<p>IMPORTANT: 3.0 supports cahing plugins!</p>
<p>When someone visits a post or page (not a search engine bot crawler), it adds 1 count views to its counter.</p>
<p>But this is not all, the counters are split in days, weeks, months, years, so you can see stats and display any stat day.</p>
<p>Then you can display this views with the provided shortcode [post_view] or use the widget to display a top (or less) posts list.</p>
<p>You can also use [most_view] in a post/page to get a top (or less) post most viewed.</p>
<p>If you were using another kind of plugin before and don’t want to lose your counters, this plugin can keep them!</p>


Post Views Count (Support caching plugins!)

This plugin counts views for post and pages, shortcodes [post_view] & [most_view] are available, also a widget "Most Viewed Posts" is.
