Gather data on site visits while respecting visitor privacy using Soapberry alongside a self-hosted Ackee instance.

Brooke.

Soapberry makes it possible to use an externally hosted <a href="https://ackee.electerious.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">Ackee</a> analytics instance with your WordPress site without editing any code. It provides a settings page in WP Admin to add the required JavaScript tracking elements to your site’s footer.
To use this plugin, one must have access to an Ackee instance set up with a Domain ID and <a href="https://docs.ackee.electerious.com/#/docs/CORS%20headers" rel="nofollow ugc">CORS headers</a> matching that of the WordPress domain.
The upstream Ackee project describes the project as a:
<blockquote>
Self-hosted, Node.js based analytics tool for those who care about privacy. Ackee runs on your own server, analyses the traffic of your websites and provides useful statistics in a minimal interface.
</blockquote>
The plugin’s current functionality is limited to the essential features of addding the JavaScript tracker to the footer with an option to disable tracking of logged in visits. In the future, this functionality might extend to tracking based on user roles or the ability to use Ackee’s personalization analytics with the visitor’s consent.
