Core Features

Everything you need to
understand your content

Built on four dedicated indexed tables. Never touches wp_postmeta. Stays fast on sites with 10,000+ posts.

👁
Smart View Tracking
PHP, JavaScript, or both modes. Works with WP Rocket, LiteSpeed, W3TC, and Cloudflare out of the box.
🤖
Bot Filtering
30+ known bot signatures filtered automatically. Bot views stored separately so they never pollute your real numbers.
🔒
Privacy First
IPs hashed before storage. No personal data leaves your server. GDPR-friendly with zero configuration needed.
⚡
Zero Postmeta
Four dedicated indexed tables. SQL queries stay fast even on massive sites — no table bloat, ever.
🎨
4 Display Styles
Pill, Block, Inline, Compact. Each auto-adapts to your theme's colour via CSS custom properties.
📊
Analytics Dashboard
Live chart, top content leaderboard, tracking status — a clean admin dashboard that fits any WP theme.
