Composer

Usage

Setup

After installing the plugin, there a couple of important steps to do in your Fathom Analytics settings.

  1. If not already done, add your site in Fathom Analytics
  2. Go to your site settings and get the SiteID.
  3. Still in the site settings, setup Site Sharing, either Public or Private.

Afterwards, in your site config, add your SiteID and the share password (if needed).

Example:

return [
    /* ... */
    'paulmorel.fathom-analytics' => [
        'siteId' => 'ABCDEFGH',
        'sharePassword' => 'hunter2'
    ]
    /* ... */
];

Embedding the tracking code

The tracking code is provided as a snippet, so it can be simply embedded in the <head> tag with the snippet() helper function.

If no siteId is provided, the snippet does nothing.

<head>
    <!-- ... -->
    <php snippet('fathom-analytics-embed'); ?>
    <!-- ... -->
</head>

Viewing your stats

The plugin provides a panel view that loads your site's analytics dashboard in an iframe. Simply open the menu in the panel's top bar and click on Analytics.

Options

siteId (Required)

This is the SiteID provided by Fathom Analytics at the top of your site's setting page.

sharePassword

This is the share password for your site's dashboard. This is only required if you set Site Sharing to Private.

customDomain

If you use the custom domain feature with Fathom Analytics, you can set it with this option.

Example:

'customDomain' => 'https://armadillo.example.com'

disableForRole

Allows you to disable the tracking code for logged in users with the specified roles. Expects an Array. Defaults to ['admin'].

Examples:

'disableForRole' => [
    'admin'
],
'disableForRole' => [
    'admin',
    'editor',
    'translator'
],
