ClickClue Wordpress Plugin - Rating, Reviews, Demo & Download
Plugin Description
See how visitors use your pages. ClickClue records consented website interactions so administrators can replay visits, filter recordings, bookmark useful examples and add review notes. No external analytics account is needed.
Free includes recording, replay, filters, saved filters, bookmarks, notes and all privacy controls. There is no monthly recording allowance, trial period or upgrade requirement for local recording. Your sampling, retention, storage budget and hosting capacity determine how much you keep.
The separate Pro add-on adds a website Clues inbox, page click/scroll heatmaps, structural form insights, custom journeys, before-and-after comparisons, optional visitor feedback, team roles, expiring account-bound invitations, connected-site summaries and administrator JSON exports. Pro features are delivered in the separate add-on, not in this Free package.
Privacy
Capture starts only after visitor permission. Typed values are masked before upload. Ordinary page text stays readable on new installations. You can enable Mask all page text; typed values and explicitly private regions stay protected either way. Existing saved masking choices are preserved on upgrade. Images are excluded by default. Optional, administrator-approved public/static WordPress library images can be prepared locally and included in new recordings. Private regions still take priority. SVG, canvas, audio, video, embedded frames, hidden inputs and editable content remain excluded. Query strings and fragments are removed. Structural classes and IDs can remain for layout; use data-tw-block or exclusion selectors on regions with sensitive attributes.
Recordings stay in your WordPress database. Free does not send recordings to ClickClue or an external analytics provider. No raw IP addresses are saved by ClickClue. A rotating keyed IP hash is kept temporarily for rate limiting. Existing web server or hosting logs are outside the plugin’s control. No request bodies, console logs, customer IDs or order IDs are intentionally collected.
The built-in prompt saves a site-scoped consent choice for 180 days. Do Not Track and Global Privacy Control prevent recording. Revoking consent stops capture, clears unsent data and requests deletion of the current valid session. A failed deletion remains visible as pending; it is not reported as complete. Older sessions remain subject to retention and administrator deletion.
If you use an external consent manager, disable the built-in prompt only after wiring window.ClickClue.grantConsent() and window.ClickClue.withdrawConsent(). Consent is still required. Privacy controls alone do not establish legal compliance for a particular installation.
Operation
Recordings are limited to 30 minutes and 8 MB each. Oversized snapshots and event backlogs stop capture. Uploads use acknowledged batches, bounded retries and deduplication. Unsent events stay in memory, up to 2 MiB, and are cleared on withdrawal. Reconnection can resume a paused recorder with a fresh snapshot. Pending data cannot survive a destroyed browser process. Replay shows interrupted or unconfirmed delivery instead of implying a complete visit. Recording pauses when the chosen storage budget is reached; it resumes when space becomes available.
Cleanup uses hourly WP-Cron plus bounded cleanup during dashboard access and session creation. Configure a real cron trigger on low-traffic sites when timely retention matters. Deactivation preserves data. The optional Delete data when uninstalling setting controls permanent uninstall cleanup.
The player reconstructs a website; it is not desktop video. Media, external fonts, background images and unavailable styles may differ from the live page. Test performance with your hosting and theme.
Approved public images
This optional setting is off by default in both editions. An administrator can choose specific public, static WordPress image attachments and confirm that they contain no personal or sensitive content. ClickClue reads eligible local uploads, creates bounded PNG/JPEG copies and stores used copies with the recording. It does not fetch arbitrary visitor image URLs or capture visitor screen pixels. Preparation requires the PHP GD image extension and an eligible local upload. The prepared catalogue is bounded separately from recordings (up to 256 images in named collections, about 46 MiB of encoded image data and URL metadata); Only used copies are loaded with a recording: at most 64 and 2 MiB, counted towards its payload budget. Matching uses up to eight same-origin URL variants per image within a 256 KiB metadata allowance; unmatched images remain placeholders. Private, masked and excluded regions take priority. Removing approval removes stored image copies from existing recordings while preserving other recording events. Exports already downloaded require separate review. Update your site notice and test your exact pages before enabling this option.
First-use guidance
The first-visit checklist and contextual Pro-help dismissals are stored only in the current administrator’s browser. They do not send setup or upgrade-interest analytics to ClickClue, change recording consent, or limit Free features. Clear or reset the browser-local tutorial to repeat its guidance.
Translations
Interface translations use the clickclue text domain and WordPress language packs. The site language controls visitor wording; the signed-in user language controls the dashboard. English remains the fallback when a translation is unavailable. The template and translation workflow are in languages/. This release makes the interface translatable; it does not bundle complete translations for every language. Clear page caches after changing the site language.
Development
Readable source and a dependency-locked asset build are included. See BUILD.txt and THIRD-PARTY-LICENSES.txt. The tutorial opens a translated local guide inside WordPress; it needs no external documentation account. A static English copy is also included in assets/help.html.
Optional Pro previews
Clearly labelled examples explain separate Pro features without enabling them. Hide and dismiss preferences are stored on this WordPress site per administrator and included in WordPress privacy export/erasure. The selected feature stays in browser storage, scoped to this site and account, for seven days; clearing browser storage removes it. Opening previews sends no analytics to ClickClue and creates no email subscription. Get Pro opens the public pricing page with a fixed feature fragment and no site, user or recording identifiers. Pro needs Free and a successful first licence activation. Existing Free recording, privacy and storage choices remain unchanged.
