Using with get_posts()

Hi,

Your plugin seems to work great for normal pages/posts.

I am using a custom post type for advertisements – they are non public posts, but I retrieve them using get_posts() to display around my site.

Viewing the post in this way doesn’t increment the view count, so I was looking for a way to manually increment the view count based on the post id. I can see you have some filters available that may do this, but I can’t figure it out.

My code is as follows:

$args = array(
	'post_type' => 'advert',
	'posts_per_page' => 2,
	'orderby' => 'rand',
	'post_status' => 'publish'
);
$posts = get_posts( $args );

foreach ($posts as $post) :  setup_postdata($post);

	// I'm displaying my advert here

	// how do I manually increase the view count here?

endforeach;
wp_reset_query();

Do you have a quick pointer how I can write back to increment the counter?

Thanks in advance
