Açıklama
Mostify is a fast, no-bloat popular-posts plugin that turns your WordPress views and comments into ranked lists you can drop anywhere via shortcode, widget, or Gutenberg block.
It uses a pre-aggregated bucket schema (one row per post per time bucket) so ranking queries stay snappy even on sites with millions of pageviews — no on-the-fly aggregation, no JOIN fan-out, no slow wp_postmeta scans.
Highlights
- Page-views counter — AJAX tracking with bot detection, per-visitor cookie deduplication, and a
mostify_should_track_viewfilter for custom rules. - Comments counter — counts approved comments (auto-approved + admin-approved transitions).
- Time-period rankings —
today,yesterday,past_24_hours,this_week,last_week,past_7_days,this_month,last_month,past_30_days,this_year,last_year,past_12_months,all_time. - Custom periods — build any window via
custom_hours_N,custom_days_N,custom_months_N. - 4 list styles — simple, bars, cards, medal (top-3 medal emoji).
- Multi-tab layouts — show several time periods side by side in one block, each tab with its own period and sort order. Choose from 4 tab styles: horizontal tabs, vertical tabs, horizontal accordion, vertical accordion. Leave tabs empty to render a single period exactly as before.
- 10 color presets — ocean, sunset, forest, berry, fire, midnight, coral, arctic, earth, neon — plus theme inheritance and custom CSS.
- Views migration — one-click import of lifetime view counts from popular counter plugins so you can switch to Mostify without resetting your rankings to zero. Supports WordPress Popular Posts, Post Views Counter, WP-PostViews, WP Statistics, Top 10 — Popular Posts, and Jetpack Stats. Runs as a batched background job with live progress.
- Display surfaces — shortcode
[mostify], classic widget, server-rendered Gutenberg block, post-editor meta box, auto-insert into the_content. - Admin chart — per-post hourly / daily / monthly histogram with period switcher.
- Performance — 3-tier cache (request memo + object cache + transient), optional batch-write buffer for high-traffic sites.
- Capabilities — role-based access via the
mostify_editandmostify_viewcapabilities. - Privacy — no third-party tracking. View tracking happens entirely on your own server.
Privacy
Mostify stores anonymous, per-post view counts on your own database. No personal data, no IP addresses, and no third-party services are involved. The view-tracking AJAX endpoint sets a single first-party cookie (mostify_v_<post_id>, default 3-hour TTL) used solely for deduplication; cookie name and TTL are filterable. The plugin makes no outbound HTTP calls.

-
Drop the shortcode anywhere:
[mostify counter=”views” limit=”10″ period=”this_week”]
…or build a multi-tab ranking that switches between several periods:
[mostify counter=”views” limit=”5″ tabs=”Today:today:DESC,This Week:this_week:DESC,All Time:all_time:DESC” tab_style=”tabs-horizontal”]
…or use Appearance Widgets to drop the Mostify — Popular Posts widget into a sidebar, or insert the Mostify Ranking block in the Gutenberg editor.
SSS
-
Does the plugin call any external service?
-
No. View tracking, ranking queries, and chart rendering all happen on your own server. The plugin makes no outbound HTTP calls.
-
How are page views counted?
-
A small JavaScript snippet sends a one-shot AJAX request after the page loads. The server checks a per-visitor cookie (3-hour window by default, filterable) and a User-Agent allowlist before incrementing the counter. Admins can be excluded via Settings Mostify Exclude admins from tracking.
-
Is bot traffic excluded?
-
Yes — there’s a built-in User-Agent allowlist covering the long tail of search-engine crawlers, AI scrapers, social link-preview fetchers, and CLI/programmatic clients. You can extend it with the
mostify_bot_patternsfilter. -
I already use another view-counter plugin. Can I keep my existing counts?
-
Yes. When Mostify detects a supported counter plugin — WordPress Popular Posts, Post Views Counter, WP-PostViews, WP Statistics, Top 10 — Popular Posts, or Jetpack Stats — a migration banner appears at the top of Settings Mostify Counter. Click Import to copy each post’s lifetime view total into Mostify. The import runs in the background in batches with a live progress bar, so you can leave the page and come back. When it finishes, Mostify reminds you to deactivate the old plugin to avoid double-counting. You can also register your own source via the
mostify_views_migration_adaptersfilter. -
Can I show more than one time period at once?
-
Yes — that’s what multi-tab layouts are for. Add tabs in the widget form, the block’s Tabs panel, or the shortcode’s
tabsattribute (Name:period:Sortpairs separated by commas). Each tab gets its own period and sort order. Pick atab_styleoftabs-horizontal,tabs-vertical,accordion-horizontal, oraccordion-vertical. Leave tabs empty and Mostify renders a single period exactly as before. -
Can I customize the rendered HTML?
-
Yes. The renderer exposes
mostify_render_html,mostify_list_html, andmostify_list_item_htmlfilters so themes can swap markup, inject columns, or override empty-state output. -
Does it work with caching plugins?
-
The view-tracking AJAX call happens after the page is delivered, so static-cached HTML still triggers a fresh tracking call per visitor. Ranking queries use a 5-minute transient + object-cache layer that any cache plugin can extend.
-
How do I report a bug?
-
Use the Support tab on the Mostify plugin directory page.

mostify_pro_url. - New: One-time welcome notice after a fresh install, linking to the Pro comparison tab. Dismissible and shown only once — it never appears on updates or reactivation.
