Certainly! You can add a button to reset the counter directly in your plugin's settings page. Here's how you can do it:

Add the following function to your Wp_post_view_settings class to display a reset button on the settings

public static function wppv_reset_counter_button() {
    ?>
    <form method="post" action="">
        <input type="hidden" name="wppv_reset_counter" value="1">
        <?php submit_button('Reset View Counter', 'primary', 'reset_counter_button'); ?>
    </form>
    <?php
}

Next, add a hook to check if the button has been clicked and reset the counter if necessary. Add this part to your wppv_api_settings_init function:

// ...
// Add this line to display the reset button
add_settings_field(
    'wppv_api_reset_counter',
    __( 'Reset View Counter', 'wppv' ),
    array( 'Wp_post_view_settings','wppv_reset_counter_button'),
    'wppvPlugin',
    'wppv_api_wppvPlugin_section'
);

// ...
// Add this condition to check if the button was clicked
if (isset($_POST['reset_counter_button']) && $_POST['wppv_reset_counter'] == 1) {
    // Reset the counter here
    global $wpdb;
    $table_name = $wpdb->prefix . 'postmeta';
    $updated = $wpdb->update($table_name, array('meta_value' => '0'), array('meta_key' => 'entry_views'));
    if ($updated) {
        echo 'The view counter has been reset successfully!';
    } else {
        echo 'An error occurred while resetting the view counter.';
    }
}

With these additions, you'll have a "Reset View Counter" button on your plugin's settings page. When you click this button, the view counter will be reset. Be sure to adjust the code to fit your specific needs. 😊
