Issue status update for http://drupal.org/node/22565 Post a follow up: http://drupal.org/project/comments/add/22565 Project: Drupal Version: cvs Component: statistics.module Category: bug reports Priority: normal Assigned to: Robin Monks Reported by: massabob Updated by: Robin Monks Status: patch (ready to be committed) /the term "access statistics counter" doesn't tell me anything. The counters are for posts -- I think that should be reflected in the permission's name. / Suggestions: view node access counter view node view counter access node view counter view node hit counter I rather like "view node access counter". Dries, would this satisify you? /Is this different from the 'Count content views' setting?/ Yes, on two counts. * These permissions are for users, not for admins. The count content views setting changes both * This setting lets the administrator choose specific groups to see the counter (eg, moderators, or only registered users) Robin Robin Monks Previous comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Wed, 11 May 2005 07:51:40 +0000 : massabob Information about '%count reads' in node's footer is shown to unprivileged users. I suggest that function statistics_link in statistics.module should be corrected in this way: // Original function statistics_link($type, $node = 0, $main = 0) { global $id; $links = array(); if ($type != 'comment' && variable_get('statistics_display_counter', 0)) { $statistics = statistics_get($node->nid); if ($statistics) { $links[] = format_plural($statistics['totalcount'], '1 read', '%count reads'); } } return $links; } // Fixed function statistics_link($type, $node = 0, $main = 0) { global $id; $links = array(); if ($type != 'comment' && variable_get('statistics_display_counter', 0) && user_access('display statistics')) { $statistics = statistics_get($node->nid); if ($statistics) { $links[] = format_plural($statistics['totalcount'], '1 read', '%count reads'); } } return $links; } The only change is in "&& user_access('display statistics')" on line 98. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fri, 27 May 2005 01:44:25 +0000 : RobRoy Should read user_access('access statistics') not user_access('display statistics'). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fri, 27 May 2005 11:19:36 +0000 : Robin Monks Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/user.access.stats.patch (730 bytes) And here that is in patch form. Robin ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Wed, 01 Jun 2005 04:09:16 +0000 : Steven I'm not sure about this patch: often, read counts are shown directly on the site. But if the permission for viewing the counts is the same as the permission for accessing the administrator's detailed logs, then you wouldn't give that to everyone. There is already an option to choose whether counts are displayed. Perhaps we could change that to "No" "For priviledged users" "For everyone". In last case it acts like it is now, it the second case it requires "access statistics" permission. What do you think? ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Wed, 01 Jun 2005 14:13:54 +0000 : Robin Monks Sounds good to me. I'll try to code something up for this. Robin ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thu, 09 Jun 2005 13:55:49 +0000 : Robin Monks Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/authstats.patch (2.26 KB) Here is the patch. Uses a switch to choose between signed in users, all users, users with permissions or noone. Robin ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thu, 09 Jun 2005 14:08:16 +0000 : Robin Monks I tested this patch with various settings on my local install and it worked fine. Robin ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thu, 09 Jun 2005 16:30:25 +0000 : Bèr Kessels Is there a reason why you check for $user->uid? Whaen someone has "access statistics" set to anonymous users, your check for $user->uid will override taht settings. Not good IMO. <?php $group .= form_radios(t('Display counter values'), 'statistics_display_counter', variable_get('statistics_display_counter', 0), array('1' => t('For all users'), '2' => t('For authenticated users'), '3' => t('For priviledged users'), '0' => t('Disabled')), t('Display how many times given content has been viewed.')); ?> is very inconsistent. please use *only* the permissions page to set permissions, and do not create new permissions-alike settings in any configuration pages. I would say a simple check for user_access('access statistics') will do the trick ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thu, 09 Jun 2005 16:32:53 +0000 : Bèr Kessels sorry, i meant to say user_access('access statistics counter'), not user_access('access statistics'). We already have "access statistics'" an additional "access statistics counter" for showing users the counter should work Ber ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thu, 09 Jun 2005 16:49:48 +0000 : Robin Monks Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/statistics.module (23.1 KB) OK, here is a patch to that end... Robin ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thu, 09 Jun 2005 17:00:50 +0000 : Robin Monks Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/authstats_0.patch (1 KB) Um, let's just pretend I didn't just upload the entire stats module. OK? OK! Robin ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thu, 09 Jun 2005 17:05:59 +0000 : Robin Monks Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/authstats_1.patch (1.06 KB) Hotfix. Robin ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thu, 09 Jun 2005 17:11:23 +0000 : Robin Monks Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/authstats_2.patch (1.11 KB) Hopefuly the final version. Thanks to chx and berkes for pulling it apart ;-) Robin ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thu, 09 Jun 2005 17:21:38 +0000 : Bèr Kessels +1 for this patch. it adds functionality, but does not add clutter nor any config options. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fri, 10 Jun 2005 02:39:06 +0000 : frjo +1 I have implemented the patch authstats_2.patch on my site running Drupal 4.6.1 and it works well. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fri, 01 Jul 2005 08:10:22 +0000 : mfb +1 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fri, 01 Jul 2005 12:03:56 +0000 : Jose A Reyero +1 I tested the patch, works fine, and I'm always for "more options" ;-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Mon, 01 Aug 2005 21:17:48 +0000 : Junyor +1. Using this on my site now. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Tue, 02 Aug 2005 21:53:15 +0000 : Robin Monks Attachment: http://drupal.org/files/issues/node_counter_permission.patch (2.97 KB) This patch revision removes the duplicate show counter option from the settings. Thanks UnConeD!

The counters are for posts -- I think that should be reflected in the permission's name. Is this different from the 'Count content views' setting?
