Hi @frjo !!

I publish my site romger-carton who use zen theme.

The zen theme included the analytic matomo, but I don’t know who setting it.

Can you explain more for use matomo ??

Can i use a subdomain with data base ( your page is a .php ) ??
Where I view my analytic page ?? In my site web ?? In site of matomo ??
Should I pay Matomo service ??

Sorry I have many question but the matomo manual is heavy to read, and I hope find solution in this forum.

Thanks !!

Jérome

Ps : I am hosting in netlify with my data in github

You can pay for an account on https://matomo.org/. This is the easiest and quickest solution.

In the Zen theme you have these two settings you need to set values for. When you have an account on matomo.org and have added you site you will be provided with the id and the url.

params:
  piwikSiteId:              # Matomo site id
  piwikTrackerUrl: ""       # Matomo url, schemaless and no slash on end (example.org/matomo).

(matomo used to be called piwik)

For people comfortable with setting up servers it is possible to host your own instance of matomo. I did that for a number of years.
