Admin counter history

Hi all,

I have a question regarding the built in Z/C hit counter

It says "158 - 12784"

I am wondering what the 158 means and what the 12784 means

Does it mean 158 unique visitors and 12784 page hits?

Thanks

I have been trying to get help on a simple matter that i am sure can be answered bty anyone but this is my first tile trying to make a store so could someone explain how make a size button on the side of my product. I am new at this so be gentle with me.

You're asking a new question - it is not related to the thread where you posted it. You should find the most appropriate category and click New Thread. e.g. Setting Up Categories, Products, Attributes

Also include a URL to en example of what you are looking for and that will help people understand what you want!

Have you already installed Google Analytics? That's the best way to get accurate stats.

That is correct ...

The first number is the unique sessions, meaning the first hit to the site and the second is the number of pages hit once there ...

NOTE: if a customer comes in at 10:00am that is the first hit, and all pages during that session are the page hits ... but if the customer later comes back around 3:00pm and/or starts a new session, then that will act as a new first Hit then add to the additional pages hit ...

How come you have ~100 page views per session? Seems a bit high to be correct!

What version of Zen Cart are you running? :unsure:

hi,

thanks for replies:cool:

yes it seems odd to get this many page hits from only 106 visits today. tbh i have been the victim of a phishing scam where someon has used my site to build their credibilty in the "must be 10K + emails" sent out from I think their own email system.

I got 31K page views today, very very odd (106 - 31374)

I am using 1.3.9f

Could you go to your Tools ... Developers Tool Kit ... and in the bottom input box enter:
counter.php

How many files show with the line:

  require(DIR_WS_INCLUDES . 'counter.php');

yeah the ratio of visits/page views is a little weird, here is mine

09/11/2010 26886 - 38642

1 hit is 26886
2 hits are 53772

So you have a mix of single hits and multiple hits making 38642 ...
