Advanced Traffic Statistics: Live Radar, WAF & AI Security 1.8.3
- Thread starter Supergatto
- Start date
Depending on your server's PHP configuration, cache, or if an HTML minifier is active, XenForo's template compiler can mishandle that line-break, breaking the HTML tag and causing it to spill out as plain text.
I have completely cleaned up and reformatted the code, and I also forced a translate="no" attribute on those specific elements to prevent any future issues with browser extensions.
I have attached a ZIP file with the updated templates. Could you please test them on your board?
How to apply the test templates:
- Download and extract the attached .zip file.
- Go to your XenForo Admin Control Panel -> Appearance -> Templates.
- Search for the statistiche_pagina_report template, open it, delete all the existing code, and paste the entire code from the corresponding text file. Click Save.
- Do the exact same thing for the statistiche_widget_sidebar template.
- Refresh your front-end page (you might need to clear your forum/Cloudflare cache) and check if the chart displays correctly.
Let me know how it goes! Your feedback is highly appreciated so I can include this fix globally in the upcoming 1.8.2 release."
Yes, these worked. Also, I needed to change the word visite to visits again. Just search and replace. Thanks!
Great news. I'll include the fix in the 1.8.2 release, along with an important new feature. Thanks for testing.

Update 1.8.2 - The Age of Artificial Intelligence
NEW KEY FEATURES
AI Security Analyst (AI Radar)
Automated Daily Reports: Every night at 12:30 AM (UTC), the add-on collects the day's traffic data (humans, legitimate bots, blocked threats) and securely sends it to the AI (based on Google Gemini 2.5 Flash).
Advanced Forensic Analysis: The AI doesn't simply summarize the numbers; it thoroughly examines a sample of the last 200 connections to uncover suspicious patterns, aggressive scraping bots (e.g., HeadlessChrome), unauthorized AI...

Love the new update.
A couple small bugs I noticed.
Report page:
- The Statistics (overview) block, right side. The members count is off by one (1) added to the count. (edit to add: I just did a complete recount of all accounts in all states, and the only reason that the count could be accurate is if it also counts members awaiting confirmation at registration. I have one user that never confirmed. That's why I ask.)
Widget & Reports page:
- I notice I had a TOR visitor today and it logged as a country code "T1". If it is intended to be logged as a TOR "country" it needs an image for the flag displays. Right now the broken image displays in the flag cell on the widget and reports page.

"Thank you so much for the feedback and for loving the update!
Regarding the two points you noticed:
1. Member Count:The widget reads the official native XenForo cache (forumStatistics) to perfectly match your default forum stats block. If you see a discrepancy of 1, it's usually because XenForo's internal cache hasn't fully cleared a user who is in 'awaiting email confirmation' or 'rejected' state. Running the "Rebuild Board Totals" tool in your Admin CP should instantly resync XenForo's native cache and align the numbers!
2. TOR "T1" Flag Issue:This is a brilliant catch! Cloudflare natively assigns the pseudo-country code "T1" to all traffic originating from the TOR network. Since "T1" isn't a real country, XenForo doesn't have a matching flag sprite for it, resulting in the broken image. We will add a rule in the next patch to intercept "T1" and convert it to the default "Unknown" globe icon.
Thanks again for helping us polish the add-on!"
I am interested in this addon and downloaded the package and tried to install it.
There was an error message about the UTF code and the process did not complete.
Here is the error report

DeleteHi Tom, thank you for reporting this!
The error was caused by a character encoding conflict: the special "block" characters used in the new AI report phrases were not compatible with certain database collations.
I have just released version 1.8.3, which replaces those symbols with standard characters to ensure a smooth installation and full compatibility across all server setups.
Please download the update and let me know if everything works correctly now!

Update 1.8.3 - Maintenance & Compatibility Release
FIXES & IMPROVEMENTS
Improved GeoIP handling (TOR Network):
- Fixed a bug where visitors originating from the TOR network (via Cloudflare's "T1" code) would display a broken image instead of a flag.
- These connections are now correctly mapped to the default "Unknown" icon to maintain a clean UI.

- Fixed a critical installation error (MySQL query error 3988) that occurred on servers with...

I downloaded the new release and was not sure what to do about the broken incomplete installation, so I selected the option to delete files. I expected this warning notice to go away, but it did not.
I would welcome a suggestion.

Hi!
Don't worry, your forum is perfectly fine. This is a very common XenForo safety behavior.
When an installation is interrupted and files are manually deleted, XenForo gets stuck in a "pending action" state because it needs the add-on files (specifically the Setup.php file) to properly cancel or finish the process in the database.
I have just released version 1.8.3. You can use this new release to easily unblock your situation. Here is what you need to do:
- Upload the new version: Upload the 1.8.3 release via the "Install/upgrade from archive" button (or via FTP). This will put the necessary files back on your server.
- Clear the pending action: Go to your Admin Control Panel -> Add-ons. The warning might already be gone. If it is still there, click on the gear icon next to the add-on. Because the files are now restored, XenForo will finally let you select "Cancel" or "Upgrade" without throwing errors.
- Complete the upgrade: If you clicked Cancel, you can now safely click "Install/Upgrade" to cleanly install the 1.8.3 version.
Let me know if this clears the warning and gets you up and running!
