I have a plugin in my sidebar that shows most popular posts for the whole site and is defined by number of page views. This is a widely used plugin, but what I am looking for is another plugin that can be installed in the category section and will show the most popular posts in that category. This will obviously be placed inside the category section at the top before the posts in that category are listed.
Or, it could be a plugin that allows the user to choose the category they want too see the most popular posts from. This can be placed in the sidebar or anywhere else so it shows up on all pages.
Either way is fine. Are there such plugins?
Its just that as I write more posts, the older posts and the most popular ones will be more difficult to find as the newer posts will be listed on the front page in their respective category.
I have pages that have been read hundreds of thousands of times while other newer ones that have been read a few hundred times. I just want to make it easier for people to find those really popular pages, some of which have many comments which I feel can help our readers.
