There’s now an option in the Analytics > Settings menu where you can choose to delete data older than X days/years. This allows you to limit how much data is stored. Data that is older than the set threshold gets deleted daily at midnight.
It’s always been possible to give authors and other non-admins access to the analytics. Now, you can let them see stats for their own content only, so they can’t see stats for any other pages.
The public view counter has a customizable label, and now that label can be hidden completely if desired.
If you’re using Independent Analytics Pro, you can track submissions for custom-made forms. Check out the developer documentation here.
Form tracking now automatically records submissions for any forms made with Bit Form, Forminator, and Hustle.
Independent Analytics is now fully translated into Turkish.
The IP blocking feature doesn’t block IPs from accessing your site; it only ignores them in the statistics. We’ve rewritten these details in the settings menu for clarity.
Long column headings are now abbreviated and appear in full when hovered over.
Some chart metrics, like bounce rate, were showing a range of 0-100% in the axis. This made analysis difficult because the ranges are often from 85-95%. Metrics like this now show a smaller range of values in the axis.
The dark mode styles weren’t applied to modals in the Analytics menu.
There was an option that could be set for sites using MariaDB that made text-based filters run extremely slowly.
It was impossible to save a report showing only one metric in the chart due to this bug.
The Top 10 lists in the Real-time analytics report were missing data from sessions that lasted longer than 5 minutes. If a visitor stayed on the site for longer than 5 minutes, their page views after the first 5 minutes wouldn’t appear in the Top 10 lists.
The chart metrics now use the currency defined by the store.
