In reply to: [SlimStat Analytics] WordPress database error (s)Hi @nextstep99
thank you for your kind words, I’m glad you find Slimstat useful!
First things first: DO NOT UNINSTALL Slimstat, or you will lose all your data.
These errors you’re getting seem to be related to inability of the plugin to save the new version number in the database, which stops the attempts to update the database. If you look at phpMyAdmin, there’s a table called wp_options, and inside there’s a row called slimstat_options:
SELECT * FROM
wp_optionsWHERE option_name = ‘slimstat_options’At the very beginning of the value string, there should be something that says:
a:81:{s:7:”version”;s:7:”4.8.7.2″;s…
Please make sure that the version number in that string matches your Slimstat version. Noticed that number s:7 before the version itself? That’s the number of characters in the following string, so if your version number is 4.8.7, change s:7 to s:5 as well.
I hope this helps. If it doesn’t don’t hesitate to send me a message via https://support.wp-slimstat.com/ and we will dig deeper into your issue.
Jason.

In reply to: [SlimStat Analytics] Is it necessary to update geoip database?Slimstat takes care of downloading the latest version of the database periodically, no user action is needed. It does NOT uses a remote geoip service, because 1) it would send millions of daily requests to that service from all around the world (what service would do that for free with no clear business model? hehe) 2) it would add a delay to the tracker, since it would need to wait for the remote service to geolocate each IP, 3) some providers might block this traffic and consider it spam or DDoS attempt.
I hope this helps,

In reply to: [SlimStat Analytics] js-error in wp-slimstat.js:321Hi @51nullacht
thank you for pointing it out. The syntax we use is indeed correct, as the => operator assigns an unnamed function to the filter, as you can see in:
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Array/filter
This is valid ECMAScript 6 syntax, however it looks like IE11 doesn’t accept it. A way to solve this issue is to turn that declaration into a separate named function:
We will add a fix for this issue to our next release.

In reply to: [SlimStat Analytics] reset settingWe discussed this with the developer, and decided to cautiously reintroduce this feature. Hopefully this time around it won’t cause any major troubles.

In reply to: [SlimStat Analytics] German translationHi @thetianbao and @epiphanius1, please let me know if there’s anything I can do to help complete this submission process. We have a quite large German community, and I’m sure they would all benefit a lot from having the plugin speak their language. Our codebase is pretty stable now, and we don’t foresee changing many strings in the future.

In reply to: [SlimStat Analytics] reset settingHi @anniest,
this is currently not possible via the Settings interface. We removed this feature because people were resetting their options by mistake more than what we thought it was normal. However, you can connect to phpMyAdmin, and inside the wp_options table, find a row that has key ‘slimstat_options’, and delete it. This will reset your settings. Please let me know if you need step-by-step instructions.
Best,

In reply to: [SlimStat Analytics] German translationSorry, one last thing. The German localization team is asking me on Slack to share this link with you to learn more about certain rules they have when translating technical terms:
https://slack-files.com/T02TLC6BA-F9VR33F1V-42c2fd2c07
They said that you can definitely join their Slack community, if you want to learn more and have any questions about the process of becoming an approver for Slimstat/German.

In reply to: [SlimStat Analytics] German translationNevermind, I was looking at the stable branch, when you indeed said DEVELOPMENT branch 🙂 I need more coffee so early in the morning. I’m going to submit a request to the German team.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR HARD WORK!!!

In reply to: [SlimStat Analytics] German translationThank you so much! The threshold for the repo to start pushing the file to all the active installs out there is currently set to 95%, which in our case means reducing the number of untranslated strings to less than 50. Do you think you could submit a translation for another 60-70 strings or so? This way I can submit a request to approve them and that will take care of adding the new German localization to our package!
Again, thank you for you hard work so far!
