Plugin Description
StatPress Visitors (a highly improved fork of StatPress Reloaded) shows the real-time statistics on your blog. It corrects many programming errors of the
original StatPress and StatPress Reloaded. It collects informations about visitors, spiders, search keywords, feeds, browsers, OS, etc.
This free plugin will no longer be updated. Too much aggression from people who want a plugin professional quality without paying a single penny convinced me to keep to myself my own work and not offer it for free to a community that does not recognize the value of work done.
I am very pleased to present the fantastic work of **Gawain** **Lynch** in this new version 1.5
StatPress Visitors features include:
- [New in 1.5] GeoIP integration. Great job Gawain!
- [New in 1.5] Dashboard widget. Great job Gawain!

DB Table maintenance
StatPress Visitors can automatically delete older records to allowing insertion of newer records when your space is limited. In these case the data table is
automatically optimised after the purging of old records.
StatPress Widget / StatPress_Print function
The widget is customisable. These are the available variables :
- %today% – Today’s date
- %since% – Date of oldest record in the StatPress database table
- %os% – Operating system of current visitor
- %browser% – Browsers User Agent string of the current visitor
- %ip% – IP address of the current visitor
- %latesthits% – The 10 last pages read
- %visitorsonline% – Number of visitors currently online
- %usersonline% – Number of logged in users currently online
- %todayvisitors% – Total number of visitors for today
- %todaypageviews% – Total number of page views for today
- %thistodayvisitors% – Today’s total number of visitors for current page
- %thistodaypageviews% – Today’s total number of page views for current page
Warning: These variables can cause a break in service when the database is very large (> 200,000 lines) and should be avoided:
- %totalvisitors% – Total number of visitors to date
- %totalpageviews% – Total number of page views to date
- %thistotalvisitors% – Total number of visitors for current page
- %thistotalpageviews% – Total number of page views for current page
- %toppost% – Most read (popular) post
- %topbrowser% – Top browser
- %topos% – Top operating system
You can add these values everywhere! StatPress offers a new PHP function
StatPress_Print().
Put it in your template where you want the details to be displayed. Remember,
as this is PHP, it needs to be surrounded by PHP tags!
Example:
<?php
StatPress_Print("This page has been viewed %thistodaypageviews% times today.");
?>
Ban IP addresses from StatPress Visitors logging
You can ban IP addresses, preventing them from being included in your stats
by editing the file def/banips.dat in the StatPress Visitors plugins directory.
Update StatPress Definitions
You can choose the data to update in your database (browsers, OS, search engines
and spiders). Text matches below are based on part string matches.
The format for browsers (browser.dat) is:
[name] | [user agent text to match -without all space caracters-] |
e.g.
Chromium 15|Chrome/15|
The format for operating systems (os.dat) is:
[name] | [user agent text to match -without all space characters-] |
e.g.
Linux Android|Android2.2.1|
The format for spiders (spider.dat) is:
[name] | [user agent text to match] |
e.g.
Google|googlebot|
The format for spam bots (spambot.dat) is:
[name] | [user agent text to match] |
e.g.
Purebot Spam Bot|Purebot|
The format for search engines (searchengine.dat) is:
[name] | [domain url part] | [query search key text] | [query search key stop] |
note: there is 4 pipes each line.
e.g.
Google|www.google.|q||
So for a search engine who have a URL like Google :
http://www.google.fr/search?q=statpress+visitors
From this example you can see that the domain part of the URL is “www.google.fr”,
however as a number of search engines use regional domains, you need only enter
the http://www.google. part.
Secondly, notice the “q=” in the URL, that is the query search key text.
note: in these case [stop] is empty.
Some few Search engine have a URL not like the Google URL but like this one :
http://fr.eannu.com/benson_platinum.htm
In the case the format for search engine is still:
[name] | [domain url part] | [query search key text] | [query search key stop] |
e.g.
Eannu|fr.eannu.com|fr.eannu.com/|.htm|
note: the query text is the text betwwen [query search key text] and [query search key stop].
Secondly, [domain url part] must be include in [query search key text], there is still 4 pipes | each line.
Update images
When image is name.png
- The name of the image is the first part of the corresponding line of the definition file in /daily-stat/def
name|…|etc
- Write the name of the browser, the OS, the Search engine, the spider with lowercase
- Replace all the characters « space » by « _ » (underscore).
- Replace all characters « point » by “-” (dash).
For example, if you added the name Safari Mobile 7.0 in the def/browser file, the filename of the image must be safari_mobile_7-0.png
If you add the name Search.com in def/searchengine, the filename of the image must be Search-com.png
e.g.
the definition of Safari Mobile 7.0 like:
Safari Mobile 7.0|Version/7.0.0.400MobileSafari/534.11| in def/browser
correspond to the image safari_mobile_7-0.png in images/browser
note: the heigth of all the images is fixed to 16 pixels.
