Update 9th September 2009: I’m too good to you, I really am. The screenshots are now out of date as I’ve just committed a new version (0.4) which contains even more reports, a cleaned up interface and a few bug fixes. Please download and try it out.
I finally got the page about Wibstats updated with some screenshots. If you’re looking for the best (in my opinion, anyway!) stats plugin for Wordpress MU – and it works with BuddyPress – head over here.
If you just can’t wait, here are some screenshots:
There you have it. A top-notch plugin for Wordpress MU and Buddypress that gives every blog in your system their own powerful statistics.

Chris, looks absolute impressive but I have a question, I suppose in time, it caches a lot of information on the server, is any way i can clean it up for all users ? (wpmu)
Thanks

Hi Chris,
I’m evaluating your plugin to use on Federal University of Santa Catarina (Brazil) for our institucional pages.
I would like to make some sugestions to improove the quality of the software:
The site admin Options page should have an item placed on Administrator menu instead of a link on top of Wibstat’s Report Page. (this will help increase the consistency of your plugin to wordpress admin backend’s layout)
I don’t think of any reason to have a different timezone for Wibstats then the one setup on blog settings. From the point of view of usability, you shouldn’t have two different places to set a very similar function. It’s better to just use Blog’s default settings. (Less is More)
Also top report navigation can be transformed in a menu item to an Statistics Menu Group or something like that.
And the last one, is to try to create initial tables automatically on plugin setup. It can be confusing for novice users to see an error message on first use of the plugin and to require a button press just to setup things initially.

If you have blogs in subdirectories and not in subdomains it won’t work.
Blog #1 = http://myblog.com/
Blog #2 = http://myblog.com/notes/
at wp-admin/index.php?page=wibstats_reports&view=siteadmin
the “choose blog” pull down options will show:
myblog.com (1)
myblog.comnotes (2)
Main blog (1) will take all the hits and sub-directory blog (2) none.

Hi Gabriel,
Thank you very much for your suggestions. I’m currently rewriting WibStats and will bear all these comments in mind.
By the way, the only reason a user should see the error message to create the database tables is if they haven’t already been created automatically. I believe this will be more robust in the new version of the plugin. Please keep an eye on the plugin page (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wibstats-statistics-for-wordpress-mu/) for details of when I release the new version.

Gav: Please update the the latest version of Wibstats, available from the Wordpress plugin repository. This will fix some of your errors.
Regarding the percentages (e.g. “In the last 28 days: 96 (+9300%)” the percentage is compared to the previous 28 day. For the last 7 days it’s compared to the previous 7 days, and for the last 24 hours it’s compared to the previous 24 hours.

Chris,
The statistics numbers are now adding up. Thanks for the update !
The google maps still sin’t showing up though (this is no big deal to me, but there’s still a big blank space where the map should be)
