Wikispooks talk:FAQ

Page Visits?

Is there any way you can see the number of cumulative visits per page on this site and are the data analysed anywhere?

https://wikispooks.com/piwik/index.php , and if I'm correct, click on the "dashboard" button on top, "actions" second and from there you should be able to see a dropdown menu where you can specify the type of data you want to see. On a related note, would be willing to please end your posts on the talk pages with "~.~.~" (without the dots and quotation marks)? Cheers! Jun (talk)

Sorry but I am not that IT literate and couldn't follow your first reply to locate the data requested. How does an illiterate IT guy like me look up the numbers of visitors in various time frames such as forever or in any one year like say 2020 for these two pages: https://wikispooks.com/wiki/User:DoubleAgent and https://wikispooks.com/wiki/Bill_Fairclough

Also I am not sure if I have understood your second comment - do you mean I should do this to end all posts on talk pages such as this? ~ ~ ~

~ ~ ~ is correct, without the spaces.

On the topic of page visits, let's go through the steps. I will put the instructions to follow below the images listed here below. This will take 5 minutes. If you click on this link; https://wikispooks.com/piwik/index.php?module=CoreHome&action=index&idSite=1&period=day&date=yesterday#?module=Dashboard&action=embeddedIndex&idSite=1&period=day&date=yesterday&idDashboard=1

You are now on the data page.

That is very helpful indeed so thank you very much. Bill ~ ~ ~

You should see a button that starts with the name "dashboard" on the top of the page pictured here. if you click on the time frame, at the top of the page, you will be able to change the time frame.

Click on the "dashboard" button, thereafter click on "actions", a drop-menu appears, click on "page titles". This will add a long list of pages and page visitors and a search bar.

If you scroll to the bottom of the new list called "page titles" that has now appeared, you'll see a search bar pictured here.

Type the page name (for example "DoubleAgent" and you'll be able to see the results. You also may want to the change the date as the default option is just for a time frame of one day. Please be aware that if you change the date (by clicking on the date button that was pictured in the first image) you will have to type in the page name again in the search bar of "page titles". This can be a tiny bit buggy in my opinion, just try again with a different time frame if there are no results.

Holding your mouse next to the page name (in this case "User:DoubleAgent - Wikispooks") will make two buttons appear. Clicking on "open transitions" will reveal what the visitors of the page did before they did visit your page

These for example are all the visits for https://wikispooks.com/wiki/User:DoubleAgent for the past 30 days. Hopefully, I've answered your questions. If not please let me know. Jun (talk) 17:31, 17 February 2021 (UTC)

This is the chart with visits for https://wikispooks.com/wiki/Bill_Fairclough for the time frame of the last 12 months.
