List of most popular articles

Hello:
I would like to build in the sidebar a list of the most popular (most clicked-on) articles. How can I do it? Thanks.

Re: List of most popular articles

There is a plug-in but it does rely on your logs so you have to have them activated.

Re: List of most popular articles

Thx, Stuart.
I installed it and it does list the popular posts, but their hyperlink is wrong.
For example, my post will have the address: ….info/b/tp/POST-NAME, while the plugin will drop a part of the hyperlink (the ‘b/tp’ bit). How can I correct it? Thx,
KB

PS. BTW, just in case anyone will need plugins from this contributor, pls note that the ‘Download file’ link is broken, but using the pointer from Fabian De Rango’s comment after the plugin article, one can access the plugin AND the required library using their NAME.txt format.

Mmmm. I’m afraid my PHP isn’t good enough to help you with that. Maybe someone else will have a look. Or maybe you could contact the developer??

I solved it by editing the required library— using good ole’ trial-an-error method. Thanks anyways.
