Ok. Try looking at you referer table in the database directly with a mySQL
client. If it is nonempty, the entries there are probably just too old to
be counted by the "hot blogs" query. If it is empty it suggests that
either the cleanup ran or an improper export/reimport.
The periodic cleanup task is
org.apache.roller.presentation.TurnoverReferersTask.
It can be executed daily within the server by adding/uncommenting the
following snippet in
your roller.properties / roller-custom.properties file.
---
# Comma separated list of task classnames to be executed once per day
tasks.daily=org.apache.roller.presentation.TurnoverReferersTask
---
The class also has a main method that allows it to be run (with requisite
classpath) directly from, e.g., a cron job.

thanks;
can you please ellaborate about the periodic cleanup task? i did not know
such a thing existed. i thought the hit count just keeps on growing and
growing... is the periodic task configurable in any way?
thanks

It's computed by a query on the recent referrer counts which are stored in
the "referer" (sic.) table. Perhaps you didn't export these, or you
cleared them out, or the periodic cleanup task ran and cleared them out?

Hi all;
Is the hit number for "hot blogs" saved in the DB? (Which table?).
For some reason the number was reset for all my blogs in my roller web
app.
I am doing some testing, dumping the DB and populating the DB from time
to time but I can't find a reason for why the number was reset to 0.
I am using roller 2.3/tomcat 5.5.17/mysql 4.1.16
Thanks in advance.
