## Descripción

Advanced Reading Progress & View Counter helps improve user engagement by showing
visitors:

✔ How much content they have read
 ✔ Which posts are most popular ✔ A cleaner and
more interactive reading experience

The plugin combines a customizable reading progress indicator with a lightweight
post view counter that includes anti-refresh protection.

Perfect for:

 * Blogs
 * News websites
 * Tutorial sites
 * Documentation websites
 * Magazine-style WordPress websites

#### Why Use This Plugin?

Many readers leave long articles before finishing them.

A reading progress bar encourages visitors to continue scrolling and improves content
interaction. At the same time, the built-in view counter helps display content popularity
and social proof.

This plugin is lightweight, easy to configure, and works without external tracking
services.

#### Reading Progress Features

 * Top reading progress bar
 * Circular/radial progress indicator
 * Custom colors and thickness
 * Multiple display positions
 * Mobile-friendly design
 * Select supported post types
 * Lightweight frontend assets

#### Post View Counter Features

 * Smart anti-refresh protection
 * Configurable lock window
 * Custom prefix & suffix
 * Multiple display positions
 * Manual shortcode placement
 * Support for specific post IDs
 * Hide zero-view counts

#### Easy Customization

 * Beginner-friendly settings
 * Clean WordPress admin UI
 * No coding required
 * Lightweight and performance-focused

### Shortcodes

Display the counter anywhere manually:

    ```
    [arpvc_view_counter]
    ```

Alias shortcode:

    ```
    [arpvc_read_count]
    ```

Show views for a specific post:

    ```
    [arpvc_view_counter post_id="123"]
    ```

Add custom text:

    ```
    [arpvc_view_counter prefix="Views:" suffix="Total"]
    ```

Hide counter when views are zero:

    ```
    [arpvc_view_counter show_zero="0"]<h3>Development</h3>
    ```

Production assets included in the plugin are generated using npm and gulp.

## Preguntas frecuentes

### How does the anti-refresh protection work?

The plugin stores a temporary cooldown period per visitor and post.

Example:

If the lock window is set to `24 hours`, refreshing the same post multiple times
within that period will not increase the view count.

### Can I disable the lock window?

Yes.

Simply set the lock window value to `0`.

### Can I manually place the counter?

Yes.

Set the counter position to `Shortcode Only` and place:

    ```
    [arpvc_view_counter]
    ```

anywhere inside posts, pages, widgets, Elementor, Gutenberg blocks, or page builders.

### Does the plugin require external services?

No.

Everything works directly inside WordPress without third-party APIs or tracking 
systems.

### Is the plugin lightweight?

Yes.

The plugin is optimized for performance and loads only the required frontend assets.
