HitCount Plugin

[yojoe]

Firefox 2 numbers (e.g. 3.5, 3.6), Chrome 1 number, ... is doable. And maybe a toggle - with/without versions.

Assuming it can't be done for all types of browsers, then it makes no sense in wasting time on coding such functionality only for 1-2 browsers.

Code:

If the plugin uses a blacklist, it has to be checked on first hit of a visitor, as the plugin does not and will not log ip addresses (in Germany and Austria IP addresses are personal data (probably, depends on the court) and must not be logged without the consent of the visitor).

Going this route, using any analytic application in Germany is prohibited.
I'm not here to talk about law matters, just wanted to point out that many hits are coming from user(s) managing their own website.

Code:

I think it belongs to support, the editor using the pages menu doesn't normally need it.
But you can just change 'support' to 'pages' in the register_plugin call.

Been doing that already

2. instead of hiding button of currently seen statistics, just make it unclickable.

Are you sure? Currently the links only use a second line with "Operating Systems". After this change they always would.

Hmm...I got a feeling you don't get what I'm talking about.
When (at least in hc v 9.6) I jump between: Hits | Referers | User agents | Duration | Browsers | Languages, the stat I'm currently looking has its button hidden.
This makes me confused as the navigation menu changes its size, and distracts me. It leads me to forget what stats I've already seen.
I know that there's a caption on top left corner, but looking at it from usability view, it's better to have a coloured and disabled menu button of the page I'm already on.

Just mine 2 cents.
