Quantely Activity

Lýsing

Quantely Activity is a lightweight, first-party plugin for WordPress that records pageviews and events.

Quantely Activity is built to capture activity reliably under imperfect conditions through server-side recording and optional client-side signals, while supporting filtering for bots, unwanted pages, IP sources and selectable WordPress logged-in roles.

Quantely Activity can be used for:

  • Monitoring site behavior
  • Reviewing traffic patterns
  • Security and bot analysis
  • Feeding downstream analytics layers

Quantely Activity is turn-key: install it, and pageviews and events should begin appearing shortly after. Raw activity data is retained for a configurable short period, helping keep the plugin lightweight and privacy-conscious.

What Quantely Activity is

Quantely Activity is a capture and monitoring layer. It is designed to record activity on your site in a structured and reliable way, with a strong focus on signal capture and data integrity.

Unlike many analytics tools, it does not focus on marketing analytics, attribution modelling, or behavioral profiling. It also does not rely solely on browser JavaScript. A server-side baseline helps ensure pageviews are still captured when scripts or beacons fail.

Hybrid capture engine

The plugin combines server-side pageview capture with optional browser-side signals.

Typical flow:

Browser request

Server pageview baseline

Browser attach (Beacon)
– engagement pings
– interaction events

Correlation via pageview identifiers

Bot classification and exclusions

Deduplication and storage

This architecture helps keep capture reliable under real-world conditions where browser-only tracking can miss signals.

Event correlation and deduplication

Quantely Activity links browser-side signals back to the pageview where they occurred.

Engagement pings, clicks, form submissions, and similar events can be correlated to their originating pageview. Built-in deduplication helps avoid duplicate records when similar signals are captured from both browser and server-side sources.

This keeps the activity stream more accurate and easier to interpret.

Fully on-site

All captured activity is stored in your own WordPress database.

Quantely Activity does not send captured activity data to external services. IP addresses are never stored in plain form, and the plugin does not perform cross-site tracking.

Privacy-aware design

The plugin is designed with privacy-conscious principles in mind:

  • No plain IP addresses stored
  • Short configurable retention window
  • Optional honoring of GPC / DNT signals
  • No external tracking services
  • Data remains on your own site

This gives site owners visibility into activity while keeping capture local and controlled.

Hooks

Quantely Activity exposes a small developer API for integrations and downstream processing.

  • qmon_hit_before_insert — Filter a normalized hit array before it is stored.
  • qmon_hit_recorded — Action fired after a hit has been stored. This is the main integration point for forwarding or persisting captured records.
  • qmon_event_normalize — Filter a normalized event payload before it is finalized.
  • qmon_event_db_dedupe_window_sec — Filter the database deduplication window for events.
  • qmon_bot_verdict — Filter the bot-classification verdict before it is finalized.

Skjámyndir

  • Live activity stream
  • Simple counters
  • Settings and privacy controls
  • Exclusions and bot handling

Uppsetning

  1. Upload the plugin ZIP via WordPress Admin Plugins Add New Upload Plugin
  2. Activate the plugin
  3. Open Quantely Activity to confirm that hits are being recorded
  4. Adjust settings if needed

SOS

What does Quantely Activity record?

It records pageviews and interaction events as individual hits.

Does it replace analytics tools?

No. Quantely Activity is a capture and monitoring layer. It is not a marketing analytics suite and does not aim to replace long-term analytics reporting.

Is JavaScript required?

No. Server-side capture records pageviews without JavaScript. Browser-side JavaScript extends capture with interaction events and engagement pings.

How long is data stored?

Raw hits are stored only for a short configurable period, typically between 6 and 48 hours. The plugin is intended for monitoring and diagnostics rather than long-term data warehousing.

Does it store IP addresses?

No. Plain IP addresses are not stored. The plugin uses derived or hashed values where needed for classification and exclusion logic.

Does it send data to external services?

No. Captured activity is stored locally in the WordPress database.

Umsagnir

I’ve been using Quantely Activity and really like how straightforward it is. It shows what’s happening on my site without loads of clutter or vague marketing stats. What I find especially useful is that it helps spot real visitor activity as well as bot noise. It feels lightweight, clear, and focused on what matters. For me, it’s one of those plugins that is simply handy to have.
