@jac said in setting up Matomo:
I wonder if GA is any better? or am I getting too ahead of myself?
You’re getting ahead of yourself. Don’t forget that Matomo is fully GDPR compliant, and will take into account the privacy side of things, and (possibly) anonymises information before it is presented to you. Another reason could be the IP GEO settings, which I’ll have a look at now.

@jac yep - as I suspected
You’re using the default, so we need to change this. I’ll do this now
Understood
Thanks pal, many thanks for that

The aim is for this to portray accurate data? so going off the VPN location rather than just IP?
-
@jac Essentially, yes - if a VPN is active, this will be the chosen address as it’s what you are connecting with. Also, browsers these days have the ability to opt out of tracking, so if it does work, then the results might not be what you expected either.
Neither Matomo or GA is going to be the holy grail I’m afraid because of privacy constraints.
