Changelog

Added

• Custom events can now be marked as non-interactive in events API and tracker script: events marked as non-interactive are not counted towards bounce rate
• Ability to leave team via Team Settings > Leave Team
• Stats APIv2 now supports include.trim_relative_date_range - this option allows trimming empty values after current time for day, month and year date_range values
• Properties are now included in full site exports done via Site Settings > Imports & Exports
• Google Search Console integration settings: properties can be dynamically sought
• Weekly/monthly e-mail reports now contain top goal conversions
• Newly created sites are offered a new dynamic tracking script and snippet that's specific to the site
• Old sites that go to "Review installation" flow are offered the new script and snippet, along with a migration guide from legacy snippets, legacy snippets continue to function as before
• The new tracker script allows configuring transformRequest function to change event payloads before they're sent
• The new tracker script allows configuring customProperties function hook to derive custom props for events on the fly
• The new tracker script supports tracking form submissions if enabled
• The new tracker script automatically updates to respect site domain if it's changed in "Change domain" flow
• The new tracker script automatically updates to respect the following configuration options available in "New site" flows and "Review installation" flows: whether to track outbound links, file downloads, form submissions
• The new tracker script allows overriding almost all options by changing the snippet on the website, with the function plausible.init({ ...your overrides... }) - this can be unique page-by-page
• A new @plausible-analytics/tracker ESM module is available on NPM - it has near-identical configuration API and identical tracking logic as the script and it receives bugfixes and updates concurrently with the new tracker script

Removed

Changed

• A session is now marked as a bounce if it has less than 2 pageviews and no interactive custom events
• All dropmenus on dashboard are navigable with Tab (used to be a mix between tab and arrow keys), and no two dropmenus can be open at once on the dashboard
• Special path-based events like "404" don't need event.props.path to be explicitly defined when tracking: it is set to be the same as event.pathname in event ingestion; if it is explicitly defined, it is not overridden for backwards compatibility
• Main graph no longer shows empty values after current time for day, month and year periods
• Include bounce_rate metric in Entry Pages breakdown
• Dark mode theme has been refined with darker color scheme and better visual hierarchy

Fixed

• Make clicking Compare / Disable Comparison in period picker menu close the menu
• Do not log page views for hidden pages (prerendered pages and new tabs), until pages are viewed
• Password-authenticated shared links now carry over dashboard params properly
• Realtime and hourly graphs of visit duration, views per visit no longer overcount due to long-lasting sessions, instead showing each visit when they occurred
• Fixed realtime and hourly graphs of visits overcounting
• When reporting only visitors and visits per hour, count visits in each hour they were active in
• Fixed unhandled tracker-related exceptions on link clicks within svgs
• Remove Subscription and Invoices menu from CE
• Fix email sending error "Mua.SMTPError" 503 Bad sequence of commands
