/data/pageviews.json captures page view data for the last 90 days of activity and must be manually exported from Looker while logged in over VPN./layouts/partials/most-viewed.html. All this partial does is iterate over the list of pages handed to it by the calling page and produce the HTML; the logic for generating the list of pages is what is actually in the shortcode source at /layouts/shortcodes/most-viewed.html – as well as any layout files that integrate the partial, such as /layouts/ia/landing.html.
