    Hi, I would need your help with the following : I let the session value to 1800 sec. and I made a test with my iPad. I visit a post and refresh the page within a few seconds, and your plugin display 2 visits. Is there another setting that affect this result? (i hope i’m clear, english is not my first language).
    Thanks for your help.

    Hi,

    I see how this can be confusing at times. There is a fundamental difference between sessions and pageviews: while the latter, as the name itself says, represents the action of accessing a single page on your website, the former allows you to group multiple pageviews together, and to distinguish among pageviews generated by THE SAME USER on multiple devices within a given timeframe (think people behind a firewall connecting from a computer lab). More information can be found here:

    Best,
