## Skildring

Netstan Count Lite counts how many times each of your posts is viewed and shows 
you the numbers.

 * **View badge** – an eye icon with the post’s view count. It appears above the
   content of single posts automatically, can be placed anywhere with the `[netstan_count]`
   shortcode, and themes can print it themselves.
 * **Dashboard** – views today, in the last 7 days, in the last 30 days and all 
   time; a daily chart (30 days) and a weekly chart (12 weeks); top posts and top
   categories for a date range you choose.
 * **Accurate counts** – visits from logged-in staff and from known bots are ignored,
   and a reload within 30 minutes is not counted twice.
 * **Works with page caching** – views are recorded by a small script after the 
   page loads, so cached pages are counted too.
 * **Private by design** – no IP addresses, user agents or visitor IDs are stored;
   only a daily total per post.
 * **Your data, your call** – view history is kept if you delete the plugin, unless
   you opt in to removing it under Netstan Count > Settings.

#### Shortcode

    ```
    [netstan_count] shows the badge for the current post. `[netstan_count id="123"]` shows it for a specific post.
    ```

#### For theme developers

Call `netstan_count_badge( $post_id )` (returns escaped HTML) to print the badge
yourself. To load the counts for a whole list of posts in a single query first, 
call `netstan_count_prefetch( $post_ids )`. Declare `add_theme_support( 'netstan-
count' )` so the plugin doesn’t also add its automatic badge, or use the `netstan_count_theme_renders_badge`
filter.

### Third-party libraries

This plugin bundles [Chart.js](https://www.chartjs.org) 4.5.1 (MIT License) in `
vendor/chart.js`, used to draw the dashboard charts. Chart.js’s own bundle includes
[@kurkle/color](https://github.com/kurkle/color) (MIT License). Source: https://
github.com/chartjs/Chart.js

### Privacy

Netstan Count Lite stores a daily view total per post (post ID, date, count). It
stores no IP address, user agent or visitor identifier, and sends no data to any
external service.

It sets one first-party cookie, `netstan_count_viewed_{post ID}`, on a visitor’s
first view of a post. It expires after 30 minutes, contains no personal information,
and only prevents reloads from being counted repeatedly. Suggested wording is added
to Settings > Privacy > Policy Guide.

## Installasjon

 1. Upload the plugin to `/wp-content/plugins/`, or install it from the Plugins screen.
 2. Activate it. Views are counted from then on.
 3. Open **Netstan Count** in the admin menu to see your stats.

## Vanlege spm.

### Does it work with my theme?

Yes. Counting and the dashboard don’t depend on the theme, and the badge is added
above single-post content automatically. You can turn that off under Netstan Count
> Settings and use the shortcode instead.

### Does it work with caching plugins?

Yes. Views are sent from the visitor’s browser to a REST endpoint, so a cached page
is counted like any other.

### Are my visitors tracked?

No. Only a per-post, per-day view total is stored. A first-party cookie that expires
after 30 minutes stops one visitor’s reloads from inflating the count; it holds 
no personal information.

### Will I lose my view history if I upgrade to Netstan Count?

No. Both editions use the same data table. Deactivate Netstan Count Lite before 
activating Netstan Count; the two can’t be active together.

### Who can see the dashboard?

Administrators (anyone who can manage the site’s settings).

### Does it work on multisite?

It isn’t built for network-wide use and can’t be network-activated. Activate it 
on each site individually from that site’s Plugins screen; every site then keeps
its own counts. It has not been tested on a multisite network.

### Which versions of WordPress and PHP does it need?

WordPress 6.0 or newer and PHP 7.4 or newer.
