Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Podcast Analytics for OP3
Yes. The plugin hooks into WordPress's RSS feed output buffer, so it is completely independent of whichever podcast plugin you use to manage your episodes.
Yes. The feed prefix starts working as soon as you enable it — no token needed. The statistics section (dashboard widget and stats page) requires a bearer token from op3.dev to retrieve download data.
On op3.dev, your API Key is your identity, but the credential used in API calls is the bearer token associated with that key. You can generate or regenerate your bearer token at op3.dev/api/keys. Paste the bearer token (not the API Key itself) into the plugin settings.
No. The URL rewriting is a regex string replacement done in PHP memory before the feed is sent to the client. It adds no network latency.
No. OP3 never stores raw IP addresses. It stores a rotating, salted hash of the IP that cannot be reversed, ensuring listener privacy.
OP3 data is updated daily. If you just enabled the prefix, wait 24 hours for the first data to appear.
Yes, if you own all the podcasts. The bearer token is tied to your OP3 identity, not to a specific show. Each site needs its own Show UUID configured.
Yes, since v2.1.0. Mark the podcast as "Private" in the settings and set its Feed slug (the /feed/{slug}/ part of your restricted feed's URL). The plugin will route its downloads through a self-hosted tracking endpoint on your own site instead of the OP3 prefix, and its statistics will appear alongside your public podcasts. Downloads are logged without ever storing raw IP addresses (only a daily-rotating salted hash).
As of v2.6.0, private podcast downloads follow the same counting rules OP3 documents for its own public numbers (download_calculation.htm, in OP3's own open-source repository): A request asking for only 1-2 bytes in the middle of the file (some apps "poke" the server before really fetching) isn't counted as a download — except the very first 2 bytes (bytes=0-1), which many apps request as a startup check right before the real download; that one is counted, since a real request from the same listener almost always follows. Only one download is counted per listener, per episode, per day — a listener re-requesting the same episode (retries, app reopens) doesn't inflate the count. Requests from recognisable bots and crawlers are excluded from every report. This mirrors OP3's methodology, not its exact internal implementation — OP3 also filters against a large, continuously-updated list of known-abusive IP addresses accumulated from running the service since 2023, which isn't something a single WordPress site can replicate. In practice this affects a small fraction of traffic; the rules above cover the overwhelming majority of what separates a real listen from noise.
Yes, but it requires a free MaxMind GeoLite2 license key (sign up at maxmind.com/en/geolite2/signup), added in OP3 Analytics → Settings. Public podcasts get country data directly from the OP3 API and don't need this. The plugin never stores raw IP addresses — it resolves the country at the moment of the download and discards the IP immediately.
