Description
This plugin connects your WordPress site to a Web-Tracking.eu account
(https://web-tracking.eu). After saving your Site ID in the plugin settings,
the plugin injects the tracking script tag into the <head> of your
front-end pages.
The plugin itself does not collect or transmit any data. It only outputs a
tag pointing to your configured Web-Tracking.eu endpoint.
What this plugin does
- Adds a settings page under Settings Web-Tracking.eu where you can paste your Site ID
- Injects the tracking script tag on front-end pages when a Site ID is configured
- Optionally skips the script when the visitor is a logged-in administrator or editor
- Optionally accepts a comma-separated list of URL path prefixes to mark as excluded (passed as a
data-excludeattribute on the script tag for the tracker to read) - Optionally accepts a custom domain so the script can be loaded from your own subdomain (requires a CNAME you set up separately at your DNS provider)
What this plugin does not do
- It does not collect, store, or transmit any data on its own
- It does not modify your post content, templates, or theme files
- It does not write to the
wp_optionstable beyond a single settings entry - It does not load any external resources from the WordPress admin
Requirements

FAQ
-
Where do I find my Site ID?
-
Sign in to your account at https://web-tracking.eu and open the dashboard
for the site you want to track. The Site ID is shown under Settings
Tracking code. -
How do I exclude certain URLs from being tracked?
-
Enter the URL path prefixes (comma-separated) in the “Exclude paths” field
on the settings page. The plugin will pass these to the tracking script via
adata-excludeattribute, and the tracker reads that attribute and skips
matching pages. -
How do I exclude logged-in admins and editors?
-
Tick the “Exclude admins” checkbox on the settings page. When ticked, the
plugin will not output the tracking script for users with the
administrator oreditorrole. -
How do I use a custom subdomain for the tracking script?
-
Enter your subdomain (e.g.
track.example.com) in the “Custom domain” field.
You must also create a CNAME record at your DNS provider that points the
subdomain to the Web-Tracking.eu endpoint shown in your account settings. -
Does this plugin store anything in my database?
-
The plugin stores a single options-table row containing your Site ID,
optional custom domain, the “exclude admins” checkbox value, and the
“exclude paths” string. No visitor data is stored by the plugin.
