Generates Insane Database Load

5 million rows of data, really? If you want your website to slow to a crawl, and backups to take hours to generate, and restorations to take days, then this plugin may be for you. Bleh, BLOAT.

Perfect to replace UA

In view of replacing Universal Analytics with Google Analytics 4, I found Clicky really useful for those sites that don’t need complicated statistics. Setup is really easy

WordPress app did not work

I had to add the html script into footer before it started to work.
