Track Content Teaser in Blocks

Posted in: Newspaper
Post count: 150

Hello,
I have a question: I use Matomo Analytics and would need a way to track how often an article was displayed as a content teaser. In other words, the total number of impressions of the article in blocks (whether on the homepage, sidebar, landing pages, category pages, etc.). I would like to be able to inform customers who book an advertorial how often their article was displayed somewhere on the site. Can Newspaper do this natively in combination with Matomo, or is there a way to set this up? If not, could your developers program a plugin or something similar, or set this up in a sustainable way?
All the best,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
The Newspaper theme does not provide this functionality. What you’re describing is closer to advertisement/impression tracking rather than standard article tracking.
By default, Newspaper only controls how articles are displayed in blocks (latest posts, specific categories, etc.), but it does not track how often those blocks are shown.

Hi Calin,
could your developers program a plugin or something similar, or set this up in a sustainable way with matomo (paid of course)?
All the best,

Hi Daniel, I think that it is possible that the team from custom work can create something like that. If you want, you can contact our custom work services by using the email services@tagdiv.com, provide as many details for teh functionality you need, and one of my colleagues from that department will contact you.
Thank you!
