Unique Page Views - Crimin4L - 07-26-2020 Wassup guys, here is some php code I made for my website to count the amount of unique page views.I tried my best to explain each line of code with a comment above. Create a new file "count.php" and add the following code: PHP Code: <?php
/* get the IP address of the user */
$getra = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
/* Encrypt the IP address with sha1 in brackets; also get it ready for the next line with \n */
$printip = "<" . sha1($getra) . ">\n";
/* get the file name where we are printing our encrypted IPs */
$getfile = "ipfile.txt";
/* Open that file with read/write access; If it doesn't exist it will create it. */
$ipfile = fopen($getfile, "a+") or die("Unable to open file!");
/* count the amount of lines in the ipfile.txt(AKA: counting how many IP's are on the list) */
$countipfile = count(file($getfile));
/* read the file we opened */
$ipget = fread($ipfile, filesize($getfile));
/* if it contains the ip address already, do nothing.
If it doesn't have the IP address on file, write it & +1. */
if(strpos($ipget, $printip) !== false){
}else{
fwrite($ipfile, $printip);
/* since the new visitor wont see his view on the counter until he refreshes his browser; */
$countipfile++; /* We account for his IP that wasn't initially counted in the list by adding 1 (because it wasn't there) */
/* Once he refreshes, his IP is already on the list and counted. */
}
/* write the amount of unique visits. */
$theCount = "Unique Website Views: ". $countipfile . "";
?>Now, whatever page you want to record the amount of visitors on, add the following code (preferably to the head): (So if someone views a page with this code in it, their IP will be logged) PHP Code: <?php include count.php; ?>Now to print your unique page counter, use the following code (make sure the line of code above is included somewhere in the page): PHP Code: <?php echo $theCount; ?>I hope you guys enjoy this, if you have any questions comment below and I will try to help you
RE: Unique Page Views - mothered - 07-26-2020 A simple, yet very effective piece of code. Excellent use of variables and conditional statements. A job well done. RE: Unique Page Views - Mr.Kurd - 07-26-2020 I was trying to do this as well, but looks like no more need to code. Thank you, I will modify and integrate into my website.
