Wordpress Plugin: Popular Posts from a Matomo instance

Use your matomo data for things like "popular posts" or "Most read posts" Be GDPR safe and do not send your user's data around the internets ( like i.e. jetpack does )

Features:

  • gives you an option page to connect to a matomo
  • by default it queries matomo for the "most popular posts of today"
  • provides dashboard widgets showing simple stats in backend
  • caches results in a transient
  • js is used to render the results

Installation

This plugin is a blueprint for developers. Its not made for typical WordPress end-user, so no simple click-install. Clone or download, move to wp-content-plugins and - important - read the code and adjust it to your needs.
