Onboarding not working with self-hosted version / community edition

[markussss]

Hi there,

while I was preparing my question in here I realized something but I keept the original version below – I think the onboarding process is not including the community edition. I only tested it once, when you want to get a token in Plausible 2.1.2 it opens the dialoge for plausible.io and not the self-hosted version. I think what’s missing is one step prior that asks “Are you using the Plausible.io Cloud or Plausible community-edition (self-hosted)?” and allow to enter the self-hosted URL there, which will be used for the following dialoge to get the token.

I could work around it, but it was a bit confusing, especially as it triggered immediately in me: “oh no, not again”

I hope I am not seeing it wrong, as I only added one single new site and therefore could not test it further.

best regards
Markus

Hello,

I spent many days and even weeks troubleshooting the Plausible plugin and integration to self-hosted Plausible in the past. So this time I try to avoid that, hence I am writing right away.

Do we have similar problems again?

I just tried to setup a new sites with the latest version of the Plausible plugin.

When I try to get the token from within WordPress during the onboarding process, it opens the popup with the following link: https://plausible.io/mynewwebsite.com/settings/integrations?new_token=WordPress

But actually it should go to the self-hosted version.

We had similar issues in the past. Therefore I want to ask first, if those problems are known and/or back again?

Thanks a lot
Markus

thanks @markussss! there’s a “community edition” link in the lower right of the onboarding screen. that’s the one to use.

@plausible Thanks, then I’ll pay attention to this when I set up a new site – it only came up as I had invested a lot in the past already with those topics in here and on github, and I feared I must go back going over all the troubleshooting process again
