I will take some time to investigate, but seems the count API I am using is not stable anymore? not sure.

turns out the count API is down, visitor-badge will work until below url not returning 500 internal error, for now, there is nothing I can do :-(

Update:

Turns out the free count API(a personal side project I think) is SOLD to APILayer ( a company ), good news for the developer.

But I cannot find the new count API in APILayer by now, this will take some time..

How were you able to fix yours? Or, at least transfer over your numbers to a new badge?

@La-Nique I made a python script to refresh the page the same number of times as the previous views that I had.

Hi everyone, just wanted to share a very very recent update on Visitor Badge rewrite I've done. The new design isn't dependent on a third-party API like CountAPI. I have my own Redis which I will actively maintain going forward.

Please check out https://github.com/Nathan13888/VisitorBadgeReloaded for more details!!!

I've also spoken with the original creator of CountAPI, but TLDR the service could be down/unfixed indefinitely.

But in the mean time, this could replace anything relying on CountAPI. Also for those who already used my rewrite before, I am working to restore your visitor counts (as long as you use this within the past three months I have logs!).

My branch change the counting api to self-built service on July 17, 2020, so it works fine!

Nice what database are you currently using? @hehuapei

Also, for those interested, here's a section for VBR for those interested in a quick replacement: https://github.com/Nathan13888/VisitorBadgeReloaded#-migrating-from-visitor-badge

UPDATE on the restoration: over 200 badges have been restored from logs!

@huywallz the company that bought CountAPI basically took it down already... so what's the point anyway ;)

I built a countapi alternative in GO and ValKey so if you/anyone else wants to use it https://abacus.jasoncameron.dev/

I plan on maintaining it and keeping it up.
You can also initialize a counter at a specific number so you can keep your old data

Hi, I am sorry to say that, this project is stopped developing, this was just a proof of concept and for fun, and not meant to be a stable public service for visitor/views counter.

I find hits is good to switch to.

And I also created a deno version, which is deployed at deno deploy, it should be OK for persona use, you can check the source code at: https://github.com/jwenjian/visitor-badge-deno
