Reading the numbers correctly
- In the Owner view you see all details. In the Public view IP addresses and referrers are hidden.
- Changing the language reloads the page in the new language. Filters such as the date range or an opened visit stay as they are.
- The menu highlights the report you are in, so you always know where you are.
- The menu button collapses the menu to give the report more room on a wide screen.
Ways to use it
