  Hi people,

  A simple question regarding the built-in widget called “Blog Stats”.
  Does anyone know the time interval for a same visitor to be counted twice(and so on) in the stats?
  I believe it is less than 24 hours, but the exact time would be greatly appreciated.

  Thanks !

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  The blog stats widget will display “page views” not unique visitors. WordPress does not report unique visitors in their stats.

  I think most of the “unique visitor” stats are done by setting a cookie on the visitors computer on the first visit – you can get some plain html counters that will show unique visitors.

  Thanks for your answers ;)
  And I kept writing “visitors” in the widget title.. what a blunder :/
