Announcements

I will be releasing a separate Joomla 4 version for each of my extensions and I'm aiming to have some ready in the next few weeks but this will also depend on any bugs that arise in the Joomla core code as more users staring using it.

CoalaWeb Traffic is a Joomla extension designed to keep track of the visitors to your site. You can choose to display the modules and let visitors see and be amazed by your traffic or unpublish the module and view your website statistics in the Admin area.

When installing all the parts of the system will be installed at the same time making installing, upgrading and uninstalling a breeze.

Plugins

System - CW Traffic Count

This plugin is crucial to functionality of the system it quietly counts the visits to your site and then records them in the database. It allows you to count the traffic to your site even with the module unpublished and also ensures all traffic is record regardless of the part of the site that they visit.

This plugin also takes care of blocking visitors from being counted based on your setting in the CoalaWeb Traffic component. [Figure-3]

System - CW Traffic Clean

This plugin carries out the automatic database clean up but only if you have it turned on in the Component Options. It will run in the background keeping the current data but delete out the old entries and then add them to a running total. It is recommended to turn this feature on. [Figure-4]

System - CW Traffic Online

This plugin will check who is online, record it to a cookie and to the database and lastly supply the information to the Traffic modules so they can display the currently online visitors. [Figure-5]

System - Gears

CoalaWeb Gears is a system plugin that is included with all CoalaWeb extensions. Think of it as a Swiss army knife full of great little tools that you can use with or without a CoalaWeb extension. [Figure 6]
