“We love positive and productive discussions, as long as you agree with us, so please keep comments on the topics at hand and not on other members of the community. Thanks!”
Fixed.
—————————————————————@farmerbob1, so true! Thank you for fixing it because whenever WordPress has posted an article about new features that have come down the pike, if I post a comment that is counter to the article, my comment never got posted even though my objection was respectful. It simply “awaited moderation, indefinitely.” So, yes indeed, you must AGREE with WordPress or shut up because as ‘apetcher’ so succinctly put it, you get a “Deafening Silence from WP!” And this latest debacle really is, an “upgrade disaster!” And so far, not one word from WordPress. True to form, they are and that’s for sure, along with upgrade disaster after upgrade disaster!

As long as this is being treated as a request for changes thread I would like to request 2.
1. Visitors number on the Stats page for any given Day, Week, Month or Year.
2. The ability to see stats older than 30 Days in the Graph using an arrow on the side which moves back to earlier Days, Weeks, Months or Years depending on what Tab was selected.
3. If no arrow at least the ability to do this by editing the date in the URL.
Thanks, I don’t know why Visitors have always been given such little attention in the Stats.

Hi everyone! I’m going to do another sweep to try to find feature requests here, but I wanted to let you all know (if you hadn’t noticed yet) that the “sparkline” (mini graph) is back on the My Site menu.
-
As for why we’re taking a while to get back: I’ll just re-iterate we are watching this thread for feature requests, and working on those requests as well. As support staff, we are not here to argue with anyone, but we will continue to do our best to help make sure your needs are met within Calypso stats. Thanks again to all of those who have listed clear, specific feature requests.

Not sure if you have already logged it as a feature request, but quite a few of us would love to have the 48 hour stats traffic graphic that was on the top left of the admin bar back. I used it all the time to monitor stats and if they spiked or dropped I could investigate. It was also a one-click way to get into the stats. My traffic varies from 100 to over 1000 per hour so I can adjust my content quickly when I notice a drop.

@webmastersla I’ve noted your request to be able to access daily graphs for older stats. We haven’t offered anything like that before, but I can see how it would be handy.
You should be able to see the number of views and visitors on a given day though, or within a given week/month/year. Just mouse over any column on the graph and you’ll see a little chart appear with views / visitors / etc. If you don’t, please go ahead and open a separate thread with a “modlook” tag so we can help you troubleshoot that.

@thisbugslifedotcom I think that’s been gone from the admin bar for quite some time, but if you click on My Sites you’ll see it there. That’s the sparkline I’m referring to. Our developers were able to add that to the new code for you.

Mine disappeared about five days ago. I used it at least ten times a day so I definitely noticed when it disappeared!

@listolar sorry I missed your comment earlier! I noted your request for a drop-down site switcher. If it helps, the new stats have a friendlier URL structure, so you can change your site in the URL itself if you’d like / set up bookmarks in the meantime.
And yeah, there is maintenance with older versions, as well as compatibility issues when trying to add in new features. Thanks for the specific feedback, though. We’re working on parsing it and hopefully taking care you all. :) Happy New Year to you, too.
-
I wanted to note as well: we’ve widened the view for larger monitors so it’s a bit wider than the older stats page.
-
@supernovia,I do appreciate the widening of the new stats page. I think that it does improve its appearance considerably. This is not intended to sound ungrateful, but I still think the older version was much more elegant and attractive. That said, I thank WP for the change. Also, is there a way to bring the highest total per 48 hours on the sparkline? That was very helpful to gauging traffic without even having to check the stats.

@pellymade re: your browser crashing, this sounds more like a bug. I recommend clearing your offline data including app data. If that does not clear it up, please start a new thread and “modlook” it so we can help you troubleshoot further.
-
@ingridcc thanks, I think I understand now what you mean re: including all followers in one module.
Re: showing stats for the last day / week / month / etc. I would encourage you to try clicking around a bit in the new stats and see what you think. When you are in Days / Weeks / Months or whatever, the current week (or day or month) shows up first. It isn’t the last 7 days, but it is the current week-to-date information (which is how the old stats displayed as well). If you click on the prior week, you will see all data for that week, etc.
Re: showing a graph for lifetime stats, I’ve filed a request for that and discussed it with the developers.
The stats page used to be my main portal to get to the forums and support pages. I still haven’t figured out an equally easy way to get here, lately I’ve just been clicking to get here from within an email…
For what it’s worth, the (?) help button (which is available on any admin page — not just stats) lets you search all support content (including forum posts) or contact support. That opens a live chat if or contact form if you have upgrades and posts to the forums if you don’t.
RE: the wherefores and whys of Calypso, mobile development is one aspect, but it’s also about APIs and other technical stuff. This isn’t the thread for that, but there are lots of articles on our developer blog if you’re interested in the full story. https://developer.wordpress.com/blog/
