Tracking visitors of my Birdnet-Pi station #510
-
|
Hi, I wish to know the origins of my eventual visitors of my Birdnet-Pi. For that I will install Umami https://umami.is/ on my server. I need to insert code in the head section of my generated Birdnet-Pi website. Could you tell me where is the page, where to insert that code? Thank you. |

I use Matomo (formerly Piwik) for visitors tracking and have inserted the code in views.php before the end body tag. |

Not all visitors are shown. There may be browser privacy protections, virus protections or other security features enabled that prevent any responses from being sent to the Matomo script. |

Read all of it before collecting data from citizens of the EU without their consent. I am no authority and this should not be considered legal advise, but I think you'll have to allow visitors who are citizens of the EU an opportunity to opt out of you collecting their IP address. More specifically, you'll need visitors to allow that permission before you collect the data. I would be extremely careful with this data collection. |

Thank you. You are right, I will see how I can implement such a thing in the next few days. I guess it can be easily made with Matomo, let's read the documentation... |

Finally I decided not to use Matomo, I prefer not to track users, thinking about this I decided to get rid of Matomo in my Hugo blog too :-) |

You can insert any header code in
/home/pi/BirdNET-Pi/homepage/views.php. There may be a catch in that you won't be able to see if users visit specific pages, since something like /todays_detections.php actually has the HTTP request of /views.php?view=Today's Detections (so technically the same file name), but maybe that's something your software will deal with. Just a heads up, in case you come across that scenario. :)
