Hi
I try integrating Pirsch with my WordPress setup. I installed the plugin, I have a dashboard and I created a client. Here’s where I cannot seem to make it work.
The Server Side guide tells me I should copy the secret key. OK.
The WordPress guide has a screenshot that doesn’t match the latest plugin UI.
- I don’t have a hostname or base URL field.
- I have a dashboard.
- I created a Client.
- But now what? The guide says copy the client ID and/or secret.
So which one should I copy where? This is where the guide is confusing to me. In the dashboard settings I don’t see a Client ID anywhere. Where do I get it? Is it the dashbaord ID? Please name it respectively in the doc and plugin or the Dashboard.
Currently I entered the dashboard ID and Client Secret into the plugin. Nothing else. The guide says it now should work and start collecting data.
It doesn’t work, nothing is tracked.
Update: Ah, I removed the Client ID. Now only using the Secret Key. Now it seems to work properly. It would be nice to see this confusion updated in the Docs → If you use Access Token, ONLY copy the Client Secret, that’s it.
On a GDPR note: If I embed your Pirsch JS from your servers on my site, what implications does this have? Do I need to use a cookie banner to block the loading of this script until “statistics” cookies are turned on? I know it’s not setting cookies but there needs to be a consent to load data from remote servers, correct? Some kind of click to accept sending your data to a third party.
Thanks in advance.
