There is the possibility to have a module that trace the activity of each user into the shop? Know wath page they visit or product they are looking?
There is someone able to do it, how much does it costs?
thank you

Hi Gila,
in my opinion, you're better off using website software designed for this, otherwise that's a lot of SQL being written to a database (basically every mouseclick per user). The site already counts each product view, but it's a total figure across all visitors. You could create a table that logs what you are looking for in a similar way, and update it via the index.php page.
If you have low traffic volumes, then this can be done within OC, but I wouldn't recommend it for higher traffic sites.

I actually have this partially done. It will be configurable to allow you to specify how much to log and how often to clean itself up

interesting concept to track users, I'm guessing this will only work if they have logged in/registered?

It tracks by session id.
Tracks how the user got to your site (referrer)
Tracks what pages they viewed
Converts their "ip" to "customer name" when they create an account

I would like to see some sort of mod like this, that enables you to see what items were added to the shopping cart. This way you can see what items customers are going after and how many of them are actually just not checking out after they added the item to the cart.

Q will the ip also be viewable along with customer name?

I'm very interested in this mod too. If theres a lot of info being recorded i.e. every mouse click, IP's etc etc would it be better to write the info to a seperate database altogether rather than a table.
