Satisfied

Good plugin, works very well

Great Plugin
by findikhikayeleri·1 year ago

Great plugin. It has all the features I wanted.

Icons on left corner
by thomytk·1 year ago

I put the counter to the footer section but on top left corner it occurs also just the statistic icon and a running icon below the statistic icon. I run the website by a purchased theme. I ask for a solution to remove the icons on the top left corner in the wordpress forum but still no answers to my question. Any suggestions?

Counts every reload?

It counts every reload, and you can’t turn of the graphic icon….
