Reset "requests" at footer

[Jacson]

Anyone know how to reset the number of requests that shows at the bottom of the page right side. It shows the "requests since [date]". there must be a reset somewhere or can you just have it NOT display?

Through phpMyAdmin empty the table `counter`

imho you are better off not having it displayed to anyone, do you really want your customers knowing how many have been there, or your competitors keeping track of that?

I agree. I don't know how many people look at those counters anyway. As a web master, you'll want to look at your web stats using the host control panel and/or install Visitors on your osC admin panel.

hi arames,

 

find the following code in your includes/footer.php file

 

<td align="right" class="footer">  <?php echo $counter_now . ' ' . FOOTER_TEXT_REQUESTS_SINCE . ' ' . $counter_startdate_formatted; ?>  </td>

 

and edit out the counter startdate so that the code now looks like this:

 

<td align="right" class="footer">  <?php echo $counter_now . ' ' . FOOTER_TEXT_REQUESTS_SINCE; ?>  </td>

 

 

now go to your includes/languages/english.php file and find the following code:

 

// footer text in includes/footer.php

define('FOOTER_TEXT_REQUESTS_SINCE', 'requests since');

 

and change it to:

 

// footer text in includes/footer.php

define('FOOTER_TEXT_REQUESTS_SINCE', 'requests since November 2004');

 

 

your counter will now show as you want it to.

Thank you so much .. just though there is a faster way then this (since I have 5 languages, & didn't want to do all this work) ;)

well once you have edited the includes/footer.php that will effect the layout no matter which language you are viewing in..

 

but as far as i know you will need to edit each language file... i doubt it would automatically change the rest of the language files when you edit a line in one of the others.

 

make the changes in your default files and then see if it affects the othes but i honestly doubt it will.

Take John's advice and rip it out.

Just my 1 1/2 cents,
