## Description

This plugin generates a list of more pupulares posts based on the number of visits
the post received. The plugin uses cookies to ensure that the user’s visit is counted
only once in each post, making the manipulation of the ranking.

You can set how many posts will be displayed in the ranking set that only posts 
from a particular CPT or a particular category will be taken into consideration,
among other settings.

        displayRanking( $amount, $post_type, $category, $print, $thumb );

        $amount - Amount of posts to be displayed. Default = 5
        $post_type - Type of post that should be considered in the ranking, if not set all kind of posts will enter the ranking. Default = null
        $category - Category that should be considered in the ranking, if not set posts from all categories will enter the ranking. Default = null
        $print - Sets whether HTML is returned or an array with the posts ranking. Default = null ( display HTML )
        $thumb - Show thumbnail or not - true to display thumbnail, default false
    ?>
    ```

## FAQ

  How do I change the look of the list of posts?

The plugin does not bring any CSS style for the list of posts, the visual follows
the style sheet theme, so to change the look just customize the CSS of the theme.

  How do I change the amount of posts being displayed in the rankings?

The first parameter of the function to set the number of posts by default 5 posts
will be listed, but if you want to change this value just set the value in the first
parameter. For example, if you want the 10 most viewed posts are displayed use the
following code to call the ranking:

    ```
    <?php
    if ( function_exists( 'displayRanking' ) ) {
    displayRanking(10);
    }
    ?>
    ```

  How to display the thumbnail of the post?

To show the thumbnail you need to set the parameter to true $ thumb, below an example
of displaying the ranking with thumbnail image:

    ```
    <?php
    if ( function_exists( 'displayRanking' ) ) {
    displayRanking( '', '', '', '', true );
    }
    ?>
    ```
