Statistics Page
The statistics page provides an easily overviewed and almost
self-explanatory way of looking at statistics gathered by all the
functions that are enabled on the current statistics group.
Selecting statistics group
In the field labeled Group the current statistics group is
shown. If several groups are defined, the user can select one of them
in a list box. By default only one group is defined. It takes its data
from the log of the Roxen virtual server that LogView is installed on,
and the name of this group is the same as the name of the server.
If no hits have been received since the creating of the selected
statistics group, this is shown by the message "No items are logged".
This should be remedied within one hour after the site has been
accessed.
Selecting period of time
In the Period of time box the period of time for which to show
statistics can be specified. The currently selected period of time is
displayed within parentheses right next to the label on the top of the
box. The highlighted periods inside the box are the ones for which
logged data is available, and clicking one of them simply selects that
period of time. Initially only years and months are shown, but once a
month is selected the box is expanded to also contain weeks and days.
On the Statistics page, statistics can only be shown for a
single year, month, week or day. To specify a more exact time
interval, the user has to go to the Advanced page.
Selecting kind of statistics
Below the Period of time box, a number of available functions
are listed in groups. To see statistics of a certain kind the user
just has to select the corresponding function in the list. An overview
over the functions can be found in appendix A.
Selecting format
Once the user has selected the kind of statistics to show, a report is
displayed at the bottom of the page. This report is in a default
format that is dependent of the kind of statistics that was selected.
If the user is not pleased with this format, he can choose another one
in the list box in the title of the report.
