Epic Tracking lets you add event tracking to any element on your WordPress site using a visual editor. Click the element you want to track, give it a name, and you’re done — events start recording immediately. No code, no Google Tag Manager, no external scripts.

Visual Click & Event Editor

Open the visual editor on any page from the WordPress admin bar. Click a button, link, form, CTA, or any other element — give it a reference name and tag — and save. That’s it. The event is live and tracking starts immediately.

Track button clicks, form submissions, link clicks, and CTA conversions
Set up events in seconds with a point-and-click interface
Organize events with custom tags for easy filtering
No coding or tag manager knowledge required

Built-in Analytics Dashboard

The plugin includes a full analytics dashboard in your WordPress admin:

Event trigger counts with unique visitor breakdowns
Page view statistics with date range filtering
Per-page detail views with referrer, device, browser, OS, and country data
Daily traffic charts and trend visualization
Sortable tables with pagination

Self-Hosted & Privacy-Friendly

All tracking data stays in your WordPress database. No data is sent to third-party analytics services. Visitors are identified using a single first-party cookie — no personal data is stored or shared.

Why Epic Tracking?

Most WordPress event tracking requires Google Tag Manager, custom JavaScript, or expensive third-party services. Epic Tracking gives you a visual editor to set up event tracking in seconds — no code, no external scripts, no data leaving your server.

External services

This plugin uses the ip-api.com geolocation service to determine visitor country based on their IP address. An HTTP request is sent to ip-api.com each time a new visitor is recorded (unless a cached result is available). The request contains only the visitor’s IP address. No other personal data is sent.

Service: ip-api.com
Data sent: visitor IP address
When: on each new visit (results are cached for 24 hours)
Terms of service: ip-api.com/docs/legal
Privacy policy: ip-api.com/docs/legal

FAQ

Does this plugin use cookies?

Epic Tracking sets a single first-party cookie (epictr_visitor_id) to identify returning visitors across page views. No personal data is stored in this cookie — it contains only a randomly generated anonymous identifier.

Does this plugin send data to external services?

All tracking data is stored in your WordPress database. The only external request is an optional IP geolocation lookup to ip-api.com to determine visitor country. No personal data is shared with this service.

Is this plugin GDPR compliant?

Epic Tracking is designed with privacy in mind. It stores no personal data and keeps all data on your own server. The only cookie used contains a random anonymous identifier — no personal information. No data is shared with third parties.

Will this slow down my site?

No. Visit logging happens via an asynchronous AJAX request after the page has fully loaded, so it does not affect page render time or Core Web Vitals.

How do I track button clicks or form submissions?

Visit any page on your site and click Edit Tracking in the WordPress admin bar. This opens the visual editor where you can click on any element to set up tracking — no code required.

Can I see which pages get the most traffic?

Yes. The dashboard shows a sortable table of all pages with total visits and unique visitors. Click any page to see a detailed breakdown including referrers, devices, browsers, OS, and countries.

How are visitors identified?

Visitors are assigned a randomly generated anonymous identifier stored in a first-party cookie. No personal data is stored.

What happens when I uninstall the plugin?

All plugin database tables and options are removed when you delete the plugin through the WordPress admin. Deactivating the plugin does not remove data.

Can I exclude certain user roles from tracking?

Yes. Go to Tracking > Settings and select which roles should be excluded from visit and event tracking.

How does bot filtering work?

The plugin maintains a list of known bot and crawler user-agent patterns. Requests matching these patterns are automatically excluded from tracking data.
