In the Friendica git repository @/addon/piwik/piwik.php@ and a CSS file for
2011-09-25 08:56:03 +00:00
styling the opt-out notice.

You have to add 4 more configuration variables for the addon:
$a->config['piwik']['baseurl'] = 'example.com/piwik/';

$a->config['piwik']['optout'] = true;
$a->config['piwik']['async'] = false;

The *baseurl* points to your Piwik installation. Use the absolute path,
2011-09-25 08:56:03 +00:00
remember trailing slashes but ignore the protocol (http/s) part of the URL.
Change the *sideid* parameter to whatever ID you want to use for tracking your
2012-01-31 11:08:46 +00:00
Friendica installation. The *optout* parameter (true|false) defines whether or
not a short notice about the utilization of Piwik will be displayed on every
2012-01-31 11:08:46 +00:00
page of your Friendica site (at the bottom of the page with some spacing to the
2011-09-25 08:56:03 +00:00
other content). Part of the note is a link that allows the visitor to set an
_opt-out_ cookie which will prevent visits from that user be tracked by piwik.
Currently the optional notice states the following:
This website is tracked using the Piwik analytics tool. If you do not want
that your visits are logged this way you can set a cookie to prevent Piwik
from tracking further visits of the site (opt-out).
The *async* parameter (true|false) defines whether or not to use asynchronous
tracking so pages load (or appear to load) faster.
