Custom Component

Post by szaboendre » Thu Feb 23, 2017 9:44 pm

Greetings!

Im kinda new to Joomla! and I have to make a component to the admin site, where we can make hashed links to the site, and the track it back in the DB how many visitors the link made. For example:

mysite.com -> mysite.com/ak3j42kgidk3234 Thats a link I send in e-mail, then:

Link: Email: Visits:
mysite.com/ak3j42kgidk3234 [email protected] 14

I have spent a few hours already reading about this, but I only found simple, listing components, or JUMI written modules or articles. But i have to use custom php script on admin site. (Cuz its really easy in raw PHP).

Is there any way to work it around? It seems a bit way to complicated :/

hmm why not using the normal urls and do analytics via piwik or GA? (maybe over a Campain: https://piwik.org/docs/tracking-campaigns/)

The other way arround could be to use URL shortener Services (like: https://[spam]/). They also provide simple statistics :)

Or both :) The first provide the tracking and the seccond the URL.
