So till now everything is perfect. New community, changing some text and I’m still learning. Very exciting. Thank you.
Now, I checked the stats and I saw that I have hundreds of users.. but I have only 5…? Mysteries bug?
I even saw that I had 8K pageviews in the last 7 days! Maybe one day I’ll be famous but not yet ![]()
AI-generated summary
The discussion “Too many users and pageviews” revolves around a discrepancy in user and pageview statistics. Yariv_Cohen noticed hundreds of users and 8K pageviews in 7 days, despite only having 5 actual users. Benjamin_D suggested that the pageviews might be inflated due to scrolling through topics generating multiple pageviews. However, Yariv_Cohen remains unconvinced, as the stats do not reflect his community’s reality. Benjamin_D shared his own experience, attributing high pageviews to his own testing and anonymous visitors, and suggested checking the admin dashboard reports for more accurate data.
I think it’s the pageviews (per type of user)
and for me too it can go up fast, even without many users!
About pageview, if i understand correctly, scrolling through a topic generate as many pageviews as posts (the url changes)
Thank you Benjamin for your answer, but still doesnt make any sense for me..
I have maybe 4 topic and 2 active users… The stats don’t reflect the reality for my community.
In the beginning, most of the pageviews were me, fiddling with the numerous options and parameters
but you are right, sometime it seemed a lot. One thing for sure, when nothing at all happens, these numbers tend to zero
, no bug there!
In my case the number of anonymous pageviews seems high, because it’s invite only
, but I think it’s more some kind of low signal/noise ratio than a bug, I probably won’t notice it as the community grows.
ps: you also have a lot of data you can crosscheck here :
