<p>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.</p>
<p>Awesome Tracker will track:<br />
* Visits to your pages/posts<br />
* Visits to your archive pages<br />
* 404 requests<br />
* Search requests<br />
* API calls</p>
<h4>API REST compatible!</h4>
<p>Set your relevant API Routes to track. Especially useful for headless WordPress installations.</p>


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.
