Nevermind, I figure it out! ??

Since you were so kind to reply here, I want to ask you something.

I have a news website, so I’ve added a counter for the posts.

Add this codes from the following block in your themes function.php file. It will configure your theme to enhance this functionality:

function getPostViews($postID){
$count_key = 'post_views_count';
$count = get_post_meta($postID, $count_key, true);
if($count==''){
delete_post_meta($postID, $count_key);
add_post_meta($postID, $count_key, '0');
return "0 View";
}
return $count.' Views';
}
function setPostViews($postID) {
$count_key = 'post_views_count';
$count = get_post_meta($postID, $count_key, true);
if($count==''){
$count = 0;
delete_post_meta($postID, $count_key);
add_post_meta($postID, $count_key, '0');
}else{
$count++;
update_post_meta($postID, $count_key, $count);
}
}
// Remove issues with prefetching adding extra views
remove_action( 'wp_head', 'adjacent_posts_rel_link_wp_head', 10, 0);


Now add the following line of code in your single.php file within the loop. It will track the views and set the views of each post.

setPostViews(get_the_ID());

And then I’ve edited the skin-base.php in a way to show the counter just for logged it users with this code:

<span class="sobellosofigo">- <?php echo getPostViews(get_the_ID());?></span>

.logged-in .sobellosofigo {
display: inline;
}
</style>

Everything was working perfectly. THEN I found the Theme Builder Single function, and I needed it, so I’ve started using it and now the counter is not working anymore. I suppose because I have no idea now where to add the single.php part of the code for the loop, or well, I’ve tried a few solution, but instead of showing the post counter, it’s showing me for every post the counter for the entire website, if I refreh the homwpage, it will increase by 1 on every posts.

Any idea? Can you help me somehow? Where is the loop in elementor? The one like the “single.php” of the theme!

Thank you and regards,
Stefano.
