Hello,

That looks to be a local customization of DSpace.  It's not an out-of-the-box feature at this time in either DSpace 5.x or 6.x.  It's unclear where you got that screenshot from, but you may want to contact that institution to see if they can share the code behind that customization. Or, perhaps they will recognize this screenshot and contact you via this mailing list.

That screenshot is from VTechWorks, https://vtechworks.lib.vt.edu/handle/10919/89491. Issue https://github.com/VTUL/vtechworks/issues/317 with pull request, https://github.com/VTUL/vtechworks/pull/427, discusses how we implemented this in DSpace 5.

Hello Anne,

Thanks for sharing the code. I managed to implement these in our repositories. I added fq=-isBot in the SOLR query so that it will tally with the figure(s) displayed for "File Visits" when you clicked the "View Usage Statistics" link from the sidebar menu. I now interested to also display the Item visits or Item views. I can't seem to extract the item's ID from item-view.xsl.

Hope you or someone on this list can shed light on how to achieve this.

Thanks in advance!
