详情介绍:
- Overview: see views, activity, conversions, trends, top content, traffic sources, and devices at a glance.
- Content analytics: find the posts, pages, and public content attracting useful activity.
- Traffic sources: understand direct, search, social, email, referral, and unknown traffic.
- Campaign tracking: compare validated UTM source, medium, campaign, term, and content dimensions.
- Activity and conversions: measure page views, outbound clicks, downloads, email clicks, phone clicks, site searches, 404 views, and supported form completions.
- External links clicked: see destination hostnames, paths, and click counts in Activity. The report uses retained event details and discloses when a date range exceeds 10,000 external clicks. Query strings and fragments are omitted.
- Technology reports: compare device, browser, operating system, and screen-size groups.
- WordPress dashboard widget: check cached headline numbers without opening the full report.
- CSV exports: download bounded report tables with spreadsheet-formula protection.
- Consent-aware continuity: counts identifier-free activity until your supported consent signal is affirmative, then uses a random first-party HttpOnly cookie for estimated visitors and 30-minute visits.
- Strict identifier-free totals: records eligible views and activity without cookies or persistent visitor identifiers. Visitor, visit, funnel, and attribution metrics remain unavailable instead of being presented as false zeros.
- Acknowledged custom legal basis: enables local continuity only after an administrator accepts responsibility for the site's legal basis and notices.
- Configure raw-event and aggregate retention.
- Inspect collection, aggregation, database, and privacy status in Data Health.
- Purge a date range or delete all analytics with explicit confirmation.
- Choose whether analytics tables are preserved or removed on uninstall.
- Keep multisite settings, data, jobs, identifiers, and permissions isolated per site.
安装:
- Install and activate ClearStat – Privacy-Friendly Local Analytics.
- Open ClearStat > Settings and complete the four-step setup.
- Choose the privacy mode appropriate for your site.
- Review exclusions and retention, then save the configuration.
- Visit a public, non-excluded page and confirm the first view under ClearStat > Data Health.

常见问题:
Does ClearStat require Google Analytics or an external account?
No. ClearStat Free collects, stores, aggregates, and reports analytics inside your WordPress installation. No ClearStat account is required.
Where is the analytics data stored?
Analytics is stored in dedicated tables in your WordPress database. Free sends no analytics, configuration, or product telemetry to ClearStat or WPGeared.
Does ClearStat use cookies?
Strict mode uses no cookies or persistent visitor identifiers. Consent-aware continuity can issue a random 30-day first-party HttpOnly cookie only after an affirmative supported consent signal.
Does ClearStat store IP addresses or fingerprint visitors?
No raw IP address or full User-Agent is stored in analytics tables. ClearStat does not fingerprint visitors. A short-lived abuse-control key may be derived server-side without retaining the raw address.
Why are Visitors or Visits unavailable in Strict mode?
Strict mode deliberately cannot link activity into visitor or visit estimates. ClearStat shows continuity-dependent metrics as unavailable rather than inventing numbers.
Which activity can ClearStat track automatically?
Free supports page views, outbound clicks, downloads, email and phone clicks, searches, 404 views, and supported basic form completions.
Can I export or delete my data?
Yes. Report tables can be exported as bounded CSV files. Data Management provides retention controls, date-range purge, delete-all, and an explicit delete-on-uninstall choice.
Will ClearStat slow down the public site?
The small dependency-free tracker is deferred and sends a first-party asynchronous request. Reporting and aggregation run separately from page rendering. Performance still depends on hosting, traffic, caching, and other plugins.
Does ClearStat guarantee GDPR, ePrivacy, or CCPA compliance?
No. ClearStat is built to support responsible privacy work, but compliance depends on the site's jurisdiction, purposes, configuration, notices, consent tools, legal basis, and other software.
What are the current limitations?
Geography is currently disabled. Search activity uses a separate internal marker path; other plain-permalink content URLs can still aggregate under / when WordPress cannot resolve them in strict query-free mode. Security or caching layers must allow anonymous POST requests to /metricpress/v1/collect. Strict Content Security Policy deployments may require a nonce or hash for the inline tracker configuration.
ClearStat requires WordPress 6.4+, PHP 7.4+, InnoDB, and utf8mb4 on MySQL 5.7+ or MariaDB 10.4+. A maintained database release is recommended for production.
更新日志:
- Fix timezone rebuilds that stalled when rebuilt dates overlapped preserved historical reports; retain all recorded counts at the boundary.
- Show when report processing is paused for a timezone rebuild, delayed, or failing, instead of presenting an apparently healthy updating state.
- Refresh processing status even when report totals are cached, and explain when totals may be incomplete.
- Restore missing background processing schedules without delaying existing jobs.
- Preserve retryable activity after a failed database commit and record privacy-safe processing diagnostics.
- If reports are waiting after a timezone change, open Data health and confirm the bounded timezone rebuild.
- Fix lost visits from cached pages by renewing expired collection tokens and retrying once with the original event IDs.
- Correct tracking debug messages so rejected requests are not reported as accepted.
- Add External links clicked to Activity, showing destination paths and click counts within retained history. Large ranges disclose the 10,000-click sampling limit; destinations are paginated.
- After updating, clear page, CDN, and script-optimization caches so visitors receive the updated tracker.
- Fixed public Page content mapping, author attribution fallback, goal form redirects, privacy-mode dashboard copy, source-budget diagnostics, and search-path separation.
- Added resumable, explicitly confirmed delete-all analytics controls and improved report table, filter, source-list, dark-scheme, and disabled-Geography states.
- Added regression coverage for the 1.0.7 QA findings and refreshed the packaged translation template.
- Improved responsive report controls, table navigation, dark-scheme contrast, and mobile touch targets throughout the ClearStat admin.
- Simplified onboarding and goal setup with clearer conditional fields, metric definitions, guidance, and diagnostic empty states.
- Corrected the content-mapping batch regression fixture to account for legitimate work already waiting in the mapping queue.
- Preserved all selected campaign dimensions and normalized destination-goal paths consistently.
- Added an on-demand aggregation and content-mapping action to Data Health.
- Improved pending content mapping, completed-setup presentation, and ClearStat export filenames.
- Applied the complete ClearStat light/dark admin design system to every report, settings, health, and data-management screen.
- Aligned Free and Pro brand titles consistently inside the WordPress admin shell.
- Refined the public directory description, screenshots, installation guidance, and privacy explanations for the first WordPress.org publication.
- Added patch-release provenance and package-integrity hardening so updated source is never published under the historical 1.0.3 artifact identity.
- Improved form timing validation and protected database diagnostics from exposing raw driver errors.
- Simplified analytics terminology with Views, Visits, Visitors, Conversions, and Activity across the WordPress interface.
- Made report, export, collector, cache, migration, and multisite failure paths safer and more truthful.
- Redesigned the ClearStat admin experience with compact report controls, clearer metrics, comparisons, and responsive layouts.
- Restored the ClearStat sidebar and full dashboard access for authorized administrators.
- First stable release of privacy-first, self-hosted WordPress analytics.
