Statify counting admin visits after theme change

    I changed my theme today and had to make a lot of adjustments so I had to visit some pages many times. I was logged in as admin all the time.

    When I was finished I realised that the stats reflected all my visits. I know that this was different before and I know for sure that no additional code has been hooked into the old theme. Any idea what went wrong?

    The only major change I’ve made in the last days, apart from changing the theme, was to add the Statify Blacklist plugin to get rid of referrer spam.

    Statify shouldn’t do that, because of this line:
    https://github.com/pluginkollektiv/statify/blob/7082e23c71e3d95dff3ee9e3ecb0703d4262b18a/inc/statify_frontend.class.php#L118

    Do you use the statify_skip_tracking filter? Have you tried to deactivate the “Statify Blacklist” plugin to see if this plugin is the reason?

    All the best,
    Torsten

    As I do not use any filter, that is certainly not the problem. I’ve now disabled the Statify Blacklist plugin and will have a close eye on the stats. Thanks for the moment.

    It was the plugin’s fault, mea culpa!
    Using the filter hook and returning false made Statify leaving the filter chain even if blacklist is disabled or not applied. In fact it’s not only admin visits, but every built-in filter has been skipped. Changed that behaviour in Blacklist 1.3.1 release a few minutes ago.

    I could confirm the bug with different WP instances, hence I can’t imagine any correlation with the change of theme. Maybe just noticed by closer observation afterwards.
