PageActivity Updates Underway


2 Comments | Uncategorized

pageactivity_ss.pngUpdate

A small update to demonstrate how the bot detection has been made customizable,
You can add/remove bots in the configuration section by simply adding their agent name to the list.

If there is someone visiting your blog who is not marked as a bot whilst they are actually a bot that just isn’t added to the list yet, you can conveniently click the red bot link in the page activity list.

pageactivity.pngWell I’ve started working on an update for the PageActivity plugin, main changes will be;

  • Grouped Visitors
  • Ajaxed statistic page
  • Option to modify the known bot list
  • More configurations

And some database improvements that should fix possible SQL errors and increase the speed at which the statistics are loaded.

If you have any ideas for what functionality to add, let me know.

I’m also planning on adding a feature that will let you log user activity for ever and ever, this would also allow you to link different users together so that you can log stats for one person that might visit your site over different locations (home/work etc..).
But this won’t be available in the next version yet as it’s a big implementation and will take quite some time (and lets not forget I still have other plugins and a CMS to work on..).
