Overwrite domain name
Sometimes you want to link multiple domains into one domain in your dashboard. Or you want to use a different domain than people see in their browser address bar. You can overwrite the default domain name by specifying its hostname.
With custom views you can keep websites separate and combine multiple websites into one view.
Make sure to include the our simpleanalyticscdn.com
script (note the cdn part). Include these two lines at the end of your <body>
:
<script async defer data-hostname="" src="https://scripts.simpleanalyticscdn.com/latest.js"></script>
<noscript><img src="https://queue.simpleanalyticscdn.com/noscript.gif?hostname=" alt="" referrerpolicy="no-referrer-when-downgrade" /></noscript>
You see that we added an attribute (data-hostname=""
) to the script tag and hostname
param to the img
tag. If you add your domain to it (eg example.com
) it will look like this:
<script async defer data-hostname="example.com" src="https://scripts.simpleanalyticscdn.com/latest.js"></script>
<noscript><img src="https://queue.simpleanalyticscdn.com/noscript.gif?hostname=example.com" alt="" referrerpolicy="no-referrer-when-downgrade" /></noscript>
Add overwriting domain to your dashboard
Now all the visits you collect with this script are collected under the name example.com
. Make sure you add the new used domain name (example.com
) to your dashboard.
