[DEVS] Collect anonymous plugin usage statistics

Featured Replies

Hi,

Just some thoughts:

 

Does anyone ever start thinking "I wonder, if users use function X of my plugin"? If yes, does anyone implemented some kind of statistic feature to your plugin?

 

I would add an opt-in option which sends specific things to an external server for anonymous statistic purposes. Is such feature allowed?

When something will be added or needed (For the purpose to detect failures / errors)

Made it just as opt-in not as opt-out perse 🙂

 

If you decide to send statistics about every option within your plugin. This will maybe disliked a lot. Maybe include something for error reportings / script errors / permission errors. I would like to see the benefits when you just "overwatch" the function usage.

I am fully agree with @RiDDiX

Thats for sure, as said in the initial post already.

If you want to remove a functionality, it would be good to know if its still maybe used a lot in the field.

 

But I think, leaving the user the FULL control about it (via opt-in and with explanations) is sufficient.
