Do you mean the "Number of times the question was viewed" like the one present above?

Yes, I think he is talking about view counter. You can move view function to the place where you want for the q_view....

Thanks for the clarification, @jatin

@rgd, you need to hook your main() function as you plan on printing the views count at the end of page and I am assuming just above footer. Here is some sample code:

function main() {

    //print only on quesion pages

    if ($this->template == "question") {

        qa_html_theme_base::main();

        $viewcount = $this->content["q_view"]["views_raw"];

        $timetext = $viewcount == 1 ? "time." : "times.";

        $this->output('<div class="qa-above-footer-stats" style="height: 20px; width:200px;">');

            $this->output("This question was viewed ".$viewcount." ".$timetext);

        $this->output('</div>');

    } else {

        qa_html_theme_base::main();

    }

}

 

Add above in your theme's qa-theme.php file. Take care about over-writing functions. Lemme know if this helped.
