Number of Blog Posts Created Report

[jjb868]

This one is simple enough right? Create a repost that simply displays the number of blog posts published in a certain period.

Now there is a Count of Blog Posts criteria I can choose for a custom report but I'm only getting 1 and we have definitely published more than one.

Anyone know the easiest, step by step way to get this simple report?

Hi @jjb868, I just sent you a private message!

You're very welcome @jjb868 ! Glad to hear that worked 🙂

That's right--you'll want to select blog posts as the data source for the count of campaigns as well. When you select the blog post data source, you'll see campaign properties such as the count and campaign ID in the builder.

@kvlschaefer Ok so if you select blog posts as the data source for this next one, won't that limit it to only campaigns associated with the blogs? We are looking for all campaigns in this report

@kvlschaefer Been playing around with the campaign properties for this report and I'm not getting any data and we do have campaigns we've created so there should be something

Hi @jjb868 

To build this report, select "Blog Posts" as the primary data source. 

You should be able to view the total number of blog posts and campaigns by dragging the datapoints under "Values" in the custom report builder. Make sure that there aren't any active filters in the report or the dashboard you added the report to as a filter could make it appear you have fewer blog posts than you actually do.

Hope this helps 🙂

Aww..hey thank you so much on that. The data source was incorrect for that and that did in fact work. Now, if I was trying to do the same thing but with a count of campaigns what would be the data source? Again looking for a simple report that shows how many campaigns were created over time.
