Hello,

We're pleased to announce the release of 4Analytics version 6.2.0. This is a feature and maintenance release, compatible with Joomla 3 through 6 without a compatibility plugin.

Here are the highlights:

  • Visitor locations now show Unknown and Other separately; they were all showing under Unknown until now.
  • Added support for the new utm_source parameter from Gemini apps. Gemini traffic should now be identified more accurately.
  • Aggregate data rebuilding is now done in small batches and can accommodate the largest datasets.
  • The minimum data retention duration is now 13 months to avoid the risk of breaking current-period data collection.
  • Small improvements to the Geo database download, which will now retry if it fails.
  • Data retention policy was not applied. Fixed and improved.
  • Lists of campaign media and sources are truncated at 50 characters instead of allowing ten 20-character items.
  • When installing a new version on a site using an external analytics database, a message could be displayed on the installation page (with no actual impact).

Please see this page for a full changelog. This release is immediately available both from the download area and by using the one-click Joomla! updater on your website.

Best regards,

Hello,

We're pleased to announce the release of 4Analytics version 6.1.0. This is a feature and maintenance release, compatible with Joomla 3 to 6 without a compatibility plugin.

It also accompanies updates to the AI analysis service, now using a more recent AI model and improved data processing and prompting.

Here are the highlights:

  •  AI analysis now computes and sends a short historical baseline dataset, to better identify up or down trends
  • Provide more data to the AI analysis: breakdown of views and referrer by source (search, ai, social,...). Also increase precision, duration down to the seconds and percentage down to 0.1%
  • Old signature format for emailed report links are now rejected (were replaced by new format in version 5.0.2)
  • Common extra query variables (fbclid,...) were not stripped from stored URLs if the 'Only Path' option was disabled in tracking rule parameters (not the default)
  • Possible javascript fatal error in the admin after moving a website from one host to another
  • Sometimes emailed reports can be sent even if there's no data for that period
  • Accessibility: H2 titles on printed reports, and subtitles on "half-doughnut" charts are WCAG 2.2 AA instead of AAA
  • At very low width, half-doughnut charts can overflow the page horizontally
  • At very low width, on printed reports, campaigns results table can overflow the page horizontally
  • At very low width, earth map overflows the page horizontally

Please see this page for a full changelog. This release is immediately available both from the download area and using the one-click Joomla! updater of your web site.

It introduces support for campaigns. Here are the highlights:

  • Added support for campaigns. Define campaigns with medium and source variables. Include campaign variables in URLs on social media, in newsletters, ads, QR codes, etc.

  • Now using a dialog element for most dialogs.
  • Default accent color is now purple instead of blue.
  • Fixed a small layout shift in the tab switcher when navigating to or from the "When to run" tab.
  • Accessibility: Table header cells with no visible title now have an indication of their content.
  • Accessibility: Fixed the Copy Image button in the URL & QR code tool, which did not properly announce that the image had been copied.

  • Accessibility: Fixed navigation landmark elements that did not have a unique identifier.
