Upgrade Notice : 
If you have a previos version downloaded from my server (www.cuvintealese.ro), after update you may notice that now you have 2 versions of the plugin, one updated (ver. 0.5 ), and one still not updated (ver. 0.1 ).If so, just delete the not updated version.No loss whatsoever.The inconvenient comes from a mistaken “underscore” which was suposed to be a hyphen, so wordpress won’t recognize that folder on update.
The plugin shows below each post the name (link or text) of the people who visited it, based on their cookies, and their comment status approval.The plugin is a win-win model type, on one hand – for all the times when the user doesn’t feel or doesn’t have anything to comment, but he still marks his visits on your blog, and on the other hand – he gets “repaid” for his visit by listing his name under the posts he visited.
The plugin list the visitors name based on their cookies, if no cookies then a submit form will show up. 
For preventing spam, displaying the visitor’s name will need at least one comment approved. 
You can setup the plugin to show the name as link(if any) or text

Globe Visitors Counter (Lite) adds a beautiful, fast, iframe-isolated 3D visitor globe to any WordPress site. 
It instantly shows your audience geography — fully locally, privately, and without any third-party tracking.
This Lite version is designed for clarity, speed, and instant visual feedback — especially on landing pages and campaign pages.
<h3>Use Case: Instant Visual Feedback for Advertising Campaigns</h3>
<h3>The situation</h3>
You have a product or a service. 
You launch an advertising campaign:
<ul>
<li>Google Ads </li>
<li>Facebook / Instagram </li>
<li>TikTok </li>
<li>banner ads </li>
<li>email campaigns </li>
<li>any other traffic source </li>
</ul>
All traffic is sent to one landing page.
Usually what comes next is boring: 
tables, charts, numbers, dashboards, “we’ll analyze it later”.
<h3>The solution</h3>
You place Globe Visitors Counter Lite directly on the landing page.
No server setup. 
No external analytics. 
No configuration.
And you start seeing your traffic with your own eyes.
<h3>How it works (very simple)</h3>
<ol>
<li>You launch the ads </li>
<li>Visitors arrive at the page </li>
<li>Each real visitor appears as a dot on the globe — in real time, from their actual location </li>
</ol>
The globe comes alive and instantly shows: 
– whether people are coming at all 
– which countries and regions react 
– whether the campaign works or misses completely
No dots — ads don’t work. 
Dots appear — ads are alive.
<h3>Why Lite is perfect for landing pages</h3>
Lite is not deep analytics. 
It’s a visual “life indicator”.
Perfect when you need: 
– fast visual feedback 
– immediate confirmation that traffic is real 
– zero setup and zero learning curve 
– a simple “wow effect” for clients, teams, or investors
You watch, not analyze.
<h3>Key Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Interactive 3D Land-Cover globe included out of the box </li>
<li>Real-time visitor logging using a tiny local JSON file </li>
<li>Historical dots displayed automatically </li>
<li>Zero configuration, works with all themes & editors </li>
<li>Shortcode-based, easy placement on any page </li>
<li>No cookies, no remote APIs, GDPR-friendly </li>
<li>Ultra-fast loading thanks to iframe sandboxing </li>
</ul>
<h3>How It Works</h3>
When a page with the shortcode is opened, the plugin loads a fully self-contained viewer from:
/wp-content/uploads/visitors-lite-landcover/
Each visit is logged locally as a minimal record (timestamp + coordinates + city + country) into:
visitors.json
Everything stays on your server. 
No tracking pixels. 
No third-party analytics. 
No cookies.
<h3>Why Use It</h3>
<ul>
<li>Ideal for landing pages and product launches </li>
<li>Visualizes global audience instantly </li>
<li>Safe for cached pages and CDNs </li>
<li>Works even on heavily optimized sites </li>
</ul>
<h3>When You May Need the Full Version</h3>
Lite is intentionally simple and fast.
If you need: 
– long-term statistics 
– multiple pages or sites 
– extended visitor history 
– advanced visual modes and skins 
– more control and customization
…then the Full (Pro) version may be a better fit.
Lite remains perfect for single pages, launches, tests, and quick visual validation.
