    Hello Tosin,

    Try this one:

    

add_filter( 'the_excerpt', function ( $excerpt ) {
	if ( ! function_exists( 'Post_Views_Counter' ) ) {
		return $excerpt;
	}

	return $excerpt . do_shortcode( '[post-views]' );
} );

    Regards
    Ravi

    The code worked but caused another issue in my blog archive pages.
    I have already added the post views shortcode into my content.php file but now your code adds another counter to the excerpt in my archive page.

    Your code should only display in buddyblog excerpt

    Thanks Ravi

    Hello Tosin,

    You can use ‘bp_is_buddyblog_component’ for BuddyBlog or ‘bblpro_get_queried_post_id’ for BuddyBlog Pro plugin to limit the_excerpt call.

    Please try the following code:

    

add_filter( 'the_excerpt', function ( $excerpt ) {

	if ( ! function_exists( 'Post_Views_Counter' ) ) {
		return $excerpt;
	}

	$alter = false;

	if ( function_exists( 'bp_is_buddyblog_component' ) && bp_is_buddyblog_component() ) {
		$alter = true;
	} elseif ( function_exists( 'bblpro_get_queried_post_id' ) && bblpro_get_queried_post_id() ) {
		$alter = true;
	}

	if ( ! $alter ) {
		return $excerpt;
	}

	return $excerpt . do_shortcode( '[post-views]' );
} );

    Regards
    Ravi

    Hello Ravi,

    This is not resolved, like I stated in the last thread that the code did not work for me.

    The counter did not display in buddyblog at all.

    Thanks

    Hello Tosin,

    Thank you for the acknowledgement. Please try the following code:

    

/* Display post views counter plugin in buddyblog post management */
add_filter( 'pvc_display_views_count', function ( $display ) {
	if ( ! function_exists( 'buddyblog_pro' ) ) {
		return $display;
	}
	$pvc = Post_Views_Counter();
	if ( empty( $pvc->options['display'] ) || empty( $pvc->options['display']['post_types_display'] ) ) {
		return $display;
	}
	$current_post_type = bblpro_get_current_post_type();
	if ( ! $display && $current_post_type && in_array( $current_post_type, (array) $pvc->options['display']['post_types_display'] ) ) {
		$display = true;
	}

	return $display;
} );

add_filter( 'the_excerpt', function ( $excerpt ) {

	if ( ! function_exists( 'Post_Views_Counter' ) || ! function_exists( 'buddypress' ) || ! bp_is_user() ) {
		return $excerpt;
	}

	$alter = false;

	if ( function_exists( 'bblpro_get_current_post_type' ) && bblpro_get_current_post_type() ) {

    Hello Tosin,

    Please ignore my last reply and use the following code only:

    
add_filter( 'the_excerpt', function ( $excerpt ) {

	if ( ! function_exists( 'Post_Views_Counter' ) || ! function_exists( 'buddypress' ) || ! bp_is_user() ) {
		return $excerpt;
	}

	if ( ! function_exists( 'bblpro_get_current_post_type' ) ) {
		return $excerpt;
	}

	$current_post_type = bblpro_get_current_post_type();

	if ( $current_post_type && in_array( $current_post_type, (array) Post_Views_Counter()->options['display']['post_types_display'] ) ) {
		$excerpt = $excerpt . do_shortcode( '[post-views]' );
	}

	return $excerpt;
} );

    Please let me know if it works or not.

    Regards
    Ravi
