\"smiirl-fliike\"<\/a><\/p>\n

A download counter not only provides you useful metrics but also gives your visitors a hint about the most popular files.<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

If you offer your visitors files to download you may want to count how many times each file is download. I use CCounter, a PHP Click Counter<\/a> to count the number of times my books have been read<\/a>. It’s so simple but yet it does everything you need. It’s currently on version 2.0 and its user interface looks a lot better than the original – and the installation is easier too. This “plugin” transforms your files’ URL into a special URL. When a visitor opens that special URL, CCounter counts a view and then redirects the file’s real location. Afterwards, using PHP, you can display the number of types that file was downloaded or viewed.<\/p>\n

Install<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. Download CCounter 2.0 from the official website at phpjunkyard.com<\/a>. Unzip the file to a folder named, for example, downloadmanager<\/code>.<\/li>\n
  2. Upload the folder to your website via FTP or similar. I used Filezilla and uploaded the folder to \/assets\/downloadmanager<\/code>.<\/li>\n
  3. Use your browser to open the folder you just uploaded. In the example, go to www.your-domain.com\/assets\/downloadmanager<\/code>.<\/li>\n
  4. Follow the installation steps that appear. Don’t forget to delete the folder named install<\/code>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Configure<\/h3>\n

    To set up a counter for a specific file:<\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Upload your file to your website and copy the url, for example: www.your-domain.com\/files\/awesome-file.zip<\/code><\/li>\n
    2. Go to CCounter’s admin console by visiting its main folder on the browser. Following the example, open the URL www.your-domain.com\/assets\/downloadmanager<\/code> and login.<\/li>\n
    3. Open the New link<\/em> page and submit your chosen link as a new link. Paste the URL of your file.<\/li>\n
    4. After the URL is submitted, a special tracking URL is generated by CCount, for example www.your-domain.com\/ccount\/click.php?id=123<\/code>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Use it<\/h3>\n

      Every time you want to provide a link to your file (<a href=\"...\"><\/code>) use the URL generated by CCount (e.g. www.your-domain.com\/ccount\/click.php?id=123<\/code>). When a visitor clicks that URL, CCount will count the click and redirect the visitor to where the real file is (e.g. http:\/\/mydomain.com\/files\/myFile.zip<\/code>).<\/p>\n

      Display it<\/h3>\n

      To show the number of clicks or downloads of a file you need to:<\/p>\n

        \n
      1. Place the following code inside the <head><\/code> tag of the webpage where you want to display count statistics: <script src=\"http:\/\/www.diogonunes.com\/assets\/downloadmanager\/display.php\"><\/script><\/code><\/li>\n
      2. Paste the next snippet exactly where you want the count to appear: <script>ccount_display('LINK_ID')<\/script><\/code>, e.g. <script>ccount_display('123')<\/script><\/code><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        Simple, but effective!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
