Hi Bmen,
are you using any custom plugins to allow your users to log into their dashboard? Slimstat looks for a very specific cookie that WordPress assigns to your logged in users. If that cookie is not found, Slimstat assumes your visitor is a guest.

yes,
i use my own to log-in and register.
Is there any way to fix this feature?
I could do code change if required.
Thank you for help.

Hi,
the ideal solution would be to write a custom add-on that hooks into Slimstat’s filters to add that information to the page view, before it’s recorded in the database. You can find a list of available hooks and filters in our online knowledge base at:

We can help you implement this feature, for a fee.

Jason,
Do you have any example i could use it?
Is this complicated to write or simple few lines would sort out the problem?
Best,
Hi,
our knowledge base can help you with that:

Please note that slimstat_filter_pageview_stat is exactly the filter you need for your specific situation. The function do_something_with_this_pageview will read the value of the cookie your plugin uses to keep track of logged-in users, and set the corresponding value in the $_stat array: $_stat[‘username’] and then return the whole array.
I hope this makes sense.

Jason,
I just realized that my plugin actually uses wp-login.php of WP.
So wp-login.php perform login and the rest. I use only redirect function.
My custom plugin is based on this tutorial
https://code.tutsplus.com/tutorials/build-a-custom-wordpress-user-flow-part-1-replace-the-login-page–cms-23627
I also noticed that only Subscriber is not displayed at all. The rest of users (Guest and Contributors, even my own Subscriber-Mod, which is copy of Subscriber and added one more capability ) are displayed rather correctly. Guests are grey and the rest on dark yellow. But no logged-In standard Subscriber.
Any clue what could cause the problem.
I was thinking that i will need to export the database to excel or maybe user overview so we could combine task?
How i could contact you?

This is indeed quite strange. Are you sure you don’t have any settings in Slimstat telling the plugin to NOT TRACK Subscribers? Otherwise, I don’t see why that would happen, since the only detail Slimstat is using to determine if a user is logged in, is the cookie set by WordPress. Which should be the same regardless of the user role.

Jason,
You were right, there was some setting issue. I changed from to server from client.
Its better now but i don’t see outbound links and referals?
Do you have somewhere default setting to load?
Best,
Hi,
you can do that by deleting the option slimstat_options in your database.

Jason
Jason,
Done, options deleted so i loaded default settings.
and does not work 🙁
On default tracking is set to Server, where i can see guests, and logged in ussers( all except the subscriber), inbound and outbound referrers.
But as i said not Subscribers.
If i switch to Client then i see all logged In users ( full data) and also Subscribers, their inbound referrers but still outbound referrers are missing.
In mean time i see all bots etc.
I think there is some bag in the code, possible on your side.
I use also plugin WP-UserOnline and it detect all users, IP.
If you would like to investigate the problem let me know so i could help if i can.
i use WP 4.7.5.

Bogaty,
we’re more than happy to look into it. However, we could not reproduce the issue on our end at this time.
Best,
Jason.
