    I currently use this code to get the WP-Post views plugin’s views, but it does not support a date. So i want to transfer over to this plugin and include a date of last week.

    <?php
$cat_id='-8';//the category ID
$limit = get_option('posts_per_page');

query_posts(array('category__and'=>array(276),
'showposts'=>8,'more' => $more = 0,
'meta_key' => 'views',
'orderby' => 'meta_value_num',
'order' => 'DESC',
));
?>

    How, and where and what do i have to put in the above code for it to work?

    Thanks!

    Hi oomskaap,

    WordPress Popular Posts has its own template tag called wpp_get_mostpopular() that you can use to get the most viewed posts from last 7 days (please note I said days, and not week).

    Here’s an example:

    <?php
if (function_exists( 'wpp_get_mostpopular' )) {
  wpp_get_mostpopular('range=weekly&cat=276&order_by=views&limit=8');
}
?>

    That code would get the most viewed posts belonging to the category 276 (as seen at your code) from the past 7 days.
