Changelog

eCommerce sales tracking has been added for Easy Digital Downloads and Paid Memberships Pro. Sales metrics are recorded automatically, like the integrations for WooCommerce and SureCart.

By default, the table in the Clicks report lists every clicked link, including the Target URL. You can now group the table by link pattern instead to compare total clicks from each group.

If you want to track clicks on all outbound links, you can use the new External link pattern, instead of tracking individual domains with the Domain link pattern.

The existing CSV download would export all the data currently visible in the data table. This new option exports data similar to what you see in the chart i.e. metrics for each day shown in the report.

Form submissions for SureForms and Kali Forms are now tracked automatically.

You can now see the forms with the most submissions and the link patterns with the most clicks in the email report.

If the email report is being sent to clients and you want a custom address for them to reply to, this new option makes that easy.

You can now enter your own text to display in the footer of the email report.

Clicks on audio and video elements are now tracked. This includes audio and video blocks added in the editor.

When using the Protocol link pattern, you can now select SMS to track all “sms:” links on your website.

The charts in the Real-time analytics report read in the opposite direction of the other charts. They now display the most recent visitors on the right side.

The CSV export options in the Settings menu have been removed as they are no longer needed with better, more robust export options added more recently.

If the REST API is blocked by the Admin Site Enhancements plugin, you’ll now see a notice alerting you of this issue.

There’s now a button you can click to quickly block your own IP address in the Settings menu.

The Top 10 lists in the real-time report display views but were sorted by visitors, which was confusing.

The customization options in the WP HTML Mail plugin were breaking the layout of the email report.

When viewing a filtered report, the Quick Stats would show unfiltered data and then refresh with the correct data, which was confusing. Their display is now delayed until the correct data is fetched.

After adding a URL filter, the button displaying the filter condition was removing hyphens from URLs and capitalizing words within the URL.

You can now track clicks on any link on your website. Configure which links to track with the Click Tracking menu and then analyze your clicks in the Clicks report. Learn more here.

The date picker is now much easier to use via the keyboard and screen reading technology.

Submissions of forms created with Avada are now tracked automatically by Independent Analytics Pro. Learn more about form tracking here.

You can now customize the email address the email report comes from. Make sure to use an email that uses the same domain as your website to ensure reliable deliverability.

Sales using the WC Price Based on Country plugin weren’t being converted into the right currencies when calculated in the analytics reports. IA is now using the exchange rates provided to get the correct sales figures.

New users will see a small popup in the corner of the analytics recommending our Getting Started video tutorial.

Tracking logged-in visitors is vital for most eCommerce stores. Otherwise, sales and activity will go untracked for logged-in customers.

For new users, the administrator role is blocked by default in the setting to ignore user roles.

The Analytics menu has a shiny new icon that better matches our brand 🙂

If you’re using the ClickWhale plugin, your link pages are now being tracked by Independent Analytics.

Users in the Rome timezone were seeing the name of the previous month above the current month in the date picker.

The extra space to the right of the analytics has now been removed.

Hovering over a sort button in the table was causing the cursor to change icons rapidly.

The chart could display missing data when it included the beginning of DST in the Cuban or Paraguay timezones.

The page URLs are clickable in exports of the Pages report, but the clickable area of each link was positioned way above the position of the actual URL.

Error notices were getting logged every time a 404 page was visited if SureCart was installed

Selecting a single day in the date picker was difficult due to a bug with choosing an end date.

IA keeps track of the first day that data was recorded, but this value wasn’t updated when the automatic data deletion deletes the oldest data.

SureCart sales are now tracked automatically and reported throughout the analytics dashboard. This integration is like the existing WooCommerce integration and lets you see sales metrics in the Quick Stats, chart, and data table. Learn more here.

You can now select which WooCommerce order statuses you want to count in the analytics.

The date picker has been rebuilt from scratch and now includes an improved user experience. The current month is now displayed on the right side, it’s easier to select start and end dates individually, and it’s faster to navigate across long date ranges.

The chart in the dashboard widget was hard to read, so we’ve increased it’s height to make it clearer.

When configuring the automatic data deletion, you’ll now see a preview telling you how many sessions will be deleted. This will help you confirm how much data will be removed and also provide extra assurance you’ve selected an appropriate retention period.

The Net Sales metric in IA Pro better matches the Total Sales metric in WooCommerce, so it has been renamed.

Unminified JS files were removed from the plugin.

Our new Getting Started video tutorial is an excellent way to learn all the features of Independent Analytics.

Changes to the table columns and filters are now restricted until the report is fully loaded.

The Real-time analytics report now displays properly for sites using right-to-left languages.
