Awesome Tracker is a simple yet powerful plugin that tracks every user visit to any of your WordPress pages server-side. It captures users’ navigation before serving the actual page, which allows you to know exactly what pages were served to what users of your WordPress site and when.
Awesome Tracker will track: 
* Visits to your pages/posts 
* Visits to your archive pages 
* 404 requests 
* Search requests 
* API calls
<h4>API REST compatible!</h4>
Set your relevant API Routes to track. Especially useful for headless WordPress installations.

Awesome Tracker

I really love this plugin right out of the box, BUT, there is one important feature missing. There is no way (that I saw of) to delete the data, manually, or even better, automatically after a number of days/weeks/ etc... As a result, especially in busy websites, your database will blow up out of control. 

I really like the filter I can apply to see the records per user, and the export feature. By deleting the plugin, not just deactivating it, the collected data are removed, but that's not a good way to run a professional website, is it?

I would love to upgrade my rating to 5 stars, as soon as there is a feature built in to control the data (delete).

Nice job, thanks.

UPDATE: As promised, I'm upgrading my rating to 5 stars ! 

It's almost an Awesome Tracker...

Track your users' navigation server-side. Also, you can track your WordPress API calls.
