Denne utvidelsen **har ikke blitt testet mot noen av de siste 3 hovedutgivelsene
av WordPress**. Den er kanskje ikke lenger holdt vedlike eller støttet, og den kan
ha kompatibilitetsproblemer med nyeste versjoner av WordPress.

## Beskrivelse

A powerful site referrer analytics plugin. Get insights into types of referring 
traffic, automated [GA campaign URLs](https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/1033863),
and useful tracking data for advanced reporting, conversation tracking, and 3rd-
party integration.

#### On-site Reporting & Statistics

A powerful tool that allows owners to gain valuable insights into referring traffic.
View on-site reporting and statistics with interactive visual graphs and detailed
logging including:

 * GDPR & [CCPA compliant](https://www.benmarshall.me/ccpa-compliance/)
 * Date & time users were referred
 * IP addresses of referred users & their [geolocation](https://benmarshall.me/html5-geolocation/)
 * Types of referring traffic: _organic, bots, referral, etc._
 * Human-readable referrers (ex. Google, Facebook, etc.)
 * Referred destination URLs & top landing pages from referrers
 * Toplists of referrers, types of referrers, popular landing pages & more
 * Helpful recommendations to block known malicious referrers

#### Automated Google Analytics Integration

Automatically track [Google Analytics campaign data](https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/1033863)
via automated URLs from referring sources — no need to manually generate campaign
URLs!

Here’s how it works:

 1. User visits the site from a referring URL like Google
 2. It retrieves & parses the referrers info
 3. Smart redirect with UTM parameters added (i.e. `utm_source`, `utm_medium` and `
    utm_campaign`)

When cookies are enabled, last known UTM values and referrer info is stored and 
can be accessed for advanced reporting, conversion tracking, etc.

## Ofte stilte spørsmål

### What is a «self-referral»?

A «self-referral» is traffic coming to the site that has been referred by the same
site. Referrer Analytics will typically ignore this type of traffic except when 
ran on certain hosts such as Pantheon.io. Learn more about «self-referrals» in [Pantheon’s documentation](https://pantheon.io/docs/pantheon_stripped).

### What aren’t my user referrers being logged?

Referrer Analytics relies on `$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER]`. Due to increasing privacy
settings, there’s a handful of edge cases where this variable isn’t available. These
include:

 * «direct» visitors (typed a URL in the browser or used a bookmark)
 * Followed a link from outside the browser (from an email or mobile app)
 * Referred from http to https, browsers hid the referrer for security
 * Browser modified to not send referrer (browser extensions)
 * Using a proxy server that removes referrer headers
 * Clicked a link that has an HTML5 [`rel=noreferrer` attribute](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/links.html#link-type-noreferrer)
 * Uses JavaScript to link to your site (`window.open` or `location.href`)
 * [`meta refresh`](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2985579/does-http-equiv-refresh-keep-referrer-info-and-metadata/24283850#24283850)
   redirects
 * Request was made by a robot

You can choose to have a URL parameter fallback if one exists such as `utm_source`
if the `$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER]` is unavailable. Note that some CMS like WordPress,
automatcially add `rel=noreferrer` to external links. You can control this from 
the plugin settings page.

### What referrer cookies are available

When plugin cookies are enabled, referrer-specific cookies are set and can be used
for advanced tracking and reporting (ex. pass UTM values to hidden form inputs).

The following cookies are available:

 * `referrer-analytics-referrer_name`
 * `referrer-analytics-referrer_type`
 * `referrer-analytics-referrer_host`
 * `referrer-analytics-referrer_scheme`
 * `referrer-analytics-referrer_url`
 * `referrer-analytics-referrer_destination`

### What Google Analytics cookies are available?

You can access [Google Analytics UTM values](https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/1033863?hl=en)
via cookies when plugin cookies are enabled. This can be useful with certain hosts
like [Pantheon](https://pantheon.io/docs/pantheon_stripped), that strip this information
on the backend. They also persist during the user’s session allowing advanced tracking
and reporting (ex. pass UTM values to hidden form inputs).

The following cookies are available:

 * `referrer-analytics-utm_source`
 * `referrer-analytics-utm_medium`
 * `referrer-analytics-utm_campaign`
 * `referrer-analytics-utm_term`
 * `referrer-analytics-utm_content`
