Widgets
Good to know:
One Dollar Stats positions itself as a simple analytics tool, so the Dashboard tab highlights basic data first. Widgets provide advanced analytics, allowing you to group paths, combine analytics across multiple pages or events, and compare property values for page views and events.
Analytics for Multiple Paths or Events
A widget can display combined analytics for multiple paths or events.
For example, the Visits SQL
widget tracks visits to both /sql
and /docs/sql-schema-declaration
routes together.


Group paths
You can use a wildcard (*
) to match multiple pages. For example, /blog/*
will match /blog/post
.
The analytics script also allows path combining during data collection.
Overview widgets
The Overview Widget is used to track visits to specific site paths, triggered events, or groups of paths and events.
For example:
- Monitor visits to the
/contacts
page or the total views of both/contacts
and/support
. - Track the number of clicks on the “Create” button in the dashboard menu or all button clicks within the dashboard.
To create an overview widget, select “Overview” from the widget type dropdown when creating a widget.
Example
The “Guides & Tutorials” overview widget tracks visits to all pages under the /docs/guides/*
and /docs/tutorials/*
routes.


Comparison widgets
Comparison widgets are used to compare properties of page views or event properties.
