Unusual or Misunderstood Analytics Data Shown

    I’m curious to know how the analytics are calculated as the company I’m using it for say it’s not very usable. Perhaps we’re not collecting enough datapoints to make the stats worthwhile?

    For the second example of a “1 hr 24 secs” total session time, we’re not recording the pages visited, and thus, the average page per session can’t be calculated. Have you seen cases where something in the WordPress setup is not allowing for these datapoints from being collected?

    If I could find out what type of page visit data is required, I may be able to look into it further.

    Hi,

    The page id is determined using the “wp_footer” action using the “get_the_ID()” function.

    Any chance you are using a custom footer function in your theme which dies/exits before the WordPress wp_footer action is called ?

    @drabbytux Did you manage to get this working ?

    Thanks for responding, @brijeshk89.
    I looked in to our particular matter and found a large amount of AJAX page loading creating an array of sessions, but didn’t call the footer during the rendering of the content body.

    I had to manually initiate the ipbl_analytics_js_check_access function and ipbl_analytics_frontend_footer function within my template.

    Next steps will be to make sure the template can render correctly using the plugin alone without a flurry of calls to start new sessions.

    This is a bit of an anomaly for our site, so you can consider this solved.
