Overview
Statify is a privacy-friendly WordPress plugin designed to provide uncomplicated access to site view statistics without utilizing cookies or third-party services. Unlike platforms like Google Analytics, Statify prioritizes data privacy by avoiding the processing and storage of personal data such as IP addresses, focusing solely on counting site views. The plugin features an interactive chart and customizable lists of common reference sources and target pages, all viewable on the dashboard. It is fully GDPR-compliant, maintaining a local database with minimal fields for transparency. Statify also offers compatibility with caching plugins through optional JavaScript tracking and includes functionalities like spam referrer filtering. Users can easily configure and manage the widget directly from the dashboard, adjusting parameters such as the display period and list lengths. Additionally, support and active development are available through GitHub and the WordPress support forums.
Data Privacy
- Does not process or store personal data such as IP addresses.
- Counts site views, not visitors.
- 100% compliant with GDPR.
- Uses a local WordPress database table with only four fields (ID, date, source, target).
Display of the Widget
- Configuration can be changed directly in the Statify Widget on the dashboard.
- Allows setting the amount of links shown and the option to count only today's views.
- Statistics for the dashboard widget are cached for four minutes.
Period of Data Saving
- Stores data only for a limited period (default: two weeks).
- Longer intervals can be selected as an option in the widget.
- Data older than the selected period is deleted by a daily cron job.
JavaScript Tracking for Caching Compatibility
- Offers an optional switchable tracking via JavaScript for compatibility with caching plugins.
- Allows reliable count of cached blog pages.
- Requires the active theme to call wp_footer() in a file named footer.php.

Ein Blick auf die Kurven ist zwar nicht immer erbaulich, aber dafür motivierend 😉

Of course there is some information in the big solutions like Analytics or Jetpack that I got used to, but to be honest: I don’t need it anymore and do not miss it. I filter out referrer spam for values that are as real as possible and actually I just want to see when which page in the blog performs and how. And Statify together with Statify – Extended Evaluation is enough for that. Since I myself attach great importance to personal-data-sensible surfing on the Internet, I want to enable my visitors to do the same. I feel much more comfortable now and would like to say THANK YOU after 4 years of use.

Hab dieses Plugin bei allen meinen Kunden-Websites laufen. Ich liebe das Widget im Dashboard, weil es einen schnellen Überblick über aktuelle Zugriffszahlen vermittelt. Dazu noch DSGVO-konform. Und ganz wichtig: ein fantastischer, blitzschneller, sehr interessierter Support!
