How do I make my counter visible on my page ?
|
|
|
Make sure you've selected 'visible' in your user settings.
On the pages you wish to make it visible you need to set the showme
variable. That's how you do it:
<script>showme='y'; st='img';</script>
<script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"
src="pphlogger.js"></script>
<noscript>
<img alt="" src="http://<www.your-host.com>/<your-install-dir>/pphlogger.php?id=phpee_com&showme=y&st=img">
</noscript>
If Javascript is disabled, the NOSCRIPT-Tag will run instead of
pphlogger.js. In this case screen resolution / color will not be
logged.
If you wish to display your counter somewhere else on your page,
use showhits.php
This script will not log your visitors or modify your database.
Its only purpose is to show the counter.
<img alt="" src="<your-install-dir>/showhits.php?id=your_username">
for further information please check the PowerPhlogger documentation:
doc.html#visibility

What's showhits.php for?
|
|
|
showhits.php makes your counter visible, no matter if you set it
to visible or not in your user settings. By calling this script
you'll be able to show the following information:
[type] = hits | pageviews | today | todayviews | month | monthviews
call it like this:
<img src="showhits.php?id=your_username">
, or like this:
<img src="showhits.php?id=your_username&type=[type]">
For further information please check the documentation inside of
showhits.php or read the PowerPhlogger documentation:
doc.html#visibility

How do I track referers in frames ?
|
|
|
edit your pphlogger.js file:
uncomment (remove the '//') the following line on top of the file:
pp_frames = TRUE;
WARNING: This may cause a Javascript security error on several browsers
in case your frameset is not located on the same domain.
For people using a "stealth frame" like Namezero or MyDomain
offers, it will be impossible to track referrers!

I need to use .php3 or some other extension, not .php.
|
|
|
The extension .php is the prefered default extension for all PHP4
versions. It is the extension used by the PHP team and Zend.com.
For this reason, PowerPhlogger comes with this extension.
The easiest way is to use this extension is to make Apache or your
webserver parse these as PHP files. In Apache you need to add a
line like:
AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php
If that is not an option, you can change it by following these steps:
- change ALL .php file extensions to your new extension.
You can do this manually or by using the following script: /upgrade/extchange.php
(see instructions inside the file!)
- edit main_location.inc and change
define('CFG_PHPEXT',
'php'); to your new extension
