    I was wondering if anyone knew if the number of views on thread is the number of times it has been accessed by different people or if it's just a total number of times people have accessed including multiple accesses. If you know please leave the answer in the comments below.
    Thank you,

    Total.

    It's not 100% accurate, but it counts each thread visit.

    Based on observations over time, each person adds one view, until a timer has reset (unknown time). For example, I just viewed, left, viewed, left, and viewed this thread, and the Views didn't change. However, if I come back in a few hours or tomorrow, me viewing it again will add another view.

    Likely, it is a combination of user name, IP, and a wait time.

    As well, I will move this to Help / Support. :) You'll get more helpful answers there.
