Integrate OP3 open podcast analytics with WordPress: prefix your feed automatically and view download stats in your dashboard.

Miguel Angel Terrón

<p><a href="https://op3.dev" rel="nofollow ugc">OP3</a> (Open Podcast Prefix Project) is a <strong>free, open-source podcast analytics service</strong> committed to open data and listener privacy. This plugin integrates OP3 with any WordPress podcast site in minutes.</p>
<h4>What it does</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Automatic feed prefix</strong> — Adds <code>https://op3.dev/e/</code> before every audio enclosure URL in your RSS feed. Works with PowerPress (Blubrry), Seriously Simple Podcasting, Podlove, and any plugin that generates a standard RSS2 podcast feed.</li>
<li><strong>Dashboard widget</strong> — Shows your podcast’s downloads for the last 7 days directly on the WordPress dashboard.</li>
<li><strong>Statistics page</strong> — A dedicated admin page with download counts per episode, switchable between last 24 hours, 7 days, and 30 days.</li>
</ul>
<h4>How the OP3 prefix works</h4>
<p>OP3 is a transparent redirect service. When a listener downloads an episode:</p>
<ol>
<li>Their app requests <code>https://op3.dev/e/yoursite.com/episode.mp3</code></li>
<li>OP3 logs the download anonymously and immediately redirects to <code>https://yoursite.com/episode.mp3</code></li>
<li>The audio file is served normally from your server</li>
</ol>
<p>Your audio files are not modified or hosted anywhere else. Only the URL in the RSS feed changes. Listener privacy is protected — OP3 never stores raw IP addresses.</p>
<h4>Why OP3?</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>100% free and open source</strong> — no subscription, no lock-in</li>
<li><strong>No signup required</strong> to start measuring — just add the prefix</li>
<li><strong>Open data</strong> — your stats are publicly accessible to anyone, including app developers</li>
<li><strong>Privacy-first</strong> — no raw IPs stored, no tracking pixels</li>
<li>Every show automatically gets a free public stats page at <code>op3.dev/show/{uuid}</code></li>
</ul>
<h4>Requirements</h4>
<ul>
<li>A WordPress site with a podcast RSS feed</li>
<li>A bearer token from <a href="https://op3.dev/api/keys" rel="nofollow ugc">op3.dev/api/keys</a> for statistics (the feed prefix works without one)</li>
</ul>
<h3>Privacy Policy</h3>
<p>This plugin sends data to the external service <strong>op3.dev</strong> in two ways:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>Feed prefix</strong> — When a listener downloads a podcast episode, their request passes through <code>op3.dev</code> before reaching your audio file. OP3 logs anonymised request data (no raw IP addresses). See <a href="https://op3.dev/privacy" rel="nofollow ugc">OP3 Privacy Policy</a>.</li>
<li><strong>Statistics API</strong> — When you view the Statistics page or Dashboard widget, the plugin makes an authenticated request to the OP3 API (<code>op3.dev/api/1/</code>) to retrieve download counts for your show. No user data from your WordPress site is sent to OP3.</li>
</ol>
<p>No data is collected from your site’s visitors beyond what OP3 records as part of the redirect.</p>
