hi lemonadesoda... to address your privacy issue. If you have a private forum you do not wish us to track you can mark it in our config file and we will not log any data for that forum at all. For example some of our largest clients have confidential admin only forums which they mark as private and those stats aren't recorded. If you have a public site, all the information we gather is publicly available already.

thanks,
Jim

Been using this for a while now. Find it very useful to see what my members are viewing and how I can structure commonly searched items better. The team has been quite responsive in tweaking the product to run better and provide better information.

I'm looking forward to upcoming features as well...

With the ability to exclude forums, I went ahead and installed. Pretty cool so far, only have a small amount of data yet to play with of course so I can't see some of the functionality yet.

Will/is it possible to get some of this data on our forums? I'd like to be able to display what the most active conversations are, etc. Would make perfect forum blocks and CMS widgets.

Also, I'd like to see more integration with vBulletin as far as config options go. I have a large list of forums to exclude, etc. Would be nice if we had (through the AdminCP) a way to select what forums we WANT, or the ones we want to exclude. Whichever is smaller. Much easier to maintain that way.

hi Trek thanks for the feedback. We're definitely planning on opening up these APIs to forum admins so you can surface this data on your site in the very near future, along with "trending topics" (one of the things we do with the post content).

On the vbulletin admin CP panel integration issue... We run on some of the largest forums on the net (proboards, pbnation.com, etc..) and they're #1 concerns are performance, ease of integration and maintainability. Having the IDs manually entered in the config file allows us to not require any integration with your database or have the need to write to files on disk. When you're dealing with 400+ servers it's alot easier to tweak a file and rsync it over to all without needing to tweak the permissions as well.

thanks,
Jim

Hi Trek, Thanks for the note. Yes, post content and images are sent to Gravity Insights. If you have specific forums you do not wish to track, you can set those forum IDs in your config file and no data will be tracked or transmitted for those forums. Just to be clear, post and image content is not transmitted “anyone else.” It’s transmitted to us so that we can provide advanced features to you that wouldn’t otherwise be possible (like trending topics and the live content / media streams). We’re working on additional functionality now that will provide you a better sense of your users' interests similar to how services like Quantcast provide demographic data. We think that this type of information will be invaluable to forum operators who are trying to monetize their sites and attract new advertisers.

We appreciate your concern and thanks for the feedback.

Nice add-on!!!
Tagged. :)

Haven't heard anymore updates on this matter. Makes my site look bad.

This has effected the "body_background" and the stylevars for body_background is set correctly. I hate to lose data already collected :( I love it.

Please let me know how close you are in correcting this anomaly?
