## Beschreibung

Linkyy tracks link clicks on your WordPress site and provides a clean admin dashboard
to analyze which links get the most clicks.

**Features:**

 * Lightweight frontend scripts (< 4KB gzipped)
 * Admin dashboard with sortable table view
 * Filter by date range, device type, and visitor type
 * Consent mode support for GDPR compliance
 * Role-based tracking exclusions
 * Automatic data retention cleanup

**Using the dashboard:**

After installing, visit Linkyy  Dashboard. The dashboard automatically shows data
for the page with the most clicks once tracking begins. Use the search box at the
top to switch to any other tracked page. If you don’t see data immediately, it just
means no visitors have clicked links yet — typically you’ll see data within minutes
of your first visitor.

 * Visual heatmap overlay with color-coded click badges on your live pages
 * Click count badges & tooltips with desktop/mobile and logged-in/out breakdowns
 * CSV / JSON export for page-level or site-wide analytics
 * Role-based overlay access controls
 * Priority email support & lifetime updates

## FAQ

### Does this slow down my site?

The two frontend scripts total just 7.2KB raw (under 4KB gzipped) and load asynchronously.
They have zero impact on page rendering.

### What links does it track?

Linkyy automatically tracks clicks on all links (`<a>` tags) across your site. No
manual setup is required. Common page builder editor classes (Elementor, Beaver 
Builder, WPBakery, Bricks, etc.) are automatically excluded to avoid tracking builder
UI clicks.

### Does it track admin users?

By default, administrators are excluded from tracking. You can configure which roles
are excluded under Linkyy > Settings.

### Is it GDPR compliant?

Linkyy does not store any personal data — it only records aggregated daily click
counts per link. It also includes configurable data retention and a manual consent
mode that lets you delay tracking until visitor consent is granted.

### How does the confidence rating work?

Each link receives a Low, Medium, or High confidence rating based on its total click
count. The thresholds are customizable in settings (defaults: 10 for Medium, 50 
for High).

### I just installed the plugin and the dashboard looks empty. Is it broken?

No — the dashboard only shows data once visitors have actually clicked links on 
your site. As soon as any click is recorded, the dashboard automatically selects
your most-clicked page and shows the data. To test, visit your site in an incognito
window (administrators are excluded from tracking by default) and click any link,
then refresh the dashboard.

### What’s in Linkyy Pro?

Linkyy Pro adds visual heatmap overlays, click count badges, CSV/JSON export, and
role-based overlay access. Learn more at [linkyy.io](https://linkyy.io).

## Änderungsprotokoll

#### 1.0.1

 * Dashboard: auto-select the most-clicked page on first load instead of showing
   a blank state
 * Dashboard: clearer empty-state messaging for new installs and date ranges with
   no data
 * Added a „Showing top page“ hint when selection is automatic
 * Dashboard: clicking the page search bar now reopens the full list and selects
   the current text, so switching pages no longer requires manually clearing the
   URL
