How to Change Loggle Settings

Loggle keeps its settings deliberately short — one screen: Revenue, Tracking & attribution, Licence, and Data. This page explains each one and what changing it does.

Looking for goals? Goals are not a setting — you create and manage them on the dashboard, in the Customers panel’s Goals tab, right where their numbers appear. The full guide is Loggle Custom Goals.

Opening settings

1. Click Loggle in your admin sidebar.
2. Click the gear icon in the top right.

Only administrators can open this screen.

Saving changes

Settings do not save as you click them. Make your changes, then click Save in the bar that appears along the bottom of the screen. If you try to leave with unsaved changes, Loggle asks before discarding them.

The Licence card is the one exception — its buttons act immediately.

Revenue

One card shows where your sales come from. WooCommerce needs no setup — a status row simply tells you whether it is active. Below it, the Freemius section stays folded away behind one row until you expand it (it opens itself once credentials are saved). It is for plugin and theme sellers who want their own product sales recorded in Loggle; everyone else can ignore that row entirely.

• Developer ID — your Freemius developer account number, from Developer Dashboard → My Profile → API Keys.
• Store ID — optional, if you have more than one store.
• API public key — starts with pk_, from the same API Keys screen.
• API secret key — your Freemius secret key.
• Tracked products — tick the products whose sales should be recorded.

Save your keys first — the card reminds you while keys are typed but not yet saved. Loggle then loads your product list so you can choose which ones to track.

Security note: your secret key is stored in your own database and is never sent back to your browser after saving. The settings screen only ever shows the last four characters, so nobody reading over your shoulder can copy it.

Only ticked products record revenue. Payments for anything else are ignored.

Not to be confused with your Loggle licence. These keys are for reading your Freemius sales into your reports. The Licence card below is about your own copy of Loggle.

Tracking & attribution

Track logged-in administrators

Off by default, which keeps your own work out of your statistics.

Turn it on temporarily if you are testing and want to see your own visits appear. Turn it off again afterwards, or your editing will inflate your page view counts.

Credit the sale to: First click / Last click

Decides which visit gets credit for a sale in the Channel, Referrer, and Campaign reports.

• First click (default) — the visit that first found you.
• Last click — the visit during which they bought.

This never changes your stored data. Loggle always records both visits for every person. The setting only decides which one the reports read, so you can switch as often as you like and switch back.

Licence

Activate or deactivate your Loggle licence key. An active licence lets the plugin update itself on this site.

These buttons apply immediately and do not need the Save bar. Full detail is in How to Activate Loggle and Your Licence.

Data

Delete all data when the plugin is uninstalled

Off by default. With it off, deleting Loggle leaves your tracking history in the database, so reinstalling brings everything back.

Turn it on only if you want a clean removal. See How to Uninstall Loggle for exactly what gets removed.

Warning: once the plugin is deleted with this setting on, the data is gone. There is no undo.

Changing settings with WP-CLI

Every setting can be read and changed from the command line.

To see all current values:

wp loggle settings

To change one:

• wp loggle settings --set=attribution=last
• wp loggle settings --set=track_admins=true
• wp loggle settings --set=delete_data_on_uninstall=true
• wp loggle settings --set=goals='[{"name":"thanks","type":"pageview","match":"/thank-you"}]'

This is handy for setting up several sites the same way, or for changing a setting when you cannot reach the admin area.

Settings that do not exist

Some things you might look for are deliberately not options:

• No sampling or data limits. Loggle records every visit, always.
• No cookieless mode. It would break the long-window attribution the plugin exists to provide.
• No IP collection toggle. IP addresses are never stored, so there is nothing to switch off.
• No data-sharing options. Nothing is ever sent anywhere.

Common problems

My change did not take effect

Check that you clicked Save in the bottom bar. If the bar is not showing, nothing has changed yet.

The Freemius section says it cannot reach the API

Recheck all three credentials for stray spaces. If they are correct, your host may be blocking outgoing connections — ask them to allow outgoing HTTPS requests.

Switching to Last click made my revenue drop in a report

That is expected, and nothing was lost. Credit moved to different channels, so individual rows change while your total revenue stays the same. Switch back to First click if you prefer.
