Statistics Page looking... Raw?

Hey,

When I click to open sermonspeaker statistics in the backend, it goes to:
index.php?option=com_sermonspeaker&view=statistics&format=raw

and shows a raw XML file.

Any idea what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks,
Manuel

You're not doing anything wrong. It is supposed to show an XML file. There was a request some time ago to have such an output which would allow to export the statistic into other programs (like Excel or whatever).

The same hitcounts are also shown in the series/speakers/sermons pages.

Maybe I should get rid of this statistics view as an own menu item and add it as a tools function instead. It's something that grew like this with the years

makes sense.

Nah it's ok the way it is, I forgot I can just sort by hits etc. in the other backend views

Hello Thomas,

I get this message when trying to view sermon statistics or export them: "
This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below"

Was reading in the other thread that it is not supported anymore for the sermonspeaker versions 4.x and so. Is there any way to get graphic view of stats?

Thank you!

This just means that there is no stylesheet defined for this XML output and thet the browser style will be used.
The view is only meant to be useful for people who like to export this data. It could be easy imported into Excel to further process them.

The reason for this change is simple: The hits are now shown sortable in the respective manager (sermons, speakers and series). There is no added value in having an extra statistics view like there was in SermonSpeaker 3.x.

Ok, great. Yes, was able to export it into Excel. But is there a module that would allow it to view this table (maybe graph like or such) from the joomla backend directly just for sermons? Historical hits of each sermon and over certain period of time?

Thank you!
