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. Why active installs don’t tell the whole story →
WP PlugIndex currently records Simple Matomo Tracking Code version 1.1.1 as active, updated 1mo ago and tested up to WordPress 7.1.
Overview
About this plugin
This is a unofficial, basic WordPress plugin for the Matomo web analytics software platform.
It adds the Matomo javascript code into every page of your website, so you don’t have to code PHP to add it to your templates.
It is based quite heavily on the (no more supported) Piwik Analytics WordPress plugin which itself is based on the (no more available) Google Analytics wordpress plugin by Joost de Valk.
The following options are supported:
matomo hostname
matomo path
site ID
option to control download tracking
option to exclude the admin user (probably you)
Please note, this plugin requires a self-contained Matomo installation somewhere under your control. It does not include Matomo itself.
