Initialization and Configuration

To load this plugin, add the following to the extras block in your config.php or theme settings.php:

'extras' => [
    // ...

    'matomo' => [
        'host' => 'matomo.yourprovider.com', // No trailing slash, no http(s)://
        'siteId' => 1,                        // Your Matomo Site ID
    ],

    // ...
],

host and siteId are optional and are used to build the default tracking code. If omitted, the tracking code will not be automatically added to pages and you will need to manually ensure the necessary tracking code is present in your HTML.

This can be useful if you need to adjust the tracking code for custom configurations.

The host parameter is the domain name where your Matomo instance is hosted. Exclude any 'https://' prefix or ending slash.

The siteId parameter is the numeric ID of the site you are tracking and is displayed in the tracking code installation section of Matomo as well as in the URL when viewing the property as the idSite parameter.
