<p>Self-hosted website analytics for WordPress. All data is stored in your WordPress database and never sent to third-party services. The tracker is cookieless and loads no external resources, making the plugin GDPR, CCPA, and PECR friendly by default — no consent banner required.</p>
<p>Once activated, the plugin starts collecting anonymous visitor data and displays a full analytics dashboard inside WP Admin.</p>
<h4>Features</h4>
<ul>
<li>Real-time visitor counter</li>
<li>Pageviews, unique visitors, bounce rate, and average session duration</li>
<li>Interactive SVG world map with zoom, pan, and country/city drill-down</li>
<li>UTM campaign tracking with automatic URL cleanup</li>
<li>Event tracking — outbound links, file downloads, mailto and tel clicks, 404 pages</li>
<li>Custom events via data attributes or JavaScript API</li>
<li>Smart insights — exit pages, dead pages, user journeys</li>
<li>24-hour peak activity chart</li>
<li>New vs returning visitor breakdown</li>
<li>Device, browser, and operating system detection (server-side)</li>
<li>Weekly or monthly email reports</li>
<li>CSV export on every dashboard tab</li>
<li>Date range selector with custom ranges</li>
<li>Role-based dashboard access control</li>
<li>Configurable data retention (7–365 days)</li>
<li>IP exclusion list and admin traffic filtering</li>
<li>Bot traffic analysis</li>
</ul>
<h4>Privacy by design</h4>
<ul>
<li>No cookies, no localStorage, no sessionStorage</li>
<li>IP addresses are never stored — only an irreversible SHA-256 hash is used internally</li>
<li>Geolocation is resolved locally on your server (optional) — only country and city names are stored</li>
<li>No personal identifiers — no names, emails, or login state tracked</li>
<li>GDPR, CCPA, and PECR friendly by default</li>
</ul>
<h4>Zero external resources</h4>
<p>The admin dashboard loads no fonts from third-party CDNs, no remote scripts, and no external stylesheets. Every byte is served from your own server, so the admin’s IP address is never leaked to third parties while viewing analytics.</p>
<h4>Compatibility</h4>
<p>The tracking script is async, non-blocking, and under 5KB. It works with common caching and optimization plugins by using <code>admin-ajax.php</code> for data collection, which bypasses page caching.</p>
<h4>Who is it for?</h4>
<ul>
<li>Site owners who want analytics without a consent banner</li>
<li>GDPR-regulated businesses that need compliant analytics out of the box</li>
<li>Agencies managing multiple WordPress sites</li>
<li>Developers who prefer self-hosted, zero-dependency tooling</li>
</ul>
<p>Built by <a href="https://zenmarkup.com" rel="nofollow ugc">ZenMarkup</a> — WordPress support and development.</p>
<h3>External services</h3>
<p>This plugin connects to a single third-party service under the conditions described below. The connection can be fully disabled by toggling “Geolocation” off in Analytics <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Settings <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> General. Visitor data is never sent to any third party.</p>
<h4>jsDelivr CDN (cdn.jsdelivr.net)</h4>
<p>When the geolocation feature is enabled, the plugin downloads a static IP geolocation database file from jsDelivr CDN about once per month. The database is hosted as a public npm package (dbip-city-lite) and contains no user-specific data — it is the same file served to every site that requests it.</p>
<p>What is sent: a standard HTTPS GET request from your server. No visitor data, site identifiers, or telemetry are included.<br />
What is received: a gzipped database file, approximately 19 MB (dbip-city-lite.mmdb.gz).<br />
When: shortly after the geolocation feature is first enabled, then approximately once per month via WP-Cron, and whenever an admin clicks the “Update database now” button on the Settings page.<br />
Where it is stored: wp-content/uploads/zenmarkup-pa/dbip-city-lite.mmdb (after extraction).</p>
<ul>
<li>Source URL: https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/dbip-city-lite/dbip-city-lite.mmdb.gz</li>
<li>Service provider: jsDelivr — https://www.jsdelivr.com/ — Privacy policy: https://www.jsdelivr.com/terms/privacy-policy</li>
<li>Database provider: DB-IP — https://db-ip.com/ — License: CC-BY 4.0 (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/)</li>
</ul>
<h4>No per-visitor external requests</h4>
<p>After the database has been downloaded, ALL geolocation lookups happen locally on your own server using the bundled MaxMind GeoIP2 PHP reader. Visitor IP addresses are NEVER transmitted to any external service.</p>
<p>To stop all external requests entirely, set “Geolocation” to OFF in Analytics <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Settings <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> General. The plugin continues to work without country and city data.</p>
<h3>Development</h3>
<p>The plugin ships with both minified production bundles and their unminified sources, so every byte of JavaScript and CSS can be reviewed, studied, and modified without any external tooling. No remote repository or compilation step is required to inspect the code.</p>
<p>Shipped sources:</p>
<ul>
<li>admin/assets/js/src/ — ES module sources that esbuild bundles into admin/assets/js/dashboard.min.js (the single file loaded on the admin dashboard). A source map is also shipped as dashboard.min.js.map.</li>
<li>admin/assets/css/dashboard.css — unminified source for admin/assets/css/dashboard.min.css.</li>
<li>public/tracker.js — unminified source for public/tracker.min.js (the frontend beacon, <5KB).</li>
</ul>
<p>Rebuilding the minified bundles (optional):</p>
<ol>
<li>Install Node.js 18 or newer.</li>
<li>From the plugin directory run: npm install</li>
<li>Then run: npm run build</li>
</ol>
<p>The build script uses esbuild (a pure Node dependency declared in package.json) — no remote downloads at runtime, no other build tooling, no framework.</p>
