FriendsOfFlarum Analytics - tracking user visits

bikepost

@luceos I understand but I don't think my host uses Cloudflare. How do I check?

This thread needs moderation attention ? I'm at a loss where to start splitting though ?

For me Piwik integration did not work with this extension. _paq.push(['setSiteId', '1']); gets included with ##piwik_options## and not at its appropriate place after _paq.push(['setTrackerUrl', u+'piwik.php']);, so nothing got tracked.
I don’t know if this was also responsible for the iframe only giving a 500 error in the Flarum admin interface, but possibly?

I have now manually included the correct tracking code in core/views/app.blade.php and tracking works.
But it only tracks initial visits and when you refresh a page. So not pages visited via the forum navigation (until refreshed). Is there a setting to change this behaviour or is it just due to how Flarum is built?

jenolan

Do you think you could add an option to set the username ie

_paq.push(['setUserId', '<?=$user['username']?>')

That's from my site not Flarum

Thanks,
Larry

jenolan where would that $user variable come from ?

Registering the Flarum username, email or id as the Piwik user id with this extension would make sense though.

Just released version 0.6.0 !

Update with the following command (or use Bazaar):

composer require flagrow/flarum-ext-analytics
php flarum cache:clear

This extension didn't receive much love during this year... It was about time:

Fixed Piwik not tracking page url change correctly
Added the option to track users by username or email in Piwik, following jenolan suggestion. It's disabled by default
Added the option to specify a protocol with the Piwik domain, so you can force https:// analytics for non-https forum for example. Defaults to // as before if not specified
Updated the settings UI to use Flarum components instead of non-styled HTML inputs
Fixed a potential XSS vulnerability if you enabled the "Track subdomains" option
Cleaned up the code

Edit: replaced ~~composer update flagrow/flarum-ext-analytics~~ which does not work to update to that new version ?

jenolan

The username is what it wants, non-logged in you just do not set it. Of course the email (etc) an option setting?

clarkwinkelmann

I implemented the feature https://github.com/flagrow/flarum-ext-analytics/pull/12

It will be available in the next release, once I get somebody else from Flagrow to review my PR ?

I also fixed the url tracking when browsing from page to page inside Flarum (the url didn't change in the Piwik logs when browsing from page to page inside Flarum).

jenolan

clarkwinkelmann excellento thanks for a helpful plugin even better!

jenolan

clarkwinkelmann Heya Thanks! Will install and give it a whirl!

Just tried to upgrade doesn't load via composer

This might happen when your composer holds the version to 0.5. Try using composer require flagrow/flarum-ext-analytics instead.

jenolan

luceos Yup you are right, that's a funny behaviour for composer ;-)

php flarum cache:clear rm -f assets/rev-manifest.json
Also hard refresh (CTRL+F5) your browser.

Radu

jordanjay29 much appreciate it.

Radu

jordanjay29 I have done all that but I get same results (like in the screenshot). ?

luceos

Radu if you're using cloudflare also clear that cache, clear your browsers cache hard (!) and run the command jordanjay29 mentions.

no analytics tab ? what to do ? i already active the google analytics option and add the Track code ID...

gurjyot

KazeroG The tab will only show if you setup and enable Piwik analytics. For Google analytics, you have to visit Google analytics only.

Any update for beta 0.7?

clarkwinkelmann

farizfnb Flagrow Analytics is beta7 compatible ? What is your issue ?
