WP VisitChart v2.4.7

New feature: Featured category badge on article lists.

New setting — Featured category

A new dropdown in WP VisitChart settings lets you select one WordPress category as the featured category. Articles in that category display a ⭐ badge in the article lists. Select '— None —' to disable the feature.

Where the badge appears

  • Most Active Pages Right Now — admin dashboard and mobile page
  • Most Visited Today — admin dashboard and mobile page

Implementation notes

Uses has_term() which reads from the WordPress term cache already primed by _prime_post_caches() — no extra database queries per article.

The badge is placed outside the truncated title element as its own flex-shrink: 0 element between the title and the visitor count, so it always remains visible regardless of screen width.

Upgrade

Download wp-visitchart.zip below and replace the existing plugin files. No database changes required. Configure the featured category under WP VisitChart → Settings.
