## Beskriuwing

This plugin lets you integrate your existing Matomo On-Premise into WordPress. If
you don’t already have a working Matomo (either [On-Premise](https://matomo.org/matomo-on-premise/)
or [Matomo Cloud](https://matomo.org/hosting/)), use the [Matomo Analytics](https://wordpress.org/plugins/matomo/)
plugin instead.

Matomo, formerly called Piwik, is an self-hosted open-source tool to analyze your
pages. It needs a tracking code to be included in the pages that should be monitored.
Also campaigns can be created by using specific parameters in the URL.

Therefore in this plugin, you can configure the URL where Matomo is hosted and the
site ID for tracking your WordPress page. You can find it in the tracking code. 
You only need to fill in these both information. The rest of the tracking code is
standartized and automatically inserted in the page. Also, you can set a campaign
name (pk_campaign) and source (pk_source) which will be adds to the links in your
RSS feed. This helps you to analyze how many users enter your pages by using your
RSS feed.
 If you like to, there is an additional field to deactivate the usage 
of cookies by Matomo.

 * Here you can see the settings page of ‘Include Matomo’. You can find it under‘
   Settings’ -> ‘Include Matomo’.
 * [[
 * If you provide a Matomo URL and site ID this code is injected to your Wordpress
   page..

## Ynstallaasje

This section describes how to install the plugin and get it working.

 1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/include-matomo` directory, 
    or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress.
 3. Use the ‘Settings’ -> ‘Include Matomo’ screen to configure the plugin. Look in 
    the description to understand the configuration options.
 4. (Make your instructions match the desired user flow for activating and installing
    your plugin. Include any steps that might be needed for explanatory purposes)

## FAQ

### Why can’t I see page views in the Matomo backend?

Take a look at the source code of your WordPress page and make sure that the Matomo
code is actually included. It will only be injected if the URL to the Matomo installation
AND the page ID are set.

If it is injected you also should check if the page ID is set correctly.

Easy installation and configuration. Works flawlessly with recent WordPress- and
Matomo-Versions (Dec. 2021) I didn’t check the code.
