內容簡介
總結：Init View Count 是一個快速乾淨的外掛，用來追蹤文章瀏覽次數，無需冗贅。它利用 REST API 和 JS 來計算實際瀏覽次數，並且避免重複計算，將計數存儲在像 _init_view_count、_init_view_day_count 等元數鍵中。這個外掛是 Init Plugin Suite 的一部分，這是一個專為 WordPress 開發者設計的極簡、快速的工具集。
問題：
1. Init View Count 的外掛是用什麼技術來計算實際瀏覽次數的？
2. 內容提到 Init View Count 的外掛支持什麼類型的短代碼？
3. 使用 [init_view_list] 短代碼時，可以透過哪個屬性來設定顯示的文章數量？
4. 外掛提到支持模板覆蓋，可以使用什麼來覆蓋預設模板？
5. Init View Count 外掛與哪些框架完全兼容？
原文外掛簡介
Init View Count is a fast, clean plugin to track post views without clutter. It:
Uses REST API and JS to count real views
Prevents duplicate counts with session/local storage
Stores counts in meta keys like _init_view_count, _init_view_day_count, etc.
Provides [init_view_count] and [init_view_list] shortcodes
Includes [init_view_ranking] shortcode with tabbed ranking by time range
Supports template overrides (like WooCommerce)
Lightweight. No tracking, no admin bloat.
Includes REST API to query most viewed posts
Supports pagination in [init_view_list] via the page attribute
Batch view tracking support to reduce REST requests on busy sites
Optional strict IP-based filtering to block fake view requests posted directly to the REST endpoint
Includes a Dashboard widget to monitor top viewed posts directly in wp-admin
Learns site-wide traffic shape (hourly & weekday) via AI-powered smoothing
Shapes cached and updated efficiently with minimal overhead
Safe reset action to rebuild patterns automatically
Fully integrated with Trending Engine v3 for uplift-based scoring
This plugin is part of the Init Plugin Suite — a collection of minimalist, fast, and developer-focused tools for WordPress.

Includes optional Dashboard widget for quick admin overview of top viewed posts
AI-powered Traffic Shape Learner – understands your site’s hourly & weekly rhythm
Auto-integrated with Trending Engine v3 for seasonality-aware uplift detection
Smart fallbacks (day → week → month → total) ensure rankings never run empty
Ultra-light: only 1 write per increment + 1 rollup per day, cache-first design
Shortcodes
[init_view_count]
Shows current view count for a post. Only works inside a post loop.
Attributes:
– field: total (default), day, week, month – which counter to display
– format: formatted (default), raw, or short – controls number formatting
– time: true to show time diff from post date (e.g. “3 days ago”)
– icon: true to display a small SVG icon before the count
– schema: true to output schema.org microdata (InteractionCounter)
– class: add a custom CSS class to the outer wrapper
[init_view_list]
Show list of most viewed posts.
Attributes:
– number: Number of posts to show (default: 5)
– page: Show a specific page of results (default: 1)
– post_type: Type of post (default: post)
– template: sidebar (default), full, grid, details (can be overridden)
– title: Title above list. Set to empty (title="") to hide
– class: Custom class added to wrapper
– orderby: Sort field (default: meta_value_num)
– order: ASC or DESC (default: DESC)
– range: total, day, week, month, trending
– category: Filter by category slug
– tag: Filter by tag slug
– empty: Message to show if no posts found
[init_view_ranking]
Show tabbed ranking of most viewed posts. Uses REST API and JavaScript for dynamic loading. Optimized for SPA/headless usage.
Attributes:
– tabs: Comma-separated list of ranges. Available: total, day, week, month (default: all)
– number: Number of posts per tab (default: 5)
– class: Custom class for outer wrapper
This shortcode automatically enqueues required JS and uses skeleton loaders while fetching data.
REST API
This plugin exposes two REST endpoints to interact with view counts: one for recording views and another for retrieving top posts.
POST /wp-json/initvico/v1/count
Record one or more views. Accepts a single post ID or an array of post IDs.
Parameters:
– post_id — (int|array) Required. One or more post IDs to increment view count for.
This endpoint checks if the post is published, belongs to a supported post type, and applies delay/scroll config (via JavaScript). It updates total and optionally day/week/month view counters.
Note: The number of post IDs processed per request is limited based on the batch setting in plugin options.
GET /wp-json/initvico/v1/top
Retrieve the most viewed posts, ranked by view count.
Parameters:
– range — (string) total, day, week, month. Defaults to total.
– post_type — (string) Post type to query. Defaults to post.
– number — (int) Number of posts to return. Default: 5.
– page — (int) Pagination offset. Default: 1.
– fields — (string) minimal (id, title, link) or full (includes excerpt, thumbnail, type, date, etc.)
– tax — (string) Optional. Taxonomy slug (e.g. category).
– terms — (string) Comma-separated term slugs or IDs.
– no_cache — (bool) If 1, disables transient caching.
This endpoint supports filtering and caching, and can be extended to support custom output formats.
