With great pleasure, we announce the release 6.0.0 of Viewtracker - Analytics for Confluence.

New Admin Experience

• We have visually improved the Viewtracker administration to make Viewtracker reports and settings easier to use. If you have installed Viewtracker and Attachment Tracking, you can now configure everything in one place with the unified administration.

Advanced CQL Filter

• Introducing CQL (Confluence Query Language) to the global and space report makes filtering even more powerful: Filter the reports by labels, authors or parent pages and many more attributes to get even deeper insights into your content performance.

Caching improvements

• You can now toggle whether Viewtracker results should be cached right from the UI to improve Confluence performance on sites with a lot of traffic. Viewtracker will cache the page statistics for 10 minutes when the setting is active.

Full release notes

If you are a space admin or a Confluence administrator, you can now exclude entire spaces from tracking. Reasons for this may be privacy concerns in spaces containing sensitive data or the wish to keep a space "clean".Other changes:

• You can now import views, which is handy when you are migrating Confluence to other instances
• Improved german translation of Viewtracker administration
• We fixed the Batch Insert Dark feature again.

A lot of customers asked us many times, how they can create reports with the Viewtracker Add-on. In the past there were several solutions to resolve this:

• Use the Space Usage Report defined by the Reporting Add-on by Service Rocket or via SQL Macros.
• The Viewtracker Reporting Macro

Now you can use the Global or Space specific built in reporting. With the reporting you can

• filter by spaces, devices and content type
• take a look into different time ranges and how your content performed over time
• compare spaces based on their views
• see which content is the best or worst performing content in your instance (based on views)

Bug fixes:

• SqlUtils: String index out of range: -6
• Missing build version in data migration tab

With this new version we introduce some new admin configurations:

• Ignore the views of specific group members
• Optional stop the Anonymous tracking
• Show the data only for specific users or if needed hide them for all users

Bug fixes:

• Reporting macro not working for pages in same space

Improvements:

To improve the performance and to handle a couple of millions view entries we decided to replace the current Report Table with specific SQL instead of Java side aggregation. This speeds up the table generation.

If you encounter any issue regarding this change, please contact our support :)

Spoiler: We are hard working on a very big release with a lot of cool features - coming soon

VIEWTRACKER-115 - Date format can be set in the Viewtracker macro again

With this release we add mobile support for the Viewtracker macro.

There was an issue, that only the first view date was shown instead of the last.

• The macro can now handle more than 1 million views per page
• We added some inline help, more logging and tools for the data migration

We fixed an issue in the migration script, that the last viewed date is the current date of all migrated views. Please find here a documentation how to rerun the migration, if you have this issue: https://wiki.bitvoodoo.ch/x/WgWfAg
