Admin Analytics for Community Growth Indicators

A kind of idea + feature request: FluentCommunity portal should have admin analytics for community growth indicators, meaning, overall numbers in a centralized dashboard.

Here are some of the important data points that I believe could be helpful:

  1. Total number of active members
  2. New members joined in the last 7 days, 30 days, 90 days, and year.
  3. Referral source breakdown - Traffic sources of new members (Google, YouTube, Facebook, Reddit, etc.)
  4. Member churn rate - Total number of members left in the last 7 days, 30 days, 90 days, and year.
  5. Member login frequency - daily, weekly, monthly patterns
  6. Leaderboard stats - top members (from our existing Leaderboards Module)
  7. Session duration - time spent per visit
  8. Posting velocity - posts per hour/day trend over time
  9. Peak activity hours/days - when the community is most active
  10. Mobile vs. desktop usage - platform preferences

Notes:

  1. Of course, I’m not saying all of these should be implemented immediately, because I understand these could vary in complexity. I’m just putting together a list of analytics that can be considered.
  2. I already submitted a ticket in the FluentCommunity Roadmap: https://community.wpmanageninja.com/fluentcommunity-roadmp/#/idea/1162/

Please upvote if you find this important for your community, and comment if you have more ideas for critical metrics to track. TIA! <3

FC have few analytic features already, but it should get some upgrade.

Drive Zone Wait a minute, I do not have this thing in my FC portal settings. 😲😫😭

Probably 'cause it's "beta"!?!

Drive Zone

The GSΒ I have Pro version. If you are on Free its maybe the cause.

The GS

Drive ZoneΒ I'm on a Pro version as well. Also, checked that my plugin is up-to-date. Looks like they rolled out beta for a certain percentage of users only.

The GSΒ This analytics dashboard has been there for quite a while and is available to everyone.

The GS

Ross FCAΒ Dang! I found it now! I feel stupid now. I'm gonna delete this post.

Ross FCA

The GSΒ I'd keep it! Still a good list of features that could come in the future.

The GS

Ross FCAΒ Thank you, Ross! This makes me feel better! <3

@ FC Admins: It's kinda strange, but I indeed searched terms like "analytics", "dashboard", etc. in the roadmaps, but could not find any idea submission. But after submitting mine, I did find a similar submission: https://community.wpmanageninja.com/fluentcommunity-roadmp/#/idea/1016/

Should I delete mine and add it to the comment? Kindly confirm! Thanks!

The GS

Sorry, FC folks! I was not aware of your game! πŸ˜›
I see the Analytics function is already in beta. But maybe see if you find any important input from this post regarding the data points.

FYI - I have analytics and have pro Version 2.1.02

The GS

Jamie RobeΒ Yeah, actually my bad! I found the Analytics feature when I scrolled down the left sidebar. So, it turns out I didn't know it existed there until this post.

The GSΒ It is kinda hidden way down there ;) Pretty cool that they have been building out these features in a systematic manner. This plugin rocks :)
