Multisite: Prevent specific sites from beeing added

  • Hey there,

    I’m using WP Piwik sitewide on my multisite (works fine) but have 1 dev-site I just clone every time when starting a new site.

    After a few clicks the page (let us call it dev.blubb.com) automatically got an ID and was added to my piwik installation.

    The problem: if I clone this site, to set up a new one, the new site got the same id and got overwritten in piwik. that no problem for the first time, but if I clone another site they got the same ID again. So is it possible to preent a single site from beeing added to piwik?

    Kind regards

    WP-Piwik does not offer this feature.

    Do you just want to avoid to get tracked on dev sites? Maybe you can just exclude yourself from tracking using a cookie: https://forum.piwik.org/read.php?2,105997

    Piwik should not overwrite the old dev page if a new dev page is added as long as both dev pages use the same URL. In fact both dev pages should be handled as the same dev page.

    Do you need seperated tracking for the dev pages? Or do you just want to avoid tracking for dev pages?

    Or do you want to “reset” the ID given for your new, cloned page (if you clone a page, the Piwik ID is cloned, too)? If you reset WP-Piwik’s settings, all ID’s will be determined again and sites with new URLs will get new IDs.

    Hey braekling,

    don’t get me wrong. I don’t want to exclude me from tracking (I saw this feature in WP Piwik and the cookie in piwik) and I also don’t need seperate tracking.

    I set up a “dev.blubb.com” if I open the dashboard, wp piwik automatically adds this domain to piwik and assign a id to this domain. So for example dev.blubb.com got the id 7

    Now I want to clone “dev.blubb.com” to “anotherpage.blubb.com” via “Multisite Cloner”. And while cloning the dev site 1:1 to “anotherpage” it also has the id 7 (since it’s stored into the database: wp-piwik_settings).

    So I need to reset the piwik settings, each time the “dev.blubb.com” site get automaticaly an ID and set all the id manually.

    I need a solution to prevent new pages from beeing added to piwik automatically or just exclude a single page by id or reset the id from jsut a single subpage without resetting the whole piwik settings.

    Kind regards
