[Plugin: Mechanic Visitor Counter] counts stopped working

  • I installed the plugin earlier today and everything appeared to be working just fine. After several hours of usage and apparently accurate totals, this is what I now see:

    Visit Today : 0
    Total Visit : 94
    Hits Today :
    Total Hits : 478
    Who’s Online : 0

    The totals for today are obviously incorrect and the Who’s Online total should at least reflect my presence on the site. The counter graphic matches the Total Visits correctly but something has ceased working. It is a shame because this seemed like a simple and attractive solution.

    This must be related to the fact that the plugin is somehow reading the server time from a server in a different timezone and has reset the day totals based on this mismatch. I checked my server time from the command line and this reset should not have been triggered. It is strange that the Hits Today appeared as an empty value (not zero) and the Who’s Online was not correct at the time I initially reported this problem. This is how the totals now appear (with server time one day ahead of actual time):

    Visit Today : 12
    Total Visit : 106
    Hits Today : 31
    Total Hits : 509
    Who’s Online : 2

    Server Time : 12-08-19

    To solve this: set the primary key of the table on both ip and tanggal fields instead of only the ip field, so the date is taken in consideration when adding rows to the table.
