Definition of "views"
Out of curiosity, are "views" incremented by artificial views by spiders/bots or only by people; also whether all people or only registered people?
Thanks.
Thanks.
Re: Definition of "views"
Sorry, I don't usually look in this bit of the site! I can only answer the bit I know: every time you go onto a page it registers a view, so if you look at your own post, say 4 times, it will register as 4 views. With bots, it would depend whether they crawl all the threads, however it may be that the software excludes them, I don't know. I'll do a search.
Update: this is an old thread, so it may have been dealt with since, but in 2008 bots did affect the views in PHPbb. Will have another look later.
