Changelog

All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file. The format is based on Keep a Changelog and this project adheres to Semantic Versioning from version 5.3.0 (not released yet).

From version 5.x.x, major version reflects which Matomo version is supported.

[5.2.17] - 2024-09-18

Changed

  • Version bump to check access for publishing plugin.

[5.2.16] - 2024-08-30

Added

  • Screaming Frog as default bot.
  • Marketplace cover

[5.2.14] - 2024-06-11

Added

  • Documentation and patch for using Log Analytics with Bot Tracker.

[5.2.12] - 2024-05-27

Added

  • ClaudeBot to default bots

[5.2.11] - 2024-04-14

Fixed

  • Adding a check if Bot Tracker config track_device_detector_bots exists, this missing check caused PHP errors. Fixes #12.

[5.2.10] - 2024-04-08

Fixed

  • Problem with translations and admin menu.

[5.2.9] - 2024-04-08

Added

  • Bot Tracker now has it own admin menu, Administration -> Bot Tracker -> Configuration.
  • Documentation is found at Administration -> Bot Tracker -> Documentation.
  • Bots not configured, but found with Matomo DeviceDetector, can now be collected with a system setting. System -> General settings -> Bot Tracker -> Enable logging of non configured bots. Report "Bot Tracker: Other bots" shows these if the setting is activated. The user agent strings of these bots could be used for adding new Bots to track.

Fixed

  • Row name in bot_type database table is changed to varchar(256), varchar(255) was a typo.

Changed

[5.2.0] - 2024-03-22

This is a big update, with many changes in code, new reports, new default bots added etc. To get the new default bots, just import default bots again, only the new ones will be added. Some preparations for 5.3.0 release added, that is not supported yet - categorisation of bots with type. Tables are added in this version, but they really do not have any purpose yet.

Changed

  • functions.php removed
  • File botlist.txt removed, hard to keep up to date and out of the scope for this plugin.
  • File CHANGELOG.md format changed to follow Markdown standard.

Database schema changes:

  • Table bot_db: botName and botKeyword could now be 256 chars long.
  • Table bot_db_stat: page could now be 256 chars long.
  • Table bot_type added.
  • Column botType added in table bot_db
  • Table bot_visits added.

Deprecated

  • Bot visits will now be tracked in table bot_visits, and use of visits in bot_db is deprecated, and will be removed in 5.3.0. This change is done so reports of bots could be based on dates, ranges etc. As the old format only allowed to show the total. Old reports will stay until 5.3.0, and are marked as deprecated in code and in UI. This change will increase database size, as every defined bot visit will get a database row for a visit, therefor the new table is kept to absolute minimum.

Added

Reports

  • Bot Tracker: Report - shows all bots visits in chosen time frame.
  • Bot Tracker: Top 10 robots - a pie chart with the ten most frequent bots in chosen time frame.
  • Bot Tracker: Extra stats - if extra stats is enabled for a bot, you get all visits by the bots in chosen time frame.

Cli Commands

  • Cli Commands added for simpler administration and automation.
    • bottracker:add-bot
    • bottracker:add-bot-type (does not have a purpose yet)
    • bottracker:add-default-bots
    • bottracker:delete-bot
    • bottracker:list-bot-types (does not have a purpose yet)
    • bottracker:list-bots
