    Hello,

    I want to display my most popular posts by views.

    I know that there are some special plugins out there, but I'd like to use the Genesis Featured Posts widget.

    Unfortunately it doesn't offer the option to sort posts by number of views.

    Does anyone know how to fix this? Is there a code that can be added or anything else?

    Thanks for your help.

    You can do this however you would need to rewrite the PHP code in the plugin.

    Or

    You can create a category named views and add posts to it based on the number of views. You would also need to add code or a plugin that counts the views of each post.
