SSP Click Counter

SSP Click Counter lets you track clicks anywhere on your site by listing CSS selectors in a simple admin table. No coding required. You can add, edit, delete selectors, sort rows, and reset counts per selector or all at once.

The plugin uses a tiny script with event delegation and sends lightweight AJAX requests to record clicks. Counts are stored as WordPress options.

A second admin tab (“Provided Free by StupidSimplePlugins.com”) includes a text-only showcase of other plugins from Stupid Simple Plugins. It contains no external scripts or automatic remote requests. Links in this section are standard hyperlinks that open the StupidSimplePlugins.com website when clicked by the user. No data is transmitted automatically.

Key points

• Add any number of CSS selectors to track (e.g., .buy-now, #signup, a[href*="checkout"]).
• Inline, sortable admin table with Edit/Delete actions.
• Reset counts per row or reset all.
• Nonces on all admin actions and AJAX for security.
• Front-end script loads only when you have selectors saved.
• Internationalization ready (/languages), GPL-2.0-or-later.
• No external updaters. No remote calls. No front-end UI output.

How it works

1. You list CSS selectors in the admin.
2. A small inline script listens for clicks via event delegation.
3. When a click matches a selector, a background AJAX request increments that selector’s count.
4. View or reset counts in the admin table.
