A custom tracker
Post Pay Counter supports virtually any visits tracker, as long as they expose a function to retrieve all time visits for a post. You can specify a callback in Visits payment > Counting method > A custom visit counter (callback)
. The callback should take a WP_Post
object as only argument and return the total visits for that post as an integer.
