Top 5 most viewed.

[KevHopwood]

Hi all.

 

I have a mobile cms website situated <a href="http://www.xclo.mobi/xclo2">here</a> all of my apps and offers are located in a database.

 

Is there a way for me to add a popular / most visited section to my site that reads how many times each offer has been viewed and for it to display a lost of the top 5. Can some one help me on how to do this?

 

Thanks.

Here's a tutorial on how to setup the page hit counter.

Then you can do some simple queries to get the top 5 highest views.

count views:

mysql_query("UPDATE apps SET views=views+1 WHERE id='".$id."'");

show 5 most viewed:

mysql_query("SELECT * FROM apps ORDER BY views DESC LIMIT 0, 5");

Don't forget to add column "views". My code is just an example.
