## Description

The click tracker works in 2 modes:
 1. Scans posts and rewrites them to include
a tracking element 2. Enables users to create stand alone trackable links that can
be embedded in posts or offsite.

There is advanced reporting for viewing the click statistics. Reports include:
 
1. Top Referrers of clicks. Helps to coorelate where the popular links are at 🙂
2. Individual clicks.  3. Clicks by day.  4. Clicks by hour. 5. Graphs and charts
per link and globally. 6. Admin dashboard widget.

**Usage**
 The click tracker works in 2 modes: 1. Scans posts and rewrites them 
to include a tracking element 2. Enables users to create stand alone trackable links
that can be embedded in posts or offsite.

Links that are included in posts should contain a title paramater in the href to
have the reference name 
 be automatically created. Ex: <a href=”http://url.com”
title=”Link Title”>link copy</a>

Links without a title attribute will have the name parsed through the wrapped text(
if that fails default name is used (No Name Given)).

You can also create standalone links using the Link Manager to embed in external
websites.

**Future Releases**

link list grouping

**Bugs**

## FAQ

  Does it track logged in user clicks?

At the moment the click tracker makes no distinction between logged in users and
guests.

  How soon do stats show up

Stats will show up once a link has been clicked.

  I can’t get it to work! Help!!

Check if you have the Google Analytics plugin installed. If it is, make sure you
have “Track Outbound Links” unchecked. This conflicts with wp-click-tracker.

### 󠀁[Nice next to Google Analytics for outbound link tracking!](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/nice-next-to-google-analytics-for-outbound-link-tracking/)󠁿

 [Iwanjka](https://profiles.wordpress.org/iwanjka/) Enero 22, 2017

I spent i guess about hundred hours investigating all kinds of manners to track 
traffic (outbound links) to analyse functionality and flow, and be able to report
to participants on the webplatforms I / we host. Google analytics is very nice, 
but also very complex to grasp it ‘all’. This plugin is really ‘plug and go’. For
me a next step would be if it could also track clicks of an embedded google map,
look eg at http://www.transitieportaal.nl/boeken/diagnose-levensklem that is a book‘
I’ wrote on getting jammed in ‘out system’ and ‘mental care’. I contribute to create
a more healthy mental care system by referencing in the (open web / source) book
to people who I find more sense full to go to when you are depressed, suicidal, 
etc. Places, ‘therapists’, experienced people, etc. And I want to report to these
participants if people clicked on there item on the map… Well, we’ll see, thanks
for sharing this usefull tool! Iwanjka www.iwanjka.com / iwanjka@gmail.com PS: Especially
being able to click on a point in the graph and the plugin showing the clicks of
that particular day makes me happy! PPS: Anyone who is also ‘struggling’ cq working
on traffic analysis and wants to share knowledge, ask questions, feel free to drop
me an email!
