Display view count on a post

https://testcounter.ironblockhd.repl.co/c/2897ec429b2d First, you need to generate your image codes on https://testcounter.ironblockhd.repl.co.
You can embed the first image where you want to show the count. The second image is invisible, rendering it will increment the total count.

This post has https://testcounter.ironblockhd.repl.co/v/2897ec429b2d views (reset due to botters lol)

I totally didn't just bot it. LOL!


while true; do
  curl "https://testcounter.ironblockhd.repl.co/c/2897ec429b2d"
  curl "https://testcounter.ironblockhd.repl.co/v/2897ec429b2d"
done

Hehe you only have to bot the /c/ one

AmazingMech2418

@ironblockhd Yeah. I know, but I still botted it...

AmazingMech2418

@ironblockhd Congratulations on 5092 views by the way! LOL!

Nice haha

@AmazingMech2418 SO MECH Where ARE YOU

AmazingMech2418

@HahaYes In the repl. LOL! https://repl.it/@AmazingSquidYes/AdaptX#main.cpp

What dude this is insane! How'd you make it?

@DynamicSquid Thanks! i used replits new database and made a simple http server that sends server-generated svg images

@ironblockhd oh I see, that's cool! for an update, could you make it so that only one user can view it one time?

A lot of people have third party cookies deactivated and google chrome plans to disable it by default, so it wouldn't really be worth it

haha someone botted the views

I wonder how many people read the comments:

how do you use it

Embed both codes it gives you, for replit posts etc select markdown and for websites select html

so i need to copy and paste the code @ironblockhd

Yep, the code it provies you

ok thx @ironblockhd

@Leroy01010 np, sorry for understanding the question wrong at first

it's ok @ironblockhd

So how does this work?

@JosephSanthosh i used replitDB to storage the counts and have a simple server set up that sends dynamically generated svg images. When you embed the image that it gives you it will display the count

@ironblockhd Oh Ok. So I just embed the image in the code?

@ironblockhd Did you write all the code in here? How would I have to add this in my code, do I copy each file seperately?

Yes, both seperatly

@ironblockhd How?

I wonder can i use markdown...

for some reason it doesnt work on my post, https://repl.it/talk/share/A-blog/49129

You need to add a image for both links, you also need to add [loading..](https://testcounter.ironblockhd.repl.co/c/65ca4caa5a46)

@ironblockhd I might need you to help me a bit, the counter works, but can you add repl sign-in to my program?

Here's a tutorial for python: https://repl.it/talk/learn/Authenticating-users-with-Replit-Auth/23460

https://testcounter.ironblockhd.repl.co/c/bdf19bd38de
its broken it doesnt show views

@Code1Tech thats the link that adds to the count when you render it, here's the link your searching: https://testcounter.ironblockhd.repl.co/v/bdf19bd38de

cool!

This is awesome! I can add it to my projects!

https://testcounter.ironblockhd.repl.co/c/1b3769256312
https://testcounter.ironblockhd.repl.co/v/1b3769256312
