What do you consider a view? How do people get to that inage? Typically you can add a custom action that increments a counter before opening the image.

in fact I have already added the action and in the database I created a specific user column and a roll up column, but the problem is that each user only sees the number 1 which is their view, but don’t see the total number of all users who viewed the image

Add another column, a basic one and point your action to the new column… do your rollup on that new basic column

User specific columns are calculated on each users device… so you can’t roll them up globally… you’ll need a basic column for that.
