Re: Hit logging in Cake
agreed, just use google analytics. the reports that get generated from it are second to none about 90% of people have javascript enabled, so just round your number up a little bit I work for a medium sized website that gets thousands of hits a day and we exclusively use google for hit tracking On Nov 19, 1:58 pm, Adam Royle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Maybe you should consider one of the many javascript-stats solutions, > such as Google Analytics or Mint. > > Unless you need to access that data inside your cakephp app, or you > need to track something in particular, using an external service is a > better way to go - that way bots don't enter into your stats. > > Adam > > On Nov 19, 1:50 am, Dave J <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > You also need to take into consideration if you'll be using view > > caching or not.

Re: Hit logging in Cake
hi you might want to checkout this component. http://bakery.cakephp.org/articles/view/tracking-navigation-history-of-a-user It tracks what pages are loaded and save them in a session. But you can easily modify for your need regards On Nov 18, 7:58 pm, Adam Royle <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Maybe you should consider one of the many javascript-stats solutions, > such as Google Analytics or Mint. > > Unless you need to access that data inside your cakephp app, or you > need to track something in particular, using an external service is a > better way to go - that way bots don't enter into your stats. > > Adam > > On Nov 19, 1:50 am, Dave J <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > You also need to take into consideration if you'll be using view > > caching or not.

Re: Hit logging in Cake
Maybe you should consider one of the many javascript-stats solutions, such as Google Analytics or Mint. Unless you need to access that data inside your cakephp app, or you need to track something in particular, using an external service is a better way to go - that way bots don't enter into your stats.

Re: Hit logging in Cake
You also need to take into consideration if you'll be using view caching or not. As far as I know, once a view has been cached, beforeRender() won't be called on anymore. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Cake PHP" group.

Re: Hit logging in Cake
In beforeRender (app_controller) maybe. You could make a component that loads your Log model and insert a record in before render. hope this helps On Nov 18, 5:44 am, Rick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Hi all. > > I have a simple (I hope) question.

Hit logging in Cake
Hi all. I have a simple (I hope) question. I want to add some hit logging to my site. I created a 'Log' table, controller, view etc, but the question is how do I assure that a new Log record is created and saved on every page load. I was thinking about putting it at the end of the default.thtml layout file, but I can't seem to figure out how to do that. I could do some raw SQL INSERTS, but I was hoping to find out the proper Cake way to do do this... Thanks.
