    Hello ,
    Since I put the ” Fontfolio ” theme on my blog , there are more visits on the homepage than it’s possible , and I think there is something wrong on the visit counter or on the statistics . For example , yesterday there was 6 visitors , a total of 39 visits , 13 posts visited and 26 visits on the homepage . How is it possible ??
    For the moment I removed the visit counter because the statistics are false . Does anyone know a solution to this problem ???
    Thank you

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

    Our stats are not real time stats. For details see here http://en.support.wordpress.com/stats/ and note the views and viewers take hours to update. Provided you are logged in when visiting, your own views are not recorded on any public blog you registered.

    Our stats are page view stats. Please do not assume that everyone who clicks a follow, like, share, reblog or comment link actually reads the post on your blog because odds are they may not. Also note that those who follow your blog in the Reader or by email don’t have to click into the blog unless they wish to. Subscribers control how frequently they receive your posts (instantly, daily, weekly). And, they can even comment without clicking into the blog either.

    Follow, like, share, reblog or comment clicks are not page views. In fact, follows, likes, shares, comments and reblogs are completely misleading when you are talking about page view stats.

    Your followers and anyone with a WordPress.com/Gravatar account who is logged into WordPress.com can “follow” your blog, “like”, “share” and “reblog” your posts and “comment” in several locations such as the Reader, without ever clicking into your blog and creating a single page view stat.

    Logged in visitors using a mobile can read the full post without creating a page view stat. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/wordpresscom-reader-show-full-text?replies=31#post-1373606

    You can control the length of the entry sent out on your RSS feed here Dashboard > Settings > Reading. Choose the “summary” setting for your RSS feed rather than to “full text”. That will compel followers who are not using mobiles to click into the blog to read the full post which will create a page view stat.

    Thank you Timethief , previously I tried 3 different themes and now , on the ” fontfolio ” theme there is this mistake that I told in my post . I think there is an error on this theme and I reported that to wordpress administration . For the moment , I removed the visit counter because I want not having a lot of visits if they are not real visits …

    Thank you Timethief and have a good afternoon :) Greetings from France …

    I used the ” under the influence ” theme for a year , and I didn’t have this problem ! For example , now I have 4 visitors , 22 views , 2 posts visited and 20 visits on the homepage !
    I think there is something wrong …
