    Are you aware of that using the inlinePubList plugin increases the hitcount of the publications displayed with the inlinePubList?

    Everytime the inlinePubList is displayed, it increases the connected publications' hitcounts as a separate view. Is there any way of avoiding this?

    Interesting. Try adding "updateHitCount=false" without the quotes as an attribute of the inlinePubList element and see if that changes things. I took a very brief look at it and getPubFormatted defaults updateHitCount to true unless it is given the value.

    If the does in fact get rid of the hit count, we might want to consider altering the inlinePubList code. But we need confirmation that this really is a problem and that there is a solution.

    That is not going to work. You are going to need to alter your copy of pagesetter / pntemplates / plugins / function.pagesetter_inlinePubList.php .

    My copy is from current cvs. At line 54 we are calling getPubFormatted on each publication. We need to tell that function to not increment hit counts.

    Within that command, add a line of code. Change:

    'format' => $format,
    'coreExtra' => array('format' => $format,

    to

    'format' => $format,
    'updateHitCount' => false,
    'coreExtra' => array('format' => $format,

    It is late and I am not thinking things through. My apologies.

    What I forgot to say was to be sure and report your findings back to the forum since I have not tested this... and in my current state of mind that is a very good thing. :o

    Hello,
    this is something I have already noted in another thread http://www.elfisk.dk/modules.php?op=modload&name=XForum&file=viewthread&tid=976#pid3236

    J?rn, if you left the default value to true, there is other places where you need to set it to false namely inlinePublist plugin and maybe other places that I missed
    but aparently it wasn't corrected. But this is my fault, should have filled a bug report !!
