All fields populated with the stats of the frontpage

Hi there,

first of all - I love this module. Thank you!

To the point. I can see that sometimes/often all the "custom" fields of nodes *on the page* are being populated with the same number - the statistics of frontpage. Consequently, all the node popularity rankings on page become useless. The next cron run usually corrects it.

The cron runs every hour (core). There is only ~50 nodes, so it's not a big thing. Date range: custom days ago. Proper authentication.

What can be a reason? :)

    Hi! During development I never experienced such thing. We've been using this module for big news sites and no such things were reported in the last 3 years, so I'm going to need more info or some steps to reproduce such issue.
    First, if these come often, could you look then to the database if the visit count is wrong there, too? There should be the raw aggregated results from GA API. Or are the visit counts in the db okay but some problematic method causes the same value to be cached as the same for every node? Until we find the root of the problem it is hard to tell what goes wrong.

    I havent't checked the database, but I've checked the "Top Twenty Results" in the GAC admin twice - there are always correct numbers. So I assumed, that the database data is also correct.

    And the "Top Twenty Results" gave me the information, that "445" I see everywhere is a Pageviews value for "/".

    I think that it's somehow specific for GAC field, because all other fields in the view look correct. Only GAC prints the same data.

    I'm using two core caches, BigPipe and core 10.2.2. It's a kind of "most popular" articles view with "exclude previous" filter. Printed on the homepage with Layout Builder.

    Btw, I can see, that GAC field in "Manage form display" is disabled - is it correct state?

    Thanks for reply, I'll try to observe it and be alert to anomalies.

    Szy.
