Introduction

The statistics module keeps track of numerous statistics for your site but be warned, statistical collection does cause a little overhead, thus everything comes disabled by default.

The module counts how many times, and from where -- using HTTP referrer -- each of your posts is viewed. Once we have that count the module can do the following with it:

Notes on using the statistics:

As with any new module, the statistics module needs to be enabled before you can use it. Also refer to the permissions section, as this module supports four separate permissions.

Configuring the statistics module

There are some configuration options added to the main administer » settings » statistics section:

Popular content block

This module creates a block that can display the day's top viewed content, the all time top viewed content, and the last content viewed. Each of these links can be enabled or disabled individually, and the number of posts displayed for each can be configured with a drop down menu. If you disable all sections of this block, it will not appear.

Don't forget to enable the block.
