CHMOD, I changed the script files to .cgi, I republished the articles, ... etc.

I even tried everything again tonight but nothing made this script work with me Crazy


just to make sure, I put the script in my cgi folder, and I included this code :

<!--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/textcounter/counter.cgi"-->

in my html articlePage file.

should this be changed by any chance?

Try using the following

<!--#include virtual="/cgi-bin/textcounter/counter.pl" -->

Also I had to chmod my cgi script to 755 to get it to function

One other thing is to make sure in counter.pl that your uri is set to

@valid_uri = ('/');

You can play with this setting after you get the script running.

I discovered that virtual includes do not work with me for some reason! is there some other way around this? I think that's my main problem.

I tried the PHP includes but it gives me an error message Frown what other options do I have?
