Plausible Analytics Changelog

You can now get an email (or a Slack alert) when there’s an unusually high number of current visitors on your site 🚀

Thanks to the Changelog team for suggesting this and helping us build it 🙌

Here’s how to enable it for your site and how to set up Slack alerts too.

We now have a dark theme! 🌃

We follow your system theme by default but logged in users can manually choose either system, dark or light theme in the account settings.

Thanks @nurodev for the initial theme design and @Vigasaurus for making it come alive!

You told us you loved the sticky header concept so it is now live! 😍 It makes it easier to:

• See the chosen time period and switch dates
• See the chosen filters and clear filters
• Get a filter drop-down menu when using many filters
• “This Month” is now “Month to Date” with a comparison to the previous period

Thanks to @Vigasaurus for helping us build this!

By default, Plausible tracks every page you install the snippet on. You can now manually exclude specific pages from being tracked. Here’s how.

You can now navigate and analyze your Plausible dashboard even faster by using keyboard shortcuts. Here are the shortcuts that we do support.

Our private and secure shared links have a new format which makes them easier to bookmark and access again for your clients. If password protected, the password is saved so the client doesn’t need to type it on each visit. Any existing shared link will automatically redirect to the new one.

Pageview goals are now more powerful. You can use rules to group different pages or create goals for dynamic URLs. Track all the blog posts by using /blog** or track Woocommerce checkout pages for your ecommerce by using /checkout/order-received/*. Full details in the docs.

You can now find Entry Pages and Exit Pages in the “Top Pages” report. Click on the “details” button to get extra insights including visit duration for visits started on a specific entry page and exit rate percentage for individual pages.

Want to showcase your stats to your visitors? Or want to integrate Plausible into your custom built client area? You can now do so by embedding the dashboard. See instructions here.

Plausible Stats API is now out of beta! It offers a way to retrieve your stats programmatically. It is a read-only interface to present historical and real-time stats. Take any metric that you want, present it wherever you want in whatever shape you want. More details in the API docs.
