  • 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.
