- Geographic blocking and IP allow/block lists
- Anomaly detection and honeytoken traps
- Multi-channel alerts, including email, Slack, Discord and webhooks
- Visitor analytics for configured sites
Plugin features:
- Site key based setup
- Automatic script injection in the footer or head
- Optional WooCommerce purchase event tracking
- Option to exclude logged-in WordPress users from tracking
- Self-hosted VisitorFilters support via a custom endpoint URL
- Local script asset mode for sites that do not want to load the browser script from the configured VisitorFilters endpoint
Privacy
VisitorFilters is a Software as a Service integration. The plugin sends visitor and event data to the configured VisitorFilters endpoint only after an administrator enters a site key and saves the settings.
Depending on the enabled options, the browser script may send the following data to VisitorFilters:
- Site key
- Current page URL, path and referrer
- Session and visitor identifiers generated in the browser
- Browser language, timezone, screen and viewport size
- Basic interaction signals, including page views, route changes, clicks, form submissions, scroll depth, JavaScript errors and heartbeats
- Policy check data used to decide whether a request should be allowed, blocked, challenged, throttled or redirected
When WooCommerce purchase tracking is enabled, the plugin also sends a purchase event on the WooCommerce thank-you page with the order ID, order total, currency and item count. WooCommerce purchase tracking is disabled by default for new installations.
The default service endpoint is https://visitorfilters.com. The default CDN script URL is https://cdn.visitorfilters.com/vf.min.js. Administrators may replace the service endpoint with a self-hosted VisitorFilters endpoint in the plugin settings.
