Piwik analytics plugin Plugin

This is a system plugin which adds the Piwik (http://www.piwik.org/) tracking code to your pages.

The advantage of using a system plugin instead of a module (very common but not very good if you ask me) is that a module just adds the tracking code anywhere on your page, this plugin search for the body end tag and inserts the code right before it.
Take control over your website :)

Piwik is a open source (GPL licensed) web analytics software program. It provides you with detailed reports on your website visitors: the search engines and keywords they used, the language they speak, your popular pages… and so much more.

Piwik aims to be an open source alternative to Google Analytics.

IMPORTANT:
Do NOT forget to configure the plugin before you activate it!
This is a early alpha, not guaranteed to be bug free, make sure that you have the latest release.

To be included in a later release:
Direct access to statistics in Jommla backend using Piwik widgets and API

The idea of this plugin is just plain genius, i've been using piwik ever since it's release and untill now just added the code myself to the template.

Your plugin saves me that work, i'm looking forward to the back-end plugin. Can't wait!

Thanks! :)

I've also used piwik since the beginning and it's just amazing :)
Did as well add the code manually until i changed the template of a site and missed to add the tracking code. Realized the mistake when piwik stopped the tracking and decided that the code had to be addded automatically regardless of wich template that was active.

This is a very simple script but it does what it needs to do; making it ridicules simple to add Piwik tracking code to your Joomla Site.

As a side note - Piwik is an Open Source tracking system with a great potential that runs on your own server allowing you to have a central setup running several domains from one install for easy overview.

The whole idea is to keep it as simple as possible but yet useful.

Thanks for the side note, added some info about Piwik in the plugin description.
