If you're using tinylytics with uptime monitoring, you can now also show your uptime on your site 😋 Here are the docs.

Working on more cool things for monitoring... possibly end of this week.

So super happy that the tinylytics uptime monitoring worked as expected just now.

Nice simple email! And a quick overview that stuff is down. I’d love to attach that, but CMS is saying “nope” from the phone 🤣

My plans for uptime monitoring on tinylytics:

  • Allow you to embed your uptime (that's already in, but you can guess how it works until next week 😋)
  • Add more details (obviously)
  • Add public status page, similar to the stats page
  • Allow more than 5 checks per account.

Taking this slow for now.

This morning I added basic uptime monitoring to tinylytics. It'll check your website every 10 minutes and will email you if something is wrong. More to do here, but happy. This will require a subscription ✌️

And yes, I'll work on embedding your uptime just like a hit counter or kudos soon 😋

Thank you to everyone that has subscribed to the paid tier for tinylytics! I couldn't be happier ✌️❤️ Your support means so much to me, you have no idea! Having my operating costs covered so far, is amazing. Thank you!!!

If you're thinking about it, it's at an early bird special until end of July.

Just shipped the ability to see your Kudos stats in tinylytics. There's also extra navigation controls so you can quickly switch between stats and kudos – which allows for more cool things I'm working on 😋.

Also fixed an issue with public pages when not logged in... sorry about that!

Thank you everyone that is using tinylytics, and also to those who have signed up for the monthly ✌️ Passed 50,000 page hits across all sites, approaching 200 sites and passed 300 kudos interactions. Here's to the next 50k! ❤️

I've added the ability to show multiple kudos buttons on the same page using tinylytics. Documentation is here, so give it a try. Hope to have this available in a few themes soon too.

Features I am planning for tinylytics next week:

  • Multiple kudos on the same page, so you can have a list of posts with kudos buttons.
  • Uptime monitoring for paid plans (still working on details about that).
  • Better summary emails if you have multiple sites.

Thank you so incredibly much to everyone that signed up to tinylytics during the night (and for signing up for the monthly). It just crossed over 100 users, has over 170 sites and more than 45,000 page hits have been recorded to date.

You're all amazing ❤️
