Resetting view counters

Some view counters need to be periodically reset (such as the daily and weekly counters). You can either do this with a special url (provided in the control panel), or by setting up a cron job or using a special url.

Resetting views with a cron job

Execute this cron at an approprate time, i.e. once every day at 00:01 pm.
It resets the daily, weekly and monthly view counters.

The cron checks wether it is the first day of the week or month before resetting monthly or weekly views.
