Split Testing and Geoip issues solved in Logaholic Web Analytics 2.6.5

We’ve just published a new release that fixes a number of issues when using the PHP Split Test features in Logaholic Self Hosted Editions.

In addition, we fixed a mysterious error that was causing problems using MaxMind’s Geo IP database in the event the MaxMind API is also installed as an Apache Module.

If you are effected by any of these issues, please upgrade your Logaholic to version 2.6.5.

Logaholic version 2.6.4 available

Logaholic Web Analytics has just been updated to version 2.6.4.

What’s new ?

Many people have asked us for a report that would summarize the key statistics of all your website profiles in one screen. We made this “Global Statistics Overview” available a few versions back, but only for the system as a whole and only for the “admin” user level.

Now, we’ve also made it available to regular logaholic user accounts. Basically any logged in user can get a quick overview comparison of all the profiles they have access to.

What’s fixed ?

Ah yes, more bug fixes: now the A/B Split test features will work properly again :}

Thanks!

Logaholic Web Analytics updated to version 2.6.3

Hi!

We’ve just updated the release on our site to version 2.6.3.

This version fixes a number of bugs found in earlier 2.6 versions:

• Deleting IP’s or files from the database now works as it should with all PHP settings
• Top countries and city reports can now be properly exported
• Segmentation filters are now properly applied to reports when exporting in CSV format.
• Improved default timezone handling to avoid warnings

If you find any more bugs, please let us know – we love fixing them

Logaholic now compatible with German Privacy Laws

We’ve just released a new version especially for customers in Germany which complies with German Privacy laws as we understand them to be.

German Law requires that web site visitors must not be recognizable individually by marketing tools (including web analytics tools). Courts have ruled that IP addresses can possibly be used for this purpose and must therefore be ‘hidden’ from the user. That means that IP numbers must be at least shortened, encoded or hidden completely.

Although we understand the debate in Germany regarding this issue is still open, we have chosen to encrypt the IP address on all levels in Logaholic, so the original number cannot be display to or retrieved by the Logaholic web analytics user. So, the original IP number is no longer stored in any permanent Logaholic database tables.

You can download this special Logaholic version for Germany here:

• Self Hosted Edition for Germany
• Service Provider Edition for Germany

If you have any questions or comments regarding this version, please leave them below. Thanks!
