For dashboard widgets, analytics, and data aggregation, see [View Tracker Pro](https://github.com/b13/view-tracker-pro). Installation ------------ [](#installation) ``` composer require b13/view-tracker ``` Including the Pixel ------------------- [](#including-the-pixel) Add the pixel to your main template. Make sure to use the localized page ID if you want to track language versions separately. ### Option 1: `` tag [](#option-1-img-tag) ``` ``` ### Option 2: ViewHelper (recommended) [](#option-2-viewhelper-recommended) The ViewHelper automatically includes the correct page ID, language, and page type: ``` ``` Page Module Statistics ---------------------- [](#page-module-statistics) View statistics are shown automatically in the header area of each page in the TYPO3 backend. Charts include total views, last 7 / 30 days, last 12 months, and views by page type. Configuration ------------- [](#configuration) ### Excluded Page Doktypes [](#excluded-page-doktypes) By default, view statistics are not shown for non-content page types (folders, shortcuts, external links, etc.). You can extend the exclusion list: ``` // ext_localconf.php $GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXTENSIONS']['view_tracker']['excludedDoktypes'][] = 116; ``` ### Page-module statistics visibility [](#page-module-statistics-visibility) By default every backend user that can open the Page module sees the statistics widget. Two site settings narrow that audience. Admins always see the widget regardless of these settings. Import the site set in your `config/sites//config.yaml`: ``` dependencies: - b13/view-tracker ``` Then override in `config/sites//settings.yaml`: ``` view_tracker: pageModuleStatistics: # Restrict to admin users only — every non-admin loses the widget. visibleForAdminsOnly: true # OR keep visibleForAdminsOnly: false and limit by BE user group UIDs. # Empty (default) means no group restriction. visibleForGroups: '12,17' ``` Behaviour matrix (non-admin users): `visibleForAdminsOnly``visibleForGroups`Non-admin sees widget?`false` (default)empty (default)yes — backwards-compatible`false``'12,17'`only if member of group 12 or 17`true`(ignored)never### Storage Type [](#storage-type) By default, views are written to the `tx_view_tracker_count` database table. An empty Redis implementation is provided as an example for alternative storage. ### Tracking Endpoint [](#tracking-endpoint) The middleware listens on `/_b13vt` by default. The path is deliberately opaque so common tracker blocklists (EasyPrivacy etc.) don't catch it. If a blocklist eventually picks it up, override the path per site — both the middleware and the ViewHelper read from the same site setting. Import the site set in your `config/sites//config.yaml`: ``` dependencies: - b13/view-tracker ``` Then override in `config/sites//settings.yaml`: ``` view_tracker: endpoint: '/_yourpath' ``` After changing the value, flush TYPO3 caches so the ViewHelper re-renders. Upgrading from 1.0 ------------------ [](#upgrading-from-10) The tracking endpoint moved from `/_pixel` to `/_b13vt`. If your templates use the `` ViewHelper, just flush caches — the new URL is emitted automatically. If you copied the raw `` snippet into a template, update the path manually (or switch to the ViewHelper). Privacy ------- [](#privacy) The pixel records only the page ID, page type, browser language, and a timestamp. No cookies, IP addresses, or personal data are stored. License ------- [](#license) GPL-2.0-or-later — see the [LICENSE](LICENSE) file for details.
