<p>Similar to the original native one, this plugin let you define the range of stats to retrieve.<br />
Also you will be able to add the category name of the post.</p>
<p>Finally, this widget will only display posts (and not pages too).<br />
This plugin read the top 100 of posts/pages and keep only the X first POSTS (X = number defined in the widget parameters). So, you can have less posts than requested.</p>
<p>Jetpack is required to work.<br />
A wordpress account and your blog must be linked.</p>
<p>You can find a demo here : http://www.spoils.fr/<br />
The widget is named “Articles populaires” on the sidebar.</p>
