Contacting remote sites even when not configured
-
After installing this plugin, but not configuring it (i.e. no settings entered), it’s busy doing HTTP POST requests to ghostmonitor.com on the back-end, and from the user’s web browser – even on pages that have nothing WooCommerce-related upon them.
This is from the PHP error logs (there are loads like this):
[16-Aug-2016 19:24 UTC] POST URL: https://tracking.ghostmonitor.com/v1//setcartdata
[16-Aug-2016 19:24 UTC] POST URL: https://tracking.ghostmonitor.com/v1//setcartitem
[16-Aug-2016 19:24 UTC] POST URL: https://tracking.ghostmonitor.com/v1//setcartitem
[16-Aug-2016 19:24 UTC] POST URL: https://tracking.ghostmonitor.com/v1//setconversionAnd this from the JavaScript console of visitors on a page with nothing WooCommerce-related on it:
Why does the plugin send data to ghostmonitor.com before it’s been configured or connected to any account? Why does it track on pages that have nothing WooCommerce-related on them?
