Rien ne fonctionne ! Les mises à jour ne résolvent rien…

I would pay for this plugin if the author wasn’t constantly attempting to add new features or rework its display, and breaking it in the process. Today, I let it update from 14.9.4 to 14.10, and once again, it broke two important features and I had to roll back the website to yesterday’s Updraft backup. There’s a constant nag in the settings about switching to client side tracking, because server side tracking will go away in version 15. Tried it, and the site stopped registering most visitors. Really takes away any motivation to pay for the would-be “Pro” version of the plugin, or even allow automatic updates.

We started using WP-Statistics a few weeks ago and decided to go all in with the product. We had a small issue with one of the add-ins in the product, and Amir helped us get it fixed within days. We’re very happy to use it on our site, and can reccomend it to everyone.
