Article Views Definition

Many of the reports include view counts for content. Unlike other web analytics solutions, Community does not use Javascript to log when a view occurs. Instead, it logs views only when specific widgets are actually loaded onto a page.

The out-of-the-box view count widgets are:

  • Blog - Post List in Detail view only (where blog posts are shown in their entirety in the list)
  • Blog - Post Content
  • Event Calendar - Event
  • Forum - Thread
  • Ideas - Idea
  • Media Gallery - File
  • Wiki - Page
  • Knowledge Management - Document
Community captures both anonymous and logged in views, which you can filter to each (or any custom combination of roles) separately via role scoping, if desired.
