Simple History 5.9.0 released with new Stats & Summaries page πŸ“Š

πŸ“Š Simple History 5.9.0 is here with an exciting new Stats & Summaries page that gives you a quick overview of your site’s activity.

We’re thrilled to announce this release, which adds a completely new feature we’ve been wanting to implement for a long time: a dedicated page for stats and summaries that provides valuable insights into your logged data.

While the real-time event feed remains the core feature of Simple History, we’ve long recognized the need for a more concise summary view. The new Stats & Summaries page addresses this perfectly – especially useful for websites you only occasionally manage, where scrolling through numerous events isn’t practical.

The Stats & Summaries page provides valuable information at a glance:

  • Quick metrics including total events, active users, and content creation
  • A visual chart showing daily logged events
  • Detailed breakdowns of user activity
  • Expandable sections to view specific details (like media uploads)
The stats overview page gives you a lot of information at a glance.

Information can be expanded to view detailed information, for example a list of media uploads.
