Advanced Traffic Statistics: From Insight to Active Defense 1.6.3

How are your traffic stats compated to Google Analytics how accurate are yours?

Hi, thank you for the great question.

Our add-on does not sync with or directly compare itself to Google Analytics; instead, it operates via a native management system that runs directly server-side. This ensures greater privacy and gives you total control over your data.

Regarding accuracy, the system allows you to analyze traffic using two distinct metrics:

1. Total Views (Native XenForo Management):This metric counts every single page load. While useful for gauging overall traffic volume and retrieving historical data, it does not reflect the number of unique individuals (e.g., if a user visits 5 threads, it will count as 5 views).
2. Unique Visitors (Based on IP):This is the most accurate metric for understanding your actual audience size. The count is based on IP addresses: even if a user accesses the forum 10 times in a day or visits multiple pages, they are counted as 1 unique visitor. This provides much more precise data compared to simple page views.

The Bot Advantage:A key strength of our system compared to standard analytics is our Bot Intelligence. The system doesn't just count hits; it actively recognizes, classifies, and separates human traffic from bot traffic (crawlers, spiders, etc.). This provides you with clean, realistic statistics that other tools often struggle to distinguish effectively.

I hope this answers your question!

Hello, I have the Pro version. The plugin is great, thank you. My question is, the country flags of visitors aren't showing up. What could be wrong?

• Make sure you have enabled it in your settings: Enable GeoIP> YES

If enabled, tracks the country of origin for IP addresses.

Geolocation works via the file contained in the installation zip _data/GeoLite2-Country.mmdb make sure it is present in src/addons/Statistiche/_data
Check file permissions: The .mmdb file must be readable by the web user (usually www-data)

Alternatively or if you want recognition to be faster, install it on your server: maxminddb
