 * Hi [@groovice](https://wordpress.org/support/users/groovice/)
 * there’s a plugin that shows a classic counter on our marketplace: [https://plugins.matomo.org/ClassicCounter?wp=1&matomoversion=3#description](https://plugins.matomo.org/ClassicCounter?wp=1&matomoversion=3#description)
 * It should work by simply downloading the plugin and installing it in your WordPress
   by uploading the zip file in “Plugins -> Add New -> Upload” in your WordPress
   Admin Dashboard. Then you can follow the instructions and embed the image into
   your website like this:
 * `<img src="https://your-wordpress-domain.example/wp-content/plugins/matomo/app/
   index.php?module=ClassicCounter&action=svg&idSite=1&period=day">`
 * Alternatively, you can also install our marketplace plugin so you can easily 
   install these plugins and themes through WordPress directly. See our FAQ: [https://matomo.org/faq/wordpress/how-do-i-install-a-matomo-marketplace-plugin-in-matomo-for-wordpress/](https://matomo.org/faq/wordpress/how-do-i-install-a-matomo-marketplace-plugin-in-matomo-for-wordpress/)

 * Hey Thomas, is there no option from the matomo backend?
    I can’t see the real-
   time counter from here: [https://imgur.com/Isbsulb](https://imgur.com/Isbsulb)
 * the matomo **real-time** tab doesn’t show any **number statistic**, only active
   visitors.

 * [@groovice](https://wordpress.org/support/users/groovice/) I’m not quite sure
   I understand what you are after. In the Matomo backend the real time report you
   are showing in the screenshot should show how many visitors there are on your
   site in the last 30 minutes and 24 hours.
 * > [View post on imgur.com](https://imgur.com/a/EYRZaAH)
 * see the number of visits/actions on the right. This information is in real time.
 * There is also another widget but it is not in real time. I have uploaded the 
   screenshots along with the other image in [https://imgur.com/a/EYRZaAH](https://imgur.com/a/EYRZaAH)
 * * Select your Dashboard in Matomo reporting page
    * Click on Dashboard -> Select“
   KPI Metric” category -> Select “KPI Metric” widget * Now you can click on the
   metric selector in the newly added dashboard widget and select any number statistic
   you are after (there are many to choose from) * Then the widget will update and
   show the number

   [https://github.com/matomo-org/wp-matomo/issues/353](https://github.com/matomo-org/wp-matomo/issues/353)
   for now and will use this as a starting point.
