In versions prior to Joomla 2.5 it was possible to reset the counter Hits “times seen” of the articles from the backend, from the own Article Managerbut in the new versions of Joomla the development team of this CMS had the brilliant idea of eliminating this practical functionality.

This lack now implied having to access phpMyAdmin and edit the table that stores the Article Hitsturning something simple into a cumbersome task that for inexperienced users could end in disaster, if the precaution of making a backup copy has not been taken.
Luckily, there are still developers like that who remember that this type of functionality is still necessary for many users, mainly those who develop Joomla websites for end customers and need to edit articles over and over again before delivering the complete and functional site.
This developer provides us with a module called Joomla Reset Hits which will allow us to reset “Hits” Y “reviews” of Joomla articles (in addition to other Joomla elements) quickly, easily, with a single click, and without having to intervene in the database.
From the Module Managerfiltering by “Administrator” you can locate the module to configure it, keeping in mind that you should post it to the position “cpanel”.
Once configured and activated you can find it in the backend, in the top menu Site, Control Panel.
In the following video we show you how to install “Joomla Reset Hits” and how to configure it.
Don’t forget to make a backup before installing this module or any other extension in Joomla.
