Make view count for pop up post

1 Views

I’m using SimpleModal to allow users to click on a post excerpt on my homepage and popup a box showing the full post. However it doesn’t count for an actual view of the post when this happens. Is there a way to make wordpress recognize it as a view? I’m using wp-postviews to track view counts.

  1. Apparently the plugin does the logging inside the wp_head hook:

    add_action('wp_head', 'process_postviews');

    so make sure you call wp_head() in your pop-up box, or if you can’t do that (pop-up is not a html document), then just call the function directly, like:

    if(function_exists('process_postviews'))
  process_postviews();

// the_content();  ?
