I would like to track page load views on a particular page.
I have created a datatype called “Visitor” which has a field called visitor-count, of type number. Here each time the page is loaded, I increment it by one. So now I have a count say of 20 as in this appdata tab.
Here is what the data shows.
On that page or possibly on some other page,
I added a group of type Visitor
Inside it I add a text field to show this Visitor-count number.
But nothing appears, no matter on what page I put it.
Must be simple, what am I doing wrong?
Hi there, @accts… I know you said the group has a type of content of Visitor, but does the group have a data source? If it doesn’t, that’s your issue. If it does, what is the data source?
Fair question for sure in the brave new world, @Eugene_West, and the answer on this one is almost certainly no (i.e., it doesn’t make sense), given that Bubble themselves mentioned in the webinar that one way to optimize is to simply not do things that Bubble isn’t great at doing (such as tracking page views instead of using Google Analytics to do that).
The group has the same data type Visitor, but I had put visitor:last item. When I changed it to :first item, it is working.
Thanks.
As to not looking at this parameter, what is wrong with that? It does give an indication of activity, if you are sitting in the dark and absolutely no one is visiting.
