Statistics Pro - Path aggregated in Statistics Pro 6.2

Path aggregated reports enable the site administrator to group paths freely providing an easy way to get access reports by site areas.

Requirements

The core Statistics module and its access log settings (in Access log settings page) should be enabled so path aggregated reports can be generated.

When enabling access log you should remember that access logs should not be discard for as long as you want path aggregated reports.

Recommended modules

Besides the two mandatory requirements above there are two recommended modules for path aggregated report generation:

Statistics Advanced for the bugs in core Statistics module it fixes
Browscap as with it the Statistics Advanced module can separate regular traffic from webcrawler's traffic.

Usage

To generate path aggregated reports you must first create at least one path aggregator. This can be done at the Add path aggregator page.

The list path accepts wildcards.

With at least one path aggregator created you can go to the Path aggregated report page to access the reports.

This page also accepts a period defined in the end of the URL. The supported periods are:

today - Today
yesterday - Yesterday
week_current - Current week
week_last - Last week
week_last2 - Last 2 weeks
month_current - Current month
month_last - Last month
month_last3 - Last 3 months
month_last6 - Last 6 months
quarter_current - Current quarter
quarter_last - Last quarter
year_current - Current year
year_last - Last year
custom_days - Custom number of days
For custom_days you can send an extra numeric parameter setting the desired number of days.

Examples:

To get a report covering the current month:

admin/reports/statspro/path_aggregated/month_current

To get a report covering the last 3 months:

admin/reports/statspro/path_aggregated/month_last3

To get a report covering the last 20 days:

admin/reports/statspro/path_aggregated/custom_days/20

Observations

It should be noted that the report generation can be a heavy process specially if there are many accesses to be analysed, either because of a long report period or because of much recorded traffic.
