Question

Hello, I am wondering how to instrument statistics on a page level.

There are different types of users in my twiki apps. I want to be able to capture some kind of statistics on interested (certain) topics access. e.g. for a certain topic, who accessed it, when, action, etc.

If you answer a question - or have a question you asked answered by someone - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status is in a drop-down list below the edit box.

The WebStatistics page shows the number of views per month of the most popular topics.

There is no ready made report for a particula topic, but you can ssh into your TWiki server and examine the TWiki log files, such as twiki/data/log200804.txt. Use grep to see activity on a particular topic.

You could write a plugin, such as a PageStatisticsPlugin that expands a %PAGESTATISTICS{}% variable with page statistics.
