Changelog

The following changes have been made since 2.1.5:

Added

  • Ability to sort by and compare the exit_rate metric in the dashboard Exit Pages > Details report

  • Add top 3 pages into the traffic spike email

  • Two new shorthand time periods 28d and 91d available on both dashboard and in public API

  • Average scroll depth metric

  • Scroll Depth goals

  • Dashboard shows comparisons for all reports

  • UTM Medium report and API shows (gclid) and (msclkid) for paid searches when no explicit utm medium present.

  • Support for case_sensitive: false modifiers in Stats API V2 filters for case-insensitive searches.

  • Add text version to emails #4674

  • Add acquisition channels report

  • Add filter is not for goals in dashboard #4983

  • Add Segments feature

  • Support ["is", "segment", []] filter in Stats API

  • Time on page metric is now sortable in reports

  • Plausible tracker script now reports maximum scroll depth reached and time engaged with the site in an engagement event. These are reported as sd and e integer parameters to /api/event endpoint respectively. If you’re using a custom proxy for plausible script, please ensure that these parameters are being passed forward.

  • Plausible tracker script now reports the version of the script in the v parameter sent with each request.

  • Add support for creating and managing teams owning multiple sites

  • Introduce “billing” team role for users

  • Introduce “editor” role with permissions greater than “viewer” but lesser than “admin”

  • Support behavioral filters has_done and has_not_done on the Stats API to allow filtering sessions by other events that have been completed.

  • time_on_page metric is now graphable, sortable on the dashboard, and available in the Stats API and CSV and GA4 exports/imports

Removed

  • Internal stats API routes no longer support legacy dashboard filter format.

  • Dashboard no longer shows “Unique visitors” in top stats when filtering by a goal which used to count all users including ones who didn’t complete the goal. “Unique conversions” shows the number of unique visitors who completed the goal.

Changed

  • Default period for brand new sites is now today rather than last 28 days. On the next day, the default changes to last 28 days.

  • Increase decimal precision of the “Exit rate” metric from 0 to 1 (e.g. 67 -> 66.7)

  • Increase decimal precision of the “Conversion rate” metric from 1 to 2 (e.g. 16.7 -> 16.67)

  • The “Last 30 days” period is now “Last 28 days” on the dashboard and also the new default. Keyboard shortcut T still works for last 30 days.

  • Last 7d and 30d periods do not include today anymore

  • Filters appear in the search bar as ?f=is,page,/docs,/blog&f=… instead of ?filters=((is,page,(/docs,/blog)),…) for Plausible links sent on various platforms to work reliably.

  • Details modal search inputs are now case-insensitive.

  • Improved report performance in cases where site has a lot of unique pathnames

  • Plausible script now uses fetch with keepalive flag as default over XMLHttpRequest. This will ensure more reliable tracking. Reminder to use compat script variant if tracking Internet Explorer is required.

  • The old /api/health healtcheck is soft-deprecated in favour of separate /api/system/health/live and /api/system/health/ready checks

  • Changed top bar filter menu and how applied filters wrap

  • Main graph now shows revenue with relevant currency symbol when hovering a data point

  • Main graph now shows - instead of 0 for visit duration, scroll depth when hovering a data point with no visit data

  • Make Stats and Sites API keys scoped to teams they are created in

  • Remove permissions to manage sites guests and run destructive actions from team editor and guest editor roles in favour of team admin role

  • Time-on-page metric has been reworked. It now uses engagement events sent by plausible tracker script. We still use the old calculation methods for periods before the self-hosted instance was upgraded. Warnings are shown in the dashboard and API when legacy calculation methods are used.

  • Always set site and team member limits to unlimited for Community Edition

  • Stats API now supports more date_range shorthand options like 30d, 3mo.

  • Stop showing Plausible footer when viewing stats, except when viewing a public dashboard or unembedded shared link dashboard.

Fixed

  • Fix fetching favicons from DuckDuckGo when the domain includes a pathname

  • Fix visitors.csv (in dashboard CSV export) vs dashboard main graph reporting different results for visitors and visits with a time:minute interval.

  • The tracker script now sends pageviews when a page gets loaded from bfcache

  • Fix returning filter suggestions for multiple custom property values in the dashboard Filter modal

  • Fix typo on login screen

  • Fix Direct / None details modal not opening

  • Fix year over year comparisons being offset by a day for leap years

  • Breakdown modals now display correct comparison values instead of 0 after pagination

  • Fix database mismatch between event and session user_ids after rotating salts

  • /api/v2/query no longer returns a 500 when querying percentage metric without visitors

  • Fix current visitors loading when viewing a dashboard with a shared link

  • Fix Conversion Rate graph being unselectable when “Goal is …” filter is within a segment

  • Fix Channels filter input appearing when clicking Sources in filter menu or clicking an applied “Channel is…” filter

  • Fix Conversion Rate metrics column disappearing from reports when “Goal is …” filter is within a segment

  • Graph tooltip now shows year when graph has data from multiple years
