No heavy scripts. All data stays on your server.** If you are looking for a self-hosted Google Analytics alternative, a visitor counter that never slows your site down, or a real-time stats dashboard that respects privacy law, Weblix is built for exactly that: one tiny tracker request per page view, a bounded self-cleaning database and every number computed on your own server. From live online users to rolling 24-hour comparisons inspired by Google Search Console, Weblix Analytics gives you everything you need in a clean, fast, and developer- friendly package. ### ❓ Why Weblix? Unlike cloud analytics services, Weblix Analytics keeps your data inside WordPress. * No Google account required * No third-party tracking cookies * No external tracking scripts or pixels * Real-time instant statistics * Lightweight and fully self-hosted architecture * Built to stay fast on very large sites with a deliberately tiny database footprint ### 🌟 Key Features **Live Real-Time Monitoring (rethought in 3.0)** * “Pulse” realtime console: the big live counter leads (on the right in RTL) beside the minute-by-minute **bar chart covering the last 60 minutes** — you see the shape of the last hour immediately * Peak minute highlighted automatically; the still-running minute shown faded * Live counter with breathing ring, device chips and automatic refresh * **Trending Now board** — pages ranked over your online window (list length configurable, up to 200), with the number of people on each page shown right beside the title (clean plain text, momentum badge vs the previous window, NEW flag reserved for genuine bursts — 3+ visitors with an empty previous window; every page title is a hyperlink carrying its URL as tooltip) * Recent visitors feed with source chips (its title jumps to the Sources tab) * Smart insight notes never push the charts down — they live only in a bell icon in the topbar and in the WordPress admin bar, on every tab **Live Status in the WordPress Admin Bar** * Online-visitor counter and insights bell in the fixed admin bar — visible on every admin screen AND on the site’s own pages while you are logged in * The bell opens the same smart-notes panel as the console, right inside the bar; wording follows the admin profile language, so an English-profile admin on a Persian site reads English everywhere * Both indicators refresh at exactly the **Dashboard Refresh** interval chosen in Settings; the console pauses in hidden tabs and catches up the instant you return, and the new **Always online** mode keeps it refreshing even there — one source of truth shared with the console topbar and the dashboard widget, no wasted requests * Quietly stays out of the way on mobile (below 782px the admin bar has no room); the in-plugin console is untouched **The Analytics Page — Today, Any Day, and Reviews up to a Year** * One view selector switches the whole page between Today, Yesterday, any of the last 30 days and rolling 7/30/90/180/365-day reviews — the same six KPI cards everywhere (Visitors, Page Views, Views/Visitor, Bot Visits, Peak Hour / Best Day and the **Mobile vs Desktop** split bar) * Today stays live: delta chips versus yesterday at the same time, rolling 12-hour sparklines, optional faded yesterday overlay behind the hourly bars * Pick any of the last 30 days — date picker, labeled prev/next stepper, back-to-today and bookmarkable #weblix-day / #weblix-period links — for its full hourly chart and archive-backed top pages, sources, devices, browsers, OS and bots * 7/30/90/ 180/365-day reviews add daily-average and best-day cards, previous-period deltas and a mixed daily trend chart — page views as columns, visitors as a sharp line above them — with the best and worst day marked: click any point to drill straight into that day; the Publishing Clock follows the selected window * The Visitors / Page-Views switch below the chart drives the cards and tables in every view; Top Pages / Landing / Exit switcher, Traffic Sources donut, Browsers & OS mini-tables, Top Bots **Audience & Acquisition Intelligence (GA-inspired, computed only from data you already store)** * Audience quality strip: New vs Returning visitors, Single-page visit share (bounce proxy), Average active span (first last hit) * Landing and Exit page reports computed per-visitor inside the raw window * UTM campaign report( source · medium · campaign) — live from today’s hits, archived nightly to `weblix_daily. top_utms` forever after * **Publishing Clock**: weekday × hour heatmap of views across 30 days so you know exactly when your audience is most active * All modules optional — one Settings switch hides them; everything is computed from data already stored, the tracking engine stays untouched **Rolling 24-Hour Compare — Google-Search-Console style** * Last 24 hours vs previous 24 hours * Today so far vs yesterday same time * Last 24 hours vs the same period last week * Last 24 hours vs the same period 30 days ago * Three metrics: Visitors, Page Views **and Views-per-Visitor** (derived per hour client-side, like GA’s engagement benchmark) * Hour-by-hour dual-line chart; hover shows both values plus the difference* Summary cards: current total, comparison total, absolute difference and % change* Top pages and source-type tables follow the selected metric; referrer detail inside the raw-data window **Multi-Day Compare PRO** * Smart presets: 7 vs previous 7, 28 vs previous 28, this month vs last month, this month vs same month last year, fully custom ranges*“ Align by day of week” option for equal-length custom ranges — a Monday compares with a Monday * Optional normalised (%) view when comparing series of different scales or lengths * Dual-series trend chart over day indexes with per-day tooltips* Full metrics breakdown table: Visitors, Page Views, Views/Visitor, Bots, Desktop/ Mobile/Tablet, Search/Social/Direct/Referral — each row showing A, B, difference and % change * Clear empty-state notices when a range predates your archive instead of silent zeros **Classic Analytics Tabs** * Pages, Sources, Devices, Browsers & OS, Bots across Today / Yesterday / 7 / 30 / 90-day windows * Percentage share bars on every table* Pages tab built for reading: page titles are the links, URLs shown decoded, muted and single-line **Smart Insights — quiet by design** * Same-time traffic comparison (e.g. “Traffic up 23% vs yesterday at this time”) * Top traffic source of the day · Most visited page highlight · Hourly traffic spike detection * Delivered through one bell icon with a **red blinking badge** next to the live counter — open it on any tab; no insight banner is ever rendered inside the analytics pages **Privacy, Protection & Access Control** * Numbers-only hourly archive — no IPs, URLs or titles in it * Optional IP hashing (GDPR friendly) * Exclude logged-in users, roles, IPs, and URL patterns * Advanced bot detection with server-side tracking * Configurable retention for daily data and a hard-capped hourly table * Rate limiting on all tracking endpoints, same-origin validation on the public tracker, nonce + capability checks on every admin action, prepared SQL everywhere * **Statistics Visibility**: pick exactly which user roles can see the console, the dashboard widget and the admin bar status — administrators only by default, enforced server-side through one audited capability gate **Cache & CDN Compatibility (hardened across the whole 3.0 QA line)** * No security token embedded in page HTML — tracking requests are validated by same-origin proof, so arbitrarily old cached pages keep counting * Zero GET data requests: every live read (admin bar, Realtime page, every dashboard tab) travels as POST with no-store headers and cache-busting parameters — no browser, proxy or “cache everything” CDN can store or replay a Weblix number * Server-side snapshots are freshness-stamped and self-healing: a cached payload is only served while provably fresh, and a row damaged by database-optimization sweeps (the classic “frozen counter” cause) is rebuilt automatically on the first request * Crawler user-agent bypass rules registered automatically with WP Rocket and LiteSpeed so bots reach PHP behind full-page cache* REST API endpoints carry explicit no-store headers, so excluding /wp-json/weblix/ from edge caching is officially supported * Diagnostics **Tracking Self-Test**: fires one real request through your cache setup and reports pass/fail **Tools & Diagnostics** * System health, cron status (including the hourly rollup), DB sizes incl. the hourly table * “Data Safety & Storage” card: every table with its row count, oldest record and exact deletion policy * Cache/CDN detection card explaining what Weblix did about each layer — and what only edge rules can fix *“ Run Cleanup Now”: one click flushes every live Weblix cache (all locale variants)— an instant manual reset on top of the self-healing guards * Manual actions: aggregate yesterday, backfill missing hours * CSV Export · WordPress Dashboard widget · Translation status row showing exactly which language file is active ### ⚡ Built for Performance * Lightweight tracker: one deferred POST per page view (prerender-aware, so hover- preloaded pages never inflate your numbers) * Three tiny tables: raw visits (rolling 72 h), daily archive, hourly numbers ( ~50 bytes/row) * Hourly rollup filled by one grouped query per hour in WP-Cron — never on page loads * Gaps self-heal automatically when a dashboard view notices them — a missed cron night folds itself back in, it can never leave a permanent hole * The admin bar, console and dashboard widget all read the same shared, bounded, freshness-guarded snapshot instead of querying separately * Batch DELETE with LIMIT prevents MySQL table locks * All queries use prepared statements and indexed reads ### Third-Party Assets * **Chart.js** — bundled at `assets/js/chart.min.js` (minified, without source changes).

No. The tracker sends one small deferred request per page view and has zero impact on page load time. Dashboard aggregation happens in WP-Cron, not on page loads. ### Is Weblix a Google Analytics alternative? Yes — a self-hosted one. Weblix reports the same core numbers site owners actually use (visitors, page views, views-per-visitor, traffic sources, landing/exit pages, engagement rate) plus bot detection, without Google accounts, cookies, consent-banner burdens for basic stats, or any data leaving your server. ### What exactly counts as a page view? Since 3.2.1 a page view is one counted view per visitor identity (IP + browser profile) per URL per 90 seconds — the same shape as mainstream analytics. Reload and F5 bursts inside 90 seconds collapse into one view; a genuine second look after that counts again. People sharing one carrier-grade NAT IP (common on mobile networks) count separately, because the browser is part of the identity. Prerendered (hover-prefetched) pages never count until they are actually opened, and back/forward cache restores count as the real views they are. ### Is it compatible with caching plugins? Yes, by design. Since 3.0 there is no rotating token inside page HTML: tracker requests are validated by same-origin plus rate limits, so a page cached for days still counts its visitors correctly. The script URL also carries a version parameter so CDNs refresh it after updates. The same protection now covers every dashboard number: all live reads travel as POST with no-store headers, so nothing between the browser and the server may store them, and the server-side snapshots are freshness-stamped so a stale or damaged cache row is rebuilt instead of replayed. ### My counter once froze for hours and only a purge or a language switch fixed it — is that solved? Yes. The root cause was inside the plugin’s own storage, not the CDN: when a database- optimization tool deletes the internal expiry marker of a WordPress transient, WordPress silently serves that snapshot forever. Weblix now stamps every live cache with a write time and serves it only while provably fresh — a damaged row is rebuilt automatically on the first request after updating, with no purge and no manual step. If you ever want an instant manual reset, Diagnostics “Run Cleanup Now” flushes every live cache in one click. ### Who can see the statistics? Only the roles you explicitly allow. The Statistics Visibility option (first card in Settings) picks which roles can open the console, see the dashboard widget or the admin bar status — administrators only by default. Roles without permission lose every surface at once and their data requests are rejected server-side; administrators can never be locked out, and Settings and Diagnostics always stay administrator- only. ### What do the admin bar icons show? On every admin screen — and on the site’s own pages while you are logged in — the WordPress admin bar carries two live indicators: the current online-visitor count and an insights bell that opens the same smart-notes panel as the console. Wording follows your profile language, both refresh at exactly the Dashboard Refresh interval from Settings, polling pauses in hidden tabs, and both stay hidden on mobile where the admin bar has no room. ### Can I change how often the numbers refresh? Yes. Settings Dashboard Refresh (10–60 seconds) is the single source of truth: the realtime console, the admin-bar counter and the dashboard widget all follow it. High-traffic sites should pick a higher value — counting accuracy never depends on it, only how fresh the numbers feel. ### Is the public tracking endpoint safe? Yes. It accepts only same-origin requests (Origin/Referer must match your site), applies per-IP rate limits, and never embeds an expiring token in page HTML — which is exactly what keeps counting working behind page cache. An optional hourly HMAC token adds a bonus trust signal when present. Internally: prepared SQL everywhere, escaped output, and nonce + capability checks on every admin action. ### Are bots counted when full-page caching is active? Weblix registers crawler UA bypass rules with WP Rocket and LiteSpeed automatically, and marks bot renders as non-cacheable, letting crawlers reach PHP where they are tracked server-side. If a CDN serves HTML entirely from the edge (e.g. Cloudflare“ Cache Everything”), PHP cannot run from inside WordPress — add an edge rule for known crawler user-agents. The Diagnostics page detects these situations and tells you plainly, and the Tracking Self-Test verifies your setup end-to-end. ### What does the hourly table store? Only numbers: visitors, views, bots, device totals and source totals per hour — roughly 50 bytes per row, ~1 KB per day, ~30 KB per month at the default 30-day retention. No IPs, no URLs, no titles, ever. Retention (7–90 days) is configurable under Settings, older rows delete themselves automatically. ### Why can’t I compare detailed referrers for “same period last week”? Referrer names are stored only inside the 72-hour raw window by design (tiny database). For older comparisons you still get exact visitor/view/source-type numbers from the hourly archive — only name-level referrer detail is limited to the last three days, and the UI says so explicitly. ### Does Weblix use cookies? No. Weblix does not use tracking cookies. ### Does it respect user privacy? Yes. IP hashing is available, the hourly archive stores numbers only, and nothing leaves your server. ### How long is data kept? Live visit rows: 72 hours (a hard-bounded rolling window). Hourly numbers: 30 days by default (configurable 7–90). Daily summaries: forever, or up to 10 years depending on your retention setting. ### Will updating or deleting the plugin erase my statistics? No. Updating, deactivating or upgrading Weblix never touches stored data — schema changes are additive and every existing row is preserved. After an update the bell icon in the dashboard topbar shows a one-time confirmation note, and the Diagnostics page includes a “Data Safety & Storage” card listing each table with its row count, oldest record and exact deletion policy. Tables are only dropped when you explicitly enable “Delete all data on plugin deletion” in Settings AND then delete the plugin— that switch is off by default. ### Can I export my data? Yes. CSV export is available in the Settings page. ### What is “Views / Visitor”? Page views divided by visitors — the classic GA engagement benchmark (pages per session). Weblix shows it as a Today KPI, and the Compare tab can chart it hour by hour for both windows so you can see whether content depth improved, not just raw traffic. ### How do New vs Returning visitors work? Weblix hashes visitor identity, so history detection works inside the rolling raw window (72 hours stored; the returning check looks back ~46 hours). Visitors already seen in that window count as returning; the panel says so honestly instead of pretending to know years of history. ### When does the nightly archive run? The finished day is folded into the permanent archive at a configurable time on the GMT clock — default 00:00 GMT; pick whatever slot falls inside your site’s quietest traffic hours. The scheduler re-anchors itself daily, so even a missed cron night cannot drift the run time, and if a fold ever fails to fire the day is folded automatically from the still-live raw window (or the moment you open that day in the analytics page). ### Where does the UTM campaign report come from? The tracker has always stored utm_source / utm_medium / utm_campaign with each hit— the dashboard just reports them. Today’s campaigns are live; each night’s top combos are archived in the daily table so campaign history accumulates forever like your other daily stats (starting from your 3.0 activation). ### What does the Publishing Clock tell me? It folds 30 days of the hourly archive into a weekday × hour heatmap of views. Bright cells show when real visitors actually read your site — useful for scheduling posts, newsletters and social pushes. ### Where did the Today tab go? It grew into the Analytics page. The side-rail tab is now called Analytics and carries a view selector: Today (live, exactly as before), Yesterday, any of the last 30 days, and rolling 7/30/90/180/365-day reviews with totals, daily averages, best day and previous-period deltas. The long windows read the same permanent daily archive— one small row per day — so reaching back a year adds no database weight. Click a bar in the period chart to open that day, step through days with the arrows, or share the view — every selection has a bookmarkable link. ### Where did the insight banners go? They moved into the bell icon next to the live online counter. The bell shows a red blinking badge whenever fresh notes are waiting; open it on any tab to read them. No insight banner is rendered inside the analytics pages, so your charts always stay at the top. ### Weblix shows English even though a Persian translation exists — what is wrong? WordPress normally prefers `wp-content/languages/plugins/weblix-fa_IR.mo` — a language pack that is downloaded automatically only for plugins HOSTED on WP.org — over the` languages/` folder bundled with the plugin. Since 3.0 the order is deliberately reversed: the file bundled with the plugin loads FIRST, so installing or updating Weblix always brings its freshest translation to every user, and any old language pack left on the server becomes a harmless fallback (nothing to delete). If strings still look English, open Diagnostics — the “Translation” row shows which file is active and whether a file for your locale exists at all. Once Weblix is hosted on WP.org, keep translate.wordpress.org in sync as well; a plugin update still ships the newest strings instantly under this order. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Weblix Analytics – Real-Time Stats & Visitor Counter” is open source software.

back/forward cache restores now count as the real views they are * Fixed: referrer classification by exact host — wix.com and netflix.com no longer count as Twitter/X, Google Docs/Sites properties no longer count as Google Search, regional Google domains (google.co.uk …) do, and self-links through www. are Internal instead of fake referrals * Fixed: rate limits are split per request kind — outbound click beacons and the Diagnostics self-test no longer share (and lose) the pageview quota on busy sites * Fixed: a URL’s #fragment no longer splits one page in two — /#anchor and / are counted as one page with one view, the way every analytics tool treats anchors * Fixed: every Analytics tab keeps its own shareable link (Today, Yesterday, 7/ 30/90/180/365, picked days) and returning to Today repaints instantly instead of waiting on the network; view headings can no longer keep the previous view’s label * New: every console tab owns a shareable link too — the address bar follows the panel you are on (Realtime, Compare, Pages, Sources, Devices, Bots) instead of keeping the last Analytics link, so a reload or a pasted URL opens exactly that panel * Fixed: the Next arrow no longer appears on the Today view’s first paint — its visibility now travels with every path into Today, not only with later view switches * Fixed: the Realtime minute chart no longer empties on hosts where MySQL runs UTC (timezone-safe minute buckets) * Fixed: a missed cron night can never leave a permanent hole in the archive — missing days fold automatically from the still-live raw window (widened 48 72 hours), and opening a day in the analytics page folds it on the spot * Fixed: goal identities no longer shift when a middle goal slot is cleared — archived goal history stays bound to its slot * Fixed: the CSV export button now actually downloads (the form was nested inside the settings form), and its date defaults follow the site timezone * Fixed: concurrent outbound clicks can no longer lose increments, and the day’s click counters are only released after the archive row is verifiably written * Changed: the raw visit window widened 48 72 hours so the returning-visitor lookback stays mathematically safe with the earliest fold slots; bounded, self-cleaning, still tiny * Changed: Analytics page order — Devices now sits inside the Traffic Sources column, Top Bots joins the Browsers/OS band, and the Publishing Clock moved to the end of the page * Removed: the dead “Separate Bots from Visitors” switch — bots were always tracked separately, so the checkbox did nothing (zero behavior change, one checkbox fewer) #### 3.2.0 * New: engagement rate — the modern replacement for bounce rate, in the audience strip for every view, derived from data the archive already stores (zero database cost) * New: site search — the top terms visitors typed into WordPress search, archived per day and merged across periods * New: referrer domains — top referring domains are archived per day, so the sources report now works for any window * New: outbound link tracking — clicks leaving your site (download subdomains, payment gateways) counted via one tiny per-day counter folded into the nightly archive; no per-click rows, no new tables * New: simple goals — up to five conversions defined in Settings (name + URL fragment); page goals count unique visitors, click goals count outbound clicks; an empty state links straight to the settings * New: weekly email report — sent 08:00 (site timezone) on the WordPress “Week Starts On” day with totals vs the previous week, engagement rate, best day, busiest hour and the top lists; Persian sites receive Persian, every other language English; composed from the daily archive, nothing stored #### 3.1.0 * New: the Today tab is now the Analytics page — Today, Yesterday, any of the last 30 days and rolling 7/30/90/180/365-day reviews, all with the same KPI cards, charts and top lists * New: pick any day (date picker, labeled prev/next stepper) and see its full hourly chart, top pages, sources, devices, browsers, OS and bots from the archives * New: 7/30-day totals with daily-average and best-day cards, previous-period deltas and a mixed trend chart — views as columns, visitors as a line, best/worst day marked, clicking a point opens that day * New: the nightly archive stores new vs returning, single-page visits, average active span, peak hour and landing/exit pages per day * New: 90/180/365-day windows read the same permanent daily archive — no tables, no jobs, no database weight * New: the busiest hour counts unique visitors, not page views * Fixed: empty Top pages/bots on period views; date ranges in right-to-left interfaces; the busiest-hour footnote’s Persian plural; the running day can be a window’s best but never its worst * Changed: honest delta notes (previous period / previous day / “up to this moment” on Today); labeled accent day stepper; compact one-row view selector; auto-refresh pauses on historical views #### 3.0.1 * Fixed: crawlers whose user agent lacks the literal “Googlebot” token were counted as online humans — Google Search Console’s live URL test (Google-InspectionTool), other Google tool crawlers and common automation toolkits are now recognized as bots * Requests with an empty User-Agent also count as bots * First WordPress.org release;
