This plugin provides logging and statistics on views and visitors of your wiki. The statistics are a mix of wiki centric stats (like number of edits, logged in users and groups) and typical web statistics (views, visitors, traffic, browsers, etc.) and provides graphical diagrams for most statistics. It should be most useful to people using DokuWiki as their blog or homepage but provides useful stats for internal use as well.


===== Installation =====

Search and install the plugin using the [[plugin:extension|Extension Manager]]. Refer to [[:Plugins]] on how to install plugins manually.

The plugin requires the [[plugin:sqlite]] plugin to be installed.

:!: The plugin now stores all data in a sqlite database. MySQL is no longer supported and old data is **not** imported.
