Another way to enable this could be to allow for topic logic to be picked: currently there’s only the AND logic; if we were able to set and OR logic, we would be able to add all the valid paths and still get the same result (albeight with a little bit more effort on our side)

O wait, this is a very old ticket. It’s probably solves in the time in between.
]]>The way the onclick event is added to “a” tags is causing a conflict with a lightbox youtube video embed, causing it to not work properly.
Is there a way to exclude certain “a” tags containing a specific class or url to exclude these from adding the onclick event?
Thank you

At Simple Analytics, we approach things differently. Our priority is to protect the privacy of your visitors while staying compliant with strict (and necessary) privacy laws. This means some of our statistics, like unique visits, work differently.

]]>The ability to have added columns on the Events page be permanent until removed
I have a couple of columns I add to the Events page which are very important to me. After adding them, if I leave the Events page and later return to it, they are no longer included. One way to implement this would be for the headings for added columns have a couple of icons, one to make them permanently displayed evefry time the Events page is visited, and the other to cancel them being permanent.
This more of a convenience feature that new functionality but I think there are probably other customers who have the same situation as me.

Activating the plugin and coming back to the SA dashboard seeing only WordPress admin pageviews (and not able to reset the pageviews, but that is a different issue)
It is the expected behaviour

You can always use the SRI version with unlimited TTL (time to live). See SRI version | Simple Analytics Docs for more info.
You can also host that version on your own CDN or website.
]]>An npm package to do the setup instead of relying on an external script.
We are worried that the domain could change owners or the library will be updated with malicious code without us noticing, and the pulled JS file could act maliciously on behalf of our users.
Other security concerned customers could also install the library with NPM instead of the linked script.
]]>Currently there are two options for automated reports being sent out - Weekly or Monthly reports.
I would love to have customization on the information being sent in these reports.
I would like to have automated reports for each regional manager within our company. Instead of having to create my own.
I have meetings with regional managers every week, and they also hear about the current weekly reports made from simple analytics, and would want one tailored to their region.
Customizations to the current reports would help everyone in tailoring a report to specific people within a business. Speaking with a marketing team? Report on the landing pages. Speaking with regional managers? Regional reports. Speaking at quarterly or yearly reviews? Have a simple report to help with your presentations.
]]>I look at a static website (astro.js on netlify) and I get the following warning:
How do you deal with this?
]]>I want a the option Matches Regex / Matches not Regex in Goals filter.
I have nested booking routes for different event ideas and i want to build a goal for all users who visit the landing page and then go to “any” event booking route. Since there is no support for asterisks in the url filter, i can’t build that.
Even if “complex” for non tech users to use, it offers a lot lot options for customers to create a correct filter for there goals. They can create “or” filters, or use kind of “asterisks” to match different urls with unique ideas inside. Like
/course/ai/eventid23144/booking etc
analytrics.track(<event>, { info: "<some_info>" }); like other plugins that work with analytics?
Referring to the documentation: Getting started with Analytics where an event is sent using analytics.track with a payload.
I’ve sent a few events this way now, but I cannot find the payload anywhere in the dashboard.
Thank you!
]]>Remove unused events from the Simple Analytics dashboard. A simple delete button next to each event would be perfect.
Keep the dashboard clean and up-to-date.
]]>Because I don’t find any “Cancel Subscription” I switched to the Free Plan because I thought this will take effect after my currently paid subscription period. Unfortunately, Im now in the free plan with all restrictions even Ive paid until July 2025.
There is no way back to my paid plan without paying again.
Because Im on the free plan now Im also not able to write a mail to the support 
this is really a annoying practice here.
I really hope you can help out here.
Thanks a lot.
]]>I would like to know more about the referrals, ideally I would like to know what Link was used.
To better know for example what a user has used on google search to find our page or to know what converts better
Knowing what keywords lead to our site or what generally leads to our site is useful in knowing where to put more emphasis on and where is growths in user acquisition posible

There was missing spacing in the HTML tags
What gives? What can I do to remedy this issue?
