Statify

Descripción

Statify provides a straightforward and compact access to the number of site views. It is privacy-friendly as it uses neither cookies nor a third party.

An interactive chart is followed by lists of the most common reference sources and target pages. The period of statistics and length of lists can be set directly in the dashboard widget.

Data Privacy

In direct comparison to statistics services such as Google Analytics, WordPress.com Stats and Matomo (Piwik) Statify doesn’t process and store personal data as e.g. IP addresses – Statify counts site views, not visitors.

Absolute privacy compliance coupled with transparent procedures: A locally in WordPress created database table consists of only four fields (ID, date, source, target) and can be viewed at any time, cleaned up and cleared by the administrator.

Due to this tracking approach, Statify is 100% compliant with GDPR and serves as an lightweight alternative to other tracking services.

Display of the widget

The plugin configuration can be changed directly in the Statify Widget on the dashboard by clicking the Configure link.

The amount of links shown in the Statify Widget can be set as well as the option to only count views from today. Of course, older entries are not deleted when changing this setting.

The statistics for the dashboard widget are cached for four minutes.

Period of data saving

Statify stores the data only for a limited period (default: two weeks), longer intervals can be selected as option in the widget. Data which is older than the selected period is deleted by a daily cron job.

An increase in the database volume can be expected because all statistic values are collected and managed in the local WordPress database (especially if you increase the period of data saving).

JavaScript tracking for caching compatibility

For compatibility with caching plugins like Cachify Statify offers an optional switchable tracking via JavaScript. This function allows reliable count of cached blog pages.

For this to work correctly, the active theme has to call wp_footer(), typically in a file named footer.php.

Skip tracking for spam referrers

The comment blacklist can be enabled to skip tracking for views with a referrer URL listed in comment blacklist, i. e. which considered as spam.

Preguntas frecuentes

Which areas are excluded from counting?

Statify does not count the following views:

  • feeds
  • trackbacks
  • searches
  • previews
  • views by logged in users (unless tracking is activated via the settings page)
  • error pages
  • favicon (as of WP 5.4)
  • sitemap (as of WP 5.5)

This behavior can be modified with the statify__skip_tracking hook.

Can further visitor data be recorded?

Some plugin users want to capture additional visitor data, e.g. name of the device and resolution.
Statify counts exclusively page views and no visitors, the desired data acquisition is not a question.

How to change who can see the Dashboard widget?

Per default only administrators can see the widget. This can be changed with the statify__user_can_see_stats hook.

Example:

add_filter(
    'statify__user_can_see_stats',
    '__return_true'
);

has to be added to the theme’s functions.php and adapted to your needs. This example would allow all users to see the widget.

Editing the configuration is still limited to users with edit_dashboard capability.

How to skip tracking for defined users or pages

The conditions for tracking views can be customized according to page type and user capabilities by using the hook statify__skip_tracking.

Example:

add_filter(
    'statify__skip_tracking',
    function() {
        if ( condition ) {
            return true;
        }

        return false;
    }
);

has to be added to the theme’s functions.php. The condition has modified such that the method returns true if and only if the view should be ignored.

Reseñas

Of course there is some information in the big solutions like Analytics or Jetpack that I got used to, but to be honest: I don’t need it anymore and do not miss it. I filter out referrer spam for values ​​that are as real as possible and actually I just want to see when which page in the blog performs and how. And Statify together with Statify – Extended Evaluation is enough for that. Since I myself attach great importance to personal-data-sensible surfing on the Internet, I want to enable my visitors to do the same. I feel much more comfortable now and would like to say THANK YOU after 4 years of use.

Hab dieses Plugin bei allen meinen Kunden-Websites laufen. Ich liebe das Widget im Dashboard, weil es einen schnellen Überblick über aktuelle Zugriffszahlen vermittelt. Dazu noch DSGVO-konform. Und ganz wichtig: ein fantastischer, blitzschneller, sehr interessierter Support!

Statify ist mein Standard Wordpress Plugin für einfache Statistiken, mit einem Blick ins Dashboard sehe ich die Aktivität über eine selbst gewählten Zeitverlauf. Statify nutzt wenig Resorchen, ist Datensparsam und reicht für die meinsten Websites völlig aus. Vielen Dank an das Pluginkollektiv für dieses und andere Plugins die einfach funktionieren und DSGVO-Kompatibel sind.
