EPICWP

<p>Epic Tracking lets you add event tracking to any element on your WordPress site using a visual editor. Click the element you want to track, give it a name, and you’re done — events start recording immediately. No code, no Google Tag Manager, no external scripts.</p>
<h4>Visual Click & Event Editor</h4>
<p>Open the visual editor on any page from the WordPress admin bar. Click a button, link, form, CTA, or any other element — give it a reference name and tag — and save. That’s it. The event is live and tracking starts immediately.</p>
<ul>
<li>Track button clicks, form submissions, link clicks, and CTA conversions</li>
<li>Set up events in seconds with a point-and-click interface</li>
<li>Organize events with custom tags for easy filtering</li>
<li>No coding or tag manager knowledge required</li>

<h4>Why Epic Tracking?</h4>
<p>Most WordPress event tracking requires Google Tag Manager, custom JavaScript, or expensive third-party services. Epic Tracking gives you a visual editor to set up event tracking in seconds — no code, no external scripts, no data leaving your server.</p>
<h3>External services</h3>
<p>This plugin uses the <a href="http://ip-api.com" rel="nofollow ugc">ip-api.com</a> geolocation service to determine visitor country based on their IP address. An HTTP request is sent to ip-api.com each time a new visitor is recorded (unless a cached result is available). The request contains only the visitor’s IP address. No other personal data is sent.</p>
<ul>
<li>Service: <a href="http://ip-api.com" rel="nofollow ugc">ip-api.com</a></li>
<li>Data sent: visitor IP address</li>
<li>When: on each new visit (results are cached for 24 hours)</li>
<li>Terms of service: <a href="https://ip-api.com/docs/legal" rel="nofollow ugc">ip-api.com/docs/legal</a></li>
