Description
This field extends the existing Number field by incrementing the field value by one every time the field is returned in a Data Source XML. This is useful for storing counts of views of pages or articles on your site, to allow for ‘sort by popularity’ functionality or basic page view statistics.
A new entry will provide a default value of zero. The value will increment every time the field is output by a Data Source. If you do not wish a Data Source to touch the value, simply do not output the field. The value can be amended at any time.
Note: this field requires the Number field to be present in your /extensions/ folder, but not necessarily installed (it simply extends the Number field class).
