Website Optimization 2.0.1Latest
- New: the plugin speaks Ukrainian, Russian, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Polish, Brazilian Portuguese and Japanese — the same words as your Plerdy account.
Website Optimization 2.0.0
- New: “Connect to Plerdy, free” — enter your email, Plerdy signs you in or creates an account, and the tracking code is added for you, nothing to copy.
- New: sites updated from 1.x keep tracking without a break; confirm the connection once to see your reports in WordPress.
- New: the tracking code is not added for chosen user roles (administrators and shop managers by default), in previews, page builders, feeds and AMP pages.
- New: optional cookie-consent mode (WP Consent API, “statistics”).
- New: WP Rocket, LiteSpeed Cache, Autoptimize, SiteGround Optimizer and Perfmatters no longer delay the Plerdy code.
- New: warning when the home page has more than one Plerdy tracking code.
- Sites without HTTPS can still paste the tracking code by hand.
- WooCommerce: orders now include the products (name, SKU, category, brand, price, quantity).
- WooCommerce: orders whose browser blocked Plerdy (ad blockers) are sent from your server a few minutes later, with the visitor session — never twice.
- WooCommerce: classic and block checkout; compatible with High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS).
- WooCommerce: the plugin counts paid orders and reports them to Plerdy, so you can see that every order arrived.
- New: a Plerdy page in WordPress that follows the menu of your Plerdy account: the numbers of today and yesterday in every section, compared with the same weekday last week, with the recording behind each problem.
- New: Dashboard widget with the verdict of the day.
- New: all amounts in your WooCommerce currency.
- New: orders of the day in Plerdy and how each one arrived.
- New: plan and limits on the Plerdy page; payment only in your Plerdy account.
- New: a Support window: write to us from WordPress.
- New: optional morning email “Yesterday on your site”.
- New: the plugin screens load their styles and icons from the plugin itself, only on the Plerdy pages and the Dashboard — no external fonts or scripts.
- New: the tracking code is printed with WordPress’s inline-script function, so security plugins can add their CSP nonce.
- New: in cookie-consent mode the visitor’s choice is checked in the browser, so it also works with page caching; an order of a visitor who did not allow statistics is not sent from the server either.
- New: “Send to your developer” creates a read-only link to a problem and its recordings (30 days, no Plerdy login) for you to copy and send.
- Changed: Disconnect stops tracking on the site; your data stays in your Plerdy account.
