    Unhappy How to Display Popular Post

    I have been trying to display popular post on my blog for quite awhile now and never got it to work.

    I downloaded 2-3 plugin that said to display top post. Even the popularity contest plugin.

    I then try to put this code in the widget to get it to show but nothing happen! : <?php akpc_the_popularity(); ?>

    If you have a top post section thats working, can you PLEASE help me

    Maybe I am not understanding how to use the code to display it...I just paste the code they gave me in the text widget because that is the only one I have, but nothing ever show up

    You might want to post this in the PHP section, or get it moved, and you should specify which blog software you are using.

    hi there,please tell from where have you copied that php script for your blog as your code shows u were using alex king's widget of popularity conest..i think you have not put the code properly..try downloading this code from alex site from here and unzip the php files and then upload them onto your wp-content/plugins directory (not in a sub-folder)..then go to the Plugins page in your WordPress Administration area and click 'Activate' for Popularity data for you..
    here is the link from which you can download it..

    http://alexking.org/projects/wordpre...ty-contest.zip

    after unzipping read the "readme" files instructions and i wish it will solve your problem..good luck

    I just hooked into W3Counter's API to get a list of the most popular pages of the blog in XML, then redisplay them as a list of links in my sidebar...
