I do have the statistics module configured. a) However, it does not give me a total for hit across the site. b) Also, if a person comes to front page only and doesnt go further, i dont think the stats would show that.
What i mean by (a) is that if person A clicks on item 1 and person B clicks on item 2, i get 1 read in each item. But is that 2 people or 1 (the same person who clicked on two items). Also, in this case i would have to go to each item and manually total the "reads" to get a figure of hits. And "reads" doesnt correspond to IP's.
So i think a block saying how many hits on the front page would still be required.
Someone here suggested a means of doing so. I shall try, if anyone else makes it, please post me.
thanks for all the help, rahul benegal. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Date: Tue, 12 Jul 2005 07:47:08 +0200 From: "Kobus Myburgh" ITBJDM@puknet.puk.ac.za
Rahul,
A site hit counter is not particularly useful, especially with Drupal, as it has so much more capabilities.
I suggest you take a look at statistics.module (included with default installation - just <snip>

Would be grateful if you could point me to a means of capturing and displaying hit count on my drupal site (I am not a php programmer).
