Easyblog extended statistics

Having a look on your easyblog location /dashboard you will see some stats about your blog, for those that are not satisfied with what they see i will show u a free way to have see more stats.

I will use the News Show Pro GK5 module to achieve my goal. The NSP5 module is free and i'm using it for many years with my easyblog.

In my example i will create a report of the weekly stats of my blog but using the same way you will be able to create monthly stats etc.

Before we start working with NSP5 we will create a new menu item named Statistics Alias = stats
Menu Item Type= Featured Articles
Status=Published
Access=Registered (or Special or Super User depends on your ACL settings, but just dont set it public or guest unless u want your visitors to see your stats)


After installing NSP5 we create a new module and we customize it:
Module title = Weekly stats (or whatever), show title = Yes
Module Assignment=Only on the pages selected
and tick only the Statistics menu item that we created before

Module tab>Module access= registered (same as Statistics Menu)

Basic Settings tab>Module mode=Standard mode

Data source tab>Source of articles=All EB articles
News order=By hits amount
News sort order= Descending
Show article created in last X days=7 (here we place 31 instead of 7 if we want monthly stats)

Article layout tab> see the pictures




Thumbnails tab> Image auto-scale=ON
Thumbnail dimensions=160x120

Thats all folks, now you just login in your website front end and you click the Satistics menu, or type manualy http://www.yoursite/stats and enjoy!
