how to show post views on single.php? What I tried:
function getPostViews($postID){
$count_key = 'post_views_count';
$count = get_post_meta($postID, $count_key, true);
if($count==''){
delete_post_meta($postID, $count_key);
add_post_meta($postID, $count_key, '0');
return "0 View";
}
return $count.' Views';
}
function setPostViews($postID) {
$count_key = 'post_views_count';
$count = get_post_meta($postID, $count_key, true);
if($count==''){
$count = 0;
delete_post_meta($postID, $count_key);
add_post_meta($postID, $count_key, '0');
}else{
$count++;
update_post_meta($postID, $count_key, $count);
}
}
// Remove issues with prefetching adding extra views
remove_action( 'wp_head', 'adjacent_posts_rel_link_wp_head', 10, 0);
It works well and counts the views but it counts views every time even a single viewer refreshes the page again and again. I want to play with session cookies but don't know how to achieve that. What I tried to achieve that is I replaced the second function with the below function:
function setPostViews($postID) {
$count_key = 'post_views_count';
$count = get_post_meta($postID, $count_key, true);
if($count==''){
$count = 0;
delete_post_meta($postID, $count_key);
add_post_meta($postID, $count_key, '0');
}else{
/*
* Check the cookie is exist or not.
* If not the set cookie for some time interval and
* increase the count
*/
if(!isset($_COOKIE['wpai_visited_ip']))
$count++;
update_post_meta($postID, $count_key, $count);
// Get IP address
$visit_ip_addr = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
// Set the cookie
setcookie('wpai_visited_ip', $visit_ip_addr, time()+ (60 * 1));
}
}
But it doesn't work, I got the following error:
Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at C:\xampp\htdocs\portfolio\wp-includes\class.wp-styles.php:287) in C:\xampp\htdocs\portfolio\wp-content\themes\portfolio\breadcrumb.php on line 152
Please help if anyone can do it for me. I just need to increase views counter when a new user views my post in a single session.

Reset to default 2Your implementation of the getPostViews function looks fine, and I don't see an issue having that inside your single.php or breadcrumbs.php.
However, I would move both functions into your functions.php (more info here) and rather than calling setPostViews inside single/breadcrumbs.php, I would attach it to a WordPress action.
<?php
//...inside your functions.php...
add_action( 'init', 'fa_setpostviews' );
function fa_setpostviews() {
global $post;
// Do not continue if we do not have a post ID
if ( ! isset( $post->ID ) ) {
return;
}
// Do not continue if the user is not logged in
if ( ! is_user_logged_in() ) {
return;
}
// Make sure the user is on a single post.
if ( ! is_single() ) {
return;
}
/*
* Note! The above if statements could be combined into one.
*/
$postID = $post->ID;
$count_key = 'post_views_count';
$count = get_post_meta( $postID, $count_key, true );
if ( $count == '' ) {
$count = 0;
delete_post_meta( $postID, $count_key );
add_post_meta( $postID, $count_key, '0' );
} else {
if ( ! isset( $_COOKIE['wpai_visited_ip'] ) ) {
$count ++;
}
update_post_meta( $postID, $count_key, $count );
$visit_ip_addr = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
setcookie( 'wpai_visited_ip', $visit_ip_addr, time() + ( 60 * 1 ) );
}
}
The above function checks if the user is logged in, if the user is on a single post page and then executes the count script as before.
Note: This is on the init hook, which may not be the best hook for your uses. Init is called multiple times and you may want to hook into wp instead. See more here on hooks and actions: https://codex.wordpress/Plugin_API/Action_Reference

setPostViews- is it set to hook in somewhere? For example:add_action('init','setPostViews');– Tom Commented Jan 12, 2020 at 13:25
