## Beschrijving

This is a unofficial, basic WordPress plugin for the Matomo web analytics software
platform.
 It adds the Matomo javascript code into every page of your website, so
you don’t have to code PHP to add it to your templates.

It is based quite heavily on the (no more supported) Piwik Analytics WordPress plugin
which itself is based on the (no more available) Google Analytics wordpress plugin
by Joost de Valk.

The following options are supported:

 * matomo hostname
 * matomo path
 * site ID
 * option to control download tracking
 * option to exclude the admin user (probably you)

Please note, this plugin requires a self-contained Matomo installation somewhere
under your control. It does not include Matomo itself.

See also [The Matomo Website](https://matomo.org/).

## Installatie

 1. Install and activate the plugin as you normally would.
     (You can find more details
    and instructions [here](https://wordpress.org/support/article/managing-plugins/).)
 2. Visit the “Simple Matomo Tracking Code” page in the “Settings” section and adjust
    the parameters.
     Don’t forget to click “Update Settings” when you’re done.

## FAQ

### The Matomo Web Analytics javascript code does not show up.

 1. Make sure your theme has a call to wp_footer() in the footer.php file
 2. Make sure you’re not logged in as admin.

I like this, minimal code: pure and effective.Does not support multisite.
