hitcounters2-resetcounter

The HitCounters2 extension keeps a count of the number of "hits" (visits) to an article in your wiki. It uses the REST API instead of hooks, unlike Extension:HitCounters, which allows it to work even behind a HTTP caching proxy.

Installation

edit
  • Download an archive of the main branch or clone via Git and place the file(s) in a directory called HitCounters2 in your extensions/ folder.
  • Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:
    wfLoadExtension( 'HitCounters2' );
    
  • Run the update script which will automatically create the necessary database tables that this extension needs.
  •   Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.
