Luo is on vacation. This is Minesh here and I'll try to help you further.

Well - I check the internal ticket and there is no news to share with you as well as Luo said there is no ETA on this.

Hello,

Please let me know if you need more assistance for using filter hook wpv_filter_wpv_get_object_unique_hash to remove the URL parameter "wpv_view_count", it works fine in my localhost with a wordpress archive page without AJAX pagination or search form.

You can provide a test site with same problem, and fill below private message box with login details and FTP access, also point out the problem page URL and view wordpress archive URL, and where I can edit your PHP codes, I need a live website to test and debug.

Thanks

Dear Matt,

I have tried the credentials you provided above:
1) user name "luoyang", it is not an admin account
2) in the URL hidden link, I see below message only:
Development Site
Please ignore.

So I can not debug the codes in your website, please check it, make sure it is a valid admin account. thanks

Hi

Apologies I forgot to set the user as an admin, I have now done this.

You will be able to see the URL now when you login as well, you were only seeing this message because the account was set to subscriber status.

Cheers.

Thanks for the details, I have done below modification in your website:
Dashboard-> Snippets, add a new Snippets:
hidden link

Add the same codes as I mentioned in post:

Test it in front-end:
hidden link

It works fine, please check it. thanks

Hey Luo

That works perfectly! 🙂

Is there a way to include multiple IDs in this same query? So I can enable this on more than one archive template?

Or should I add the exact same code for each one? Seems like it would be more streamlined though to put them all in one query?

Cheers.

[Luo Yang]

Yes, you can use PHP function in_array() to include multiple IDs, for example, modify this line from:

if($view_settings['view_id'] == 22502){

To:

if(in_array($view_settings['view_id'], array( 22502, 123, 456 )){

Hi Luo

This code is a little over my head (in terms of understanding it) but thanks for the info! I just tried to use it anyway and it came back with an error.

I think I fixed it though. I think it just needed another ) on the end to close off the array.

e.g.

if(in_array($view_settings['view_id'], array( 22502, 123, 456 ))){

That seems to work fine, just posting in case anyone else looks at this thread and wants to use the code. ?

Cheers.
Matt
