Title: Piwik running on thefpl.us
Post by: Lemon on October 25, 2016, 03:24:02 pm
SHORT VERSION
thefpl.us is running both Google monster cockytics and Piwik for a month while I try to figure out if they both show dramatically different numbers.

LONG VERSION

Man, I wish you'd titled it the URL that it links to instead.

Also, I just checked, and my particular adblocker (uBlock Origin) has default rules that block Piwik too.  Or, at least, anything installed in a /piwik/ folder.  That particular rule comes from my subscription to the EasyPrivacy list, which is apparently available for Adblock Plus (https://forums.lanik.us/) too and is enabled by default on uBlock Origin.

Specifically, these are the rules:
/piwik-$domain=~github.com|~piwik.org
/piwik.$script,domain=~piwik.org
/piwik.php
/piwik/*$domain=~github.com|~piwik.org
/piwik1.
/piwik2.js
/piwik_
/piwikapi.js
/piwikC_
/piwikTracker.

I feel this fucked up link is some sort of cosmic revenge for you changing my name when I tried to bypass this wordfilter.

Interesting. Okay, so to catch you, going to need to change the folder and the file name.

There was a very brief moment where the word filter started to irk me and then I learned that it messes with URLs too and it's back to amazing

From some morning Googling, there's some indication that changing the filenames of piwik.js and piwik.php would solve the problem, is that worth a try? I don't understand the syntax for the rule set above, but I feel like I'd expect to see /piwik/* if there was a directory-wide block.

/piwik/*$domain=~github.com|~piwik.org is the directory wide block. As long as it doesn't have the word `piwik` in the path or name, you should be golden.

Yeah, it does block anything in a piwik directory--that rule just excludes it on Github and Piwik's own site.

Boots just changed around the file structure, can you check again?

Just checked. It's not blocking /monster cockytics/pwk.js, so looks like it's good now.
