Hi there,

as I wished to have more grained stats about visits on tiddlywikis (others do also) I prepared a new version implementing a way to do this.

- edited -
This will add an opt-in internal links tracking (feature will be disabled by default), in order to know which tiddlers are visited just like they where individual web page. I'm also thinking about a do not track implementation and a way to notify users they are tracked.
-----------

before any PR on master, I think it is better to have some beta test since such extension may have very unhappy side effects. So I'm testing my own dog food on this page : http://sycom.github.io/TiddlyWiki-Plugins/ . But it's a (very) low traffic page so it may take a while before I got enough stats to validate.

So if you are interested and / or want to help, you may become sort of #beta tester. Please install extension on you own TiddlyWiki from this page and report any comment, bug or (let's be optimistic) satisfaction : 
- just here in discussion thread
- on last commit on github
- or by any way you find pertinent

With warm regards and best wishes for 2017

Sylvain

Hi Sylvain,
 
as I wished to have more grained stats about visits on tiddlywikis (others do also) I prepared a new version implementing a way to do this.

Could you expand a little on how your version is doing things in a more fine grained manner and what those things are, from a functional perspective (in terms of: you can now do X)? ...as compared to: $:/plugins/tiddlywiki/googleanalytics.

I take it, this PR sums it app up:

#1785 Google analytics to track internal links 
https://github.com/Jermolene/TiddlyWiki5/issues/1785

?

Best wishes,

Tobias.

Hello,

some updates about the new version of plugin (not yet released, still testing) :

* now give you possibility to track internal navigation within your tiddlywiki
* as discussed on the #1785 issue comments, the plugin now displays a disclaimer letting visitors know there is a tracker on the website. The plugin also implement do not track and doesn't track anything if activated in the browser by visitor.

feel free to see, download and test of course from http://sycom.github.io/TiddlyWiki-Plugins/#Google analytics reloaded

Best wishes

Sylvain

What happened with this, was it folded into the official plugin or is it still it's own separate thing as the link from the tiddlywiki points back to the plugin on tidlywiki...

Hello Stephen,

the plugin is ready to merge. A PR is waiting for review since it brings not only single tiddler tracking but also do not track compatibility and user alert (in order to have a law compliant tiddlywiki for countries asking this).

The version on my demo wiki is functional if you want to try / use it without waiting.

best wishes

Sylvain
