Tech Support (Parent and Student Access)/Really STUPID and POINTLESS question... 01-16-2015, 12:07 PM
... but when it says that there have been "4564 views", is that counting separate people? Or does it count me each time I look at that thread?

This really doesn't matter. At all. I'm just curious. It's things like this that keep me up at night...

Views=every time the thread was opened, so each of your multiple visits are counted if you read a thread several times (as is natural as a discussion progresses). It is not a count of unique visitors to a thread.

Thanks, Karen! I seriously spent too much time wondering about that. Now I can sleep! Ha!

It always seemed strange to me that there would be 1000 visitors to a thread but only 20 responses :)

Lots of lurkers around here, too. Which is okay, if they are getting what they need.
