vBAnalytics 1.1.3 has been released. This release focuses on fixing bugs and changes to the analytics tracking nature to improve accuracy. This product is now in gold stages. A lite version will be released shortly.
Change: Link clicked data for each search is now populated with the first link clicked from a search instead of the last. In other words, if a user clicks on multiple links from a search results page the first one will be recorded instead of being overwritten by subsequent clicks.
Change: Removed unnecessary query in search_complete hook. This query did nothing and was nothing more than leftover legacy code.
Change: Default overview now includes current day instead of ending at yesterday. Reasoning is the addition of hourly tracking enables current day to have information.
Change: Overview titles & breadcrumbs made more consistent with one another.
Fix: Overview pages are now 100% W3C compliant (at least our code is).
Fix: Rare instance where a user landing on a page without a this_script value would not have their first activity tracked resulting in a their total time being extremely large.
Fix: How averages are calculated. Averages use to be calculated on a per-day (or per-hour) instance then added each time. This didn't really provide accurate averages. It's been changed to take the total time divided by the total visits for the entire time period.
Fix: Users without canview permissions were still able to view the page. Previously, only the navbar link would be hidden but direct url access would allow access.
Fix: Hardcoded text inside search_complete hook would prevent users who changed the "key_words" phrase ($vbphrase['key_words']) from having searches tracked.
The package is available for download. Thanks for your support.
