Title: Infovarious Access Trend Author: infovarious Published: November 3, 2026 Last modified: November 3, 2026 --- Search plugins ![](https://s.w.org/plugins/geopattern-icon/infovarious-access-trend.svg) # Infovarious Access Trend By [infovarious](https://profiles.wordpress.org/infovarious/) [Download](https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/infovarious-access-trend.zip) * [Details](https://wordpress.org/plugins/infovarious-access-trend/#description) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/plugins/infovarious-access-trend/#reviews) * [Installation](https://wordpress.org/plugins/infovarious-access-trend/#installation) * [Development](https://wordpress.org/plugins/infovarious-access-trend/#developers) [Support](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/infovarious-access-trend/) ## Description Infovarious Access Trend counts page views in your own database tables and shows them in the WordPress dashboard and on your site. **Statistics** * Dashboard widgets: daily, weekly, monthly and yearly bar charts, top posts, referrer domains, real-time visitors, “popular now” and today’s ranking. * A statistics admin page (Dashboard > アクセス集計) with period filters and CSV export. * Referrer domains (only the domain, for example google.com; never the full URL). **Popular posts on your site** * Shortcodes `[ivat]` and `[ivat_ranking]` (same attributes as `[wpp]`: range, limit, post_type, thumbnail_width, thumbnail_height, stats_views, offset…) and template function `ivat_get_mostpopular()` to show a ranking with thumbnails. * Shortcode `[ivat_views]` and template function `ivat_get_views()` to show the view count of a post. **Link click tracking (optional, off by default)** * Records clicks on internal links, external links and mailto/tel links, aggregated per post, day and destination. * Lists with period and type filters, an estimated click-through rate (clicks divided by the post’s page views) and CSV export. * Click map: shows where on a page visitors click, for desktop and mobile, drawn over the page. * Retention period setting (1 to 60 months). Older records are deleted automatically. **Built for cached sites** Counting is done by a small script in the visitor’s browser that sends a request to `admin-ajax.php`, so it keeps working behind page caches and CDNs such as Cloudflare. **Privacy** * No cookies are set. Raw IP addresses and user agents are not stored. * The visitor’s browser uses sessionStorage (not a cookie, cleared when the tab is closed) only to remember that a post has already been counted in this browsing session. Nothing is read from it by the server. * The visitor IP address is read from the request (the `CF-Connecting-IP` header when the site is behind Cloudflare, otherwise `REMOTE_ADDR`) only to compute the hash described below, and is never written to the database or logs. * To avoid counting reloads and to power the real-time widget, a one-way hash of the visitor IP address, salted with a secret key of your site, is kept: the latest hash per post and day, and for no longer than 24 hours one hash per visitor and post. * Click statistics are not recorded for visitors who send “Do Not Track” or “Global Privacy Control” (can be switched off in the settings). * Bots, browser prefetch/prerender requests and logged-in administrators (optional) are excluded. * No data is sent to external services. * A suggested privacy policy text is added under Settings > Privacy. **Import** * Import past daily page views from WordPress Popular Posts (read-only). * Import referrer data from the Matomo plugin’s tables (read-only). ### Third-party libraries This plugin includes Chart.js v4.6.1 (MIT License), minified file `assets/chart. umd.js`. Source code and license: https://github.com/chartjs/Chart.js (the license text is included as `assets/chart.js-LICENSE.md`). ## Installation 1. Upload the plugin folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`, or install it from the Plugins screen. 2. Activate the plugin. 3. Open Dashboard > アクセス集計 (statistics). Page views are counted from activation on. 4. To record link clicks and click positions, open Dashboard > リンククリック (link clicks) and turn on recording in the settings at the bottom of the page. The admin screens are currently available in Japanese only. ## FAQ ### Does it work with page caching or Cloudflare? Yes. Page views and clicks are sent from the browser after the page has loaded, so cached pages are counted too. ### What data is stored? Daily counts per post, referrer domains, link click counts and click position counts( a grid of 20 columns by 100 rows). See the Privacy section above for the IP address hash. ### Are link clicks recorded by default? No. Link click and click map recording is off until you turn it on in Dashboard > リンククリック (link clicks). ### How do I show a popular posts list? Use `[ivat range="weekly" limit="5"]` (or `[ivat_ranking ...]`) in a post or page. In a theme template: ` 'weekly', 'limit' => 5 ) ); ?>`. To show a later part of the ranking (for example 5th to 10th place), add `offset`:`[ ivat_ranking range="all" offset="4" limit="6"]`. Rank numbers continue from the offset. ### Can it replace the [wpp] shortcode of WordPress Popular Posts? Most `[wpp ...]` attributes also work with `[ivat ...]`, so you can simply rename the shortcode. If you would rather keep `[wpp ...]` in your posts, add `add_filter(' ivat_register_wpp_shortcode', '__return_true' );` to your theme or a small plugin. It is off by default and is ignored while WordPress Popular Posts is active. ### How do I exclude administrators? Logged-in administrators are not counted by default. You can change this in the settings on the statistics page (アクセス集計). ### What happens to my data when I delete the plugin? Nothing, unless you turn on “Delete access data when the plugin is deleted” in the settings. Deactivating the plugin never deletes data. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “Infovarious Access Trend” is open source software.
