Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

Overview

About this plugin

Devlin Geo Pulse helps merchants understand current storefront activity in real time while keeping the data model intentionally minimal and privacy-first.

What it does:

  • Anonymous storefront heartbeat tracking
  • Active visitor count in WooCommerce admin
  • Ranked country pulse view for active visitors
  • Compact device-mix snapshot for the live heartbeat window
  • Top country and new-visitors-last-minute metrics
  • WordPress Dashboard widget for at-a-glance live metrics without leaving the main Dashboard
  • Admin toolbar live visitor indicator visible from every admin page
  • WooCommerce dashboard page under WooCommerce > Live Geo Pulse
  • WooCommerce settings tab under WooCommerce > Settings > Devlin Geo Pulse
  • Privacy-first storage using short-lived active presence only
  • WooCommerce settings for enabling tracking and adjusting heartbeat cadence

Privacy guardrails:

  • No raw IP addresses are stored
  • No personally identifiable information is stored
  • No persistent visitor history is retained
  • Presence data expires automatically when heartbeats stop

How it works:

  • A lightweight frontend script sends anonymous heartbeat requests from the storefront.
  • The plugin derives a coarse country code and device bucket from request metadata.
  • Active presence is stored only in short-lived cache/transient state.
  • The WooCommerce admin dashboard polls a summary endpoint for live updates.

The admin dashboard can optionally expose a preview traffic control that creates short-lived sample visitors so the UI can be previewed without opening multiple storefront tabs.

The merchant dashboard uses native WordPress and WooCommerce admin patterns so the interface feels familiar inside a standard store management workflow.
