How do the most read and trending lists work?

In this story

Where: Stories → Homepage

Open this page: admin.<your-site>/homepage (replace <your-site> with your site address)

Steps

  1. Open Settings → Site & brand → Add features. The page is called Features.
  2. Find Most read and trending under For your site. If it is not there, open Other niches. Tap Switch on (or Show in my admin). When it shows On, it is ready.
  3. If it shows Needs and a plan name, your plan does not include it yet. See Choose a plan.
  4. Open Stories, then Homepage.
  5. Add a block, or open one. Under Stories from, choose Most read.
  6. Save.

Good to know

  • Most read is kept per language.
  • A story needs a minimum number of views before it can trend.
  • Only the site owner can switch features on. Others see: "Only the owner can add features. Ask the owner to switch one on."

Common problems

I cannot find Most read and trending in my admin. Why: The feature is off or not yet installed. Fix: Open Settings → Site & brand → Add features and tap Switch on or Show in my admin. If a screen says "This feature is switched off. The owner can switch it on in Features.", ask the owner.
