| Feature | Setting |
|---|---|
Dislike data in charts | Enable dislike buttons under Content Types |
View tracking | Settings → General → View Tracking — pick post types (usually Posts) |
Engagement rate | Automatic when view tracking is on — likes ÷ views |
Statistics access | General → Statistics Page Access — limit by role |
Dislikes & net engagement
Pro charts and tables can filter by:
- Like · Unlike · Dislike · Undislike
Overview and Reports show positive ratio tips when dislikes climb — e.g. “Only X% positive this week — check Top content.”
View tracking & engagement rate
When view tracking is enabled for a post type:
- Each single view increments a view counter
- Overview compares daily views to daily votes
- Engagement rate highlights content that gets traffic but few likes (optimization opportunity)
Clear view data per type under Tools → Maintenance if you reset analytics.
Content intelligence [pro]
Intelligence → Content intelligence
| Report | What it tells you |
|---|---|
Publishing schedule | Best days/hours to publish based on when your audience votes |
Peak hours heatmap | Hour-by-hour activity (also on Overview) |
Category performance | Which categories get the most engagement |
Growth tips | Actionable suggestions tied to your numbers |
Use this to plan editorial calendars — not just see historical totals.
WooCommerce intelligence [pro]
When WooCommerce is active:
Intelligence → WooCommerce (appears when product or review likes exist)
- Engagement vs sales — products with likes but low orders (or the reverse)
- Product likes — if attachment/product likes are enabled
- Review likes — when reviews use WP ULike via Display Automation
Enable product/review buttons under Content Types or Display Automation first.
Countries & technology (Pro depth)
Free includes basic audience views. Pro adds richer filtering and export on intelligence reports. Combine with Reports → Engagers to reward top community members.
Date filters & comparison
Pro lets you set custom date ranges on Reports and Intelligence. Overview compares:
- This week vs last week
- Current 30 days vs previous 30 days (for views and votes)
REST API & external dashboards
Pro exposes aggregate stats via REST API (GET /stats) for headless or custom reporting — see REST API.
When numbers look wrong
- Tools → Maintenance → Cache → Clear All Cache
- Sync Counter Values for the content type
- Confirm Site Uses Caching is on under General if you use a cache plugin
