‘comment views’ doesn’t count!

It’s the oddest thing!

I recently upgraded to pMachine 2.4

Now my ‘%%comment_hits%%‘ doesn’t count properly.

It only counts if ‘%%comments_total%%‘ is showing at least one comment.

In other words, I have to add a comment in order for the comments link to count views of the comment page. If I later delete that comment, then the feature doesn’t count subsequent views of the comments page.

My site is http://noweurope.com

Any suggestions?

Odd, the comment hit counter does not care if there are any comments, only that the post exists.  I checked this on my development site and it updates the views just fine with or without comments for an entry.

Paul - I can’t figure this out either.

I just recently upgraded the whole thing to pMachine 2.4.

I’ve sent you my login and ftp info.

Please have a closer look and see what you can discover.

I’ve installed a fresh install of 2.4 some days ago and I got the same problem. I;m also running a weblog on pmachine 2.4 for a year now. Also got the problem over there…

The views of a post/blog aren’t counted untill thre is 1 comment.

Is there already a solution for it?

You do realize the pMachine is a discontinued product?

But I can’t replicate the problem you’re having in my test install of 2.4.
