This easy to use WordPress plugin is designed to add a new feature for theme developers. Used on many of my own websites as well as those of my clients, the plugin allows me to quickly add a collection of popular posts to any theme element.
The plugin can easily be used by website owners as a WordPress Widget, adding lists of posts to the Sidebar of a WordPress website.
<h4>About the plugin</h4>
More advanced users can also call the functionality of the plugin from a WordPress shortcode by adding the code <code>[thisismyurl_easy_popular_posts]</code> to any Post or Page within WordPress.
Finally, theme authors may also take advantage of the plugin by calling the functionality directly from theme files with the code <code>thisismyurl_easy_popular_posts();</code>.
This plugin was originally authored by Christopher Ross.

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

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.
