AI-generated summary

DigneZzZ inquired about embedding counters, specifically Yandex.Metrica, into the forum footer. RGJ asked for clarification on the type of counter, and DigneZzZ specified the need for visit and audience metrics. RGJ provided a link to an existing meta topic, but DigneZzZ found it unhelpful for their specific implementation needs. Ultimately, DigneZzZ resolved the issue independently by creating a new component, inserting the Yandex.Metrica code into the HTML body, and applying the component across all themes.

Greetings, everyone!

I have been diligently searching and exploring the entire forum for quite some time. Unfortunately, I have yet to find a plugin or theme component that would enable me to incorporate counters into the forum, specifically in the footer of the page.

Could you kindly assist me?

What kind of things would you want to count?

I wish to integrate the Yandex.Metrica counter solely for tracking visits and audience metrics.

I have encountered this topic, yet I remain perplexed as to how to accomplish it. The description pertained to a different task altogether.

Very well.
I shall respond to myself.
I managed to create a counter; it turned out to be remarkably simple.

To accomplish this, one must:

  1. Develop a new component.
  2. Insert the requisite code into the body.
