Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Stats4U

By default right below your theme's footer: behind the element that the theme marks as its site footer (<footer>, role="contentinfo", site-footer, the footer part of a block theme, an Elementor footer ...). Tested with Twenty Twenty-Four and -Five, Astra, GeneratePress, Hello Elementor, Kadence, Neve, OceanWP and themes whose page body is a flex or grid container. If a theme has no recognisable footer, the counter goes to the end of the page. You can also choose "inside the footer", "below the content of posts and pages", a fixed corner, or place it yourself with the block or the shortcode.

Write <?php echo do_shortcode( '[stats4u]' ); ?> where it should appear - in footer.php, for example. A shortcode typed into a PHP file as plain text is not processed. Set Where to show it to "nowhere automatically", otherwise the counter appears twice. The settings page shows the same line under Placement.

Up to version 1.4.0 the plugin used the image alone. It was lighter, but your statistics got almost nothing from it: a browser sends only your site's

about where the visitor came from or how long they stayed. The script sends the page and the referrer with every count and adds time on page, scroll depth and the "online now" figure.

The script sets no cookie and stores nothing on the device; what it sends is listed under External services. Which duties apply to your site is a question for your jurisdiction; a description for your privacy policy is at https://www.stats4u.net/privacy-embed. If your site uses a consent tool anyway, choose it under Consent and the counter waits for the visitor's consent. My consent tool is not in the list. If it supports the WP Consent API, choose that. If it blocks scripts that carry a certain attribute, choose "another tool" and enter what it wants on such a script, for example type="text/plain" data-category="statistics". Some tools ask me to create a service first. Tools that decide per service (Usercentrics, Klaro!, Real Cookie Banner, Axeptio, consented.eu, Civic) need Stats4U as a service in their own settings. Create it in the statistics category and enter its name under Category or service - the settings page tells you which name it expects. Until the service exists, those tools never release the counter.

With a consent tool, visitors who decline are not counted - so yes, the numbers will be lower than without one. The same happens with optimisation plugins that hold back JavaScript until the first click or scroll: visitors

My theme changes pages without a full reload. Then the counter counts the first page only, unless the theme lets the Stats4U script run again for each new page - the way the navigation of stats4u.net itself does: before swapping the page, fire the event s4u:seiteweg on document (it closes the time on the old page), and afterwards insert the counter's script tag again. With a consent tool, window.stats4uAn() fills new placeholders after the swap; it exists only once the visitor agreed.

Create or change it on stats4u.net and paste the new code - or use "Create a free counter on stats4u.net": when you come back, the settings page shows the new design at once, and Save Changes puts it on your site. The plugin keeps your placement and consent settings; only the counter changes. Pasting just a number keeps the design and changes only the counter.

Your server does not. Your browser loads the preview image on the settings page and in the block editor, marked so that it is not counted.

Then the counter is missing from your page, and nothing else. The script loads asynchronously and does not hold up your page.
