Why isn't my code private [solved]

Question

When I'm working on a code on SL, I usually mark it as private until I'm done with it. But even tho it's private, it still gets views. How is that possible? Private codes are supposedly only accessible if you share the link, but even without sharing the link, they still get views.

Does anyone know why that happens. Does sololearn have bots that automatically view all new codes??

Answer 1

They are your views, each time you access your own code it increments view count by 1

Answer 2

Each time you open the code for editing the view counter is incremented. View counter also counts you as a viewer.

D_Stark Ipang Thank you very much.

Answer 4

Tarvs [Idle] you welcome, i think SL need to improve it because it dosent work correctly, it shouldn't count each view from the same account and it shouldn't count views from own account,

there code dosent seen to be tracking whos accessing the code and only knows that somone has viewed it and always treats it as a new viewer.😁

Answer 5

I think there is also a time limit. So if you view your own private code then close it and reopen it quickly, no new view is registered but if you reopened it after a time limit, then a new view by yourself is registered.
