Where are view_counts stored?

Question

I have one entry that has way more views than any other. I cant find it set as a deafult entry anywhere so I dont know how it got so high. I want to manually set it back to a lower number, then see how much it increases in one day.

Where is that view_count_entry amount for an an entry stored? A db search for teh view count comes up empty...

Thx!

Answer 1

View counts are stored in the exp_channel_titles table - view_count_one, view_count_two, etc.

Answer 2

The hits for templates are stored in the exp_templates table. The column is called "hits".

Generally speaking though I think that you might get a more accurte idea on where the hits are coming from if you use Google Analytics.
