[Support request] Add post view counter

[Kelvin]

Dear Sir/Madam,

I want to adopt the DISPATCH theme but I also want to add the view counter like in Charge theme ( https://prnt.sc/16w2tvy ), is it easy to do by hook?

I want to add social media icons and favorite heart icon to post, do you have any recommended third party plugin that is compatible with GP or GP has the bundled plugins?

Best regards,

Kelvin.

Hi there,

the Dispatch Site uses the WP Show Posts plugin on the front page, to add the Comment Count element (you see in Charge) to the WPSP would require custom development.

For the the Blog / Archive pages of Dispatch which are using the theme templates you can use a Block Element – Content Template to create that look:

And Leo actually created a walkthrough of building the Charge theme site which explains how that post card layout is created:

Regarding the Social Media icons – are these for social sharing ? Or just links to your social media pages ?
