Woocommerce analytics is hot garbage and I hate it
-
Every single report I try to do forces it as a comparison and I don’t want a f***ing comparison report, I just want the date range I select, and that’s it. Period. X to y, and that’s it. Not x to y, and last year x to y.
This used to be so simple, and now everything is a total chore just to get simple reports. Why did you ruin all the report features woocommerce? Why? I HATE ANALYTICS SOOOOO MUCH!
FIX THIS!

Hi there,
Thanks for the feedback. I can understand everyone has their own preferences how things should be displayed or how they should work, however it would be nice to be polite about it.
Could you clarify what you mean when you mentioned it’s a “total chore”? The previous period is automatically selected for you, so you only need to select the current date range to display the report. I can understand it might not be something you want / need, but I’m just trying to uncover the reason why it is more work to view a report this way.
Unfortunately there isn’t a way to completely disable the “previous period” at the moment. At most you can hide the graph which compares the previous period.
Having said that, it does sound like a good enhancement for users that might not need to compare it to the last period. We track enhancement requests here if you’d like to submit a request.
We’re also happy to accept any contributions and improvements, WooCommerce is fully open source.
A total chore because I can’t select the date range easily,
A total chore because it doesn’t run smooth
A total chore because it clutters up the whole report with information that I didn’t ask for
A total chore because this is a WORSE FUNCTIONING VERSION of a report that used to be easy.
The ranges also don’t display smoothly and don’t work right when you try to punch in the dates. By having 2 sets of date ranges, the one you pick, and the one that’s forced on you as a comparison, it’s impossible to jsut have the report you need.
A total chore because other reports connected to this also don’t run smooth, like best seller, and revenue based best seller.
A total chore because it is forcing data into the report that isn’t asked for, and it’s subsequent reports also don’t function right
A total chore because it’s hot garbage from what it used to be, and I can’t even pick the dates easily and the version of the report easily anymore. Even the custom drop down of dates doesn’t work right, on top of having it try to force ranges. What idiot thought that forcing ever report as a comparison of last year was helpful?
A total chore because the csv or excel sheets are EMAILED TO ME NOW instead of just being downloadable the way they were before.
If people select a feature, then it’s helpful, if it’s just forced on them whether they like it or not, and it complicates and ruins the functionality of what they had before AND what they had before doesn’t work now because you HAVE to use the analytic feature, then you’ve bombed and destroyed the simple easy functioning of what used to work, and ruined what is working now.
A total chore. That’s what that means.
