What it does
Many WordPress sites track how often each post is read with a post views plugin, then show that number on the page. When the same content is served as an AMP page, those counters often disappear, because AMP uses its own stripped-down output. This extension closes that gap. It connects your existing post views plugin to your AMP pages, so view counts appear on the AMP versions of posts and pages too, and readers get a consistent picture of which articles are popular.
Setup is plug and play. Once the extension is active, it adds AMP compatibility for post views without extra configuration or custom code. WP-PostViews is supported out of the box, and the team behind it offers to add compatibility for other post views plugins on request. The counters are responsive, so they display properly on desktops, tablets and phones. It suits personal blogs, content-heavy sites and larger publishing setups that already rely on AMP for mobile readers.
Best for
- Blogs that serve AMP pages to mobile readers
- Content sites already using WP-PostViews
- Publishers who display post popularity to visitors
