collective.piwik.pageviews 0.1

Introduction

collective.piwik.pageviews is a viewlet displaying page views, using Piwik!

The Piwik open source analytics system (http://piwik.org/) is used to store and retrieve the page views.

Works with Plone 4 sites, not tested on Plone 3.

How to get it working

• You need to have access to a working Piwik installation. Anonymous users should have view permission for your site’s stats.

• Add the Piwik Tracking Tag to Javascript web stats support field at <SITEURL>/@@site-controlpanel

• You need to make a small change adding the link “var site_id = X;”, replacing X with your Piwik site_id For example, if on the Piwik code you have: var piwikTracker = Piwik.getTracker(pkBaseURL + “piwik.php”, 6); then site_id = 6 in your case

If you do the above steps a viewlet should appear bellow IBelowContent displaying the number of views of a page (both unique and pagehits).

Tweaks

If you want to change the behavior, edit collective/piwik/pageviews/viewlet.pt (apply styles, remove page hits or page views, etc)

TODO

• Redesign architecture in flavor of security. Right now anonymous user access has to be granted on piwik which is not a good idea…
