Description
Temso captures every request your WordPress origin serves over HTTP and sends it to Temso in the background. No DNS changes, no extra infrastructure — install, paste two values, done.
- Captures all server-side requests — front-end, wp-admin, REST, AJAX, login, xmlrpc. Bot classification happens in Temso.
- Non-blocking, batched delivery — adds no perceptible latency to your pages.
- No cookies, no JavaScript, no client-side tracking.
- Visitor IPs are sent over TLS and hashed in Temso before storage; raw IPs are never retained.
- WordPress Multisite supported (activate and connect per site).

Requests served from full-page cache never reach PHP and therefore can’t be captured by any origin plugin — this is expected and matches the documented CDN-cache limitation.
Privacy
This plugin sends the following per HTTP request that WordPress serves (front-end, wp-admin, REST, AJAX, login, xmlrpc) to the Temso API endpoint you configure: timestamp, request URL, HTTP method, response status, user agent, referer, and the visitor IP address. The IP address is transmitted over TLS and hashed by Temso before storage — it is never stored in raw form, and the plugin sets no cookies and adds no client-side tracking.
Installation
- Install and activate the plugin.
- Open Settings Temso.
- Paste the Ingest URL and API key from your Temso project (Crawlers Add source WordPress).
- Make sure Tracking is enabled and save.
FAQ
-
Do I need a Temso account?
-
Yes. The plugin is an interface to the Temso service — create a source under Crawlers Add source WordPress in your Temso project to get the Ingest URL and API key.
-
Why are my counts lower than my own analytics?
-
Requests served from a full-page cache (a caching plugin or a CDN) never reach PHP, so no origin plugin can see them. Temso measures cache misses; expect lower numbers than total traffic.
-
What data leaves my site?
-
Per request: timestamp, URL, HTTP method, response status, user agent, referer, and the visitor IP. The IP is sent over TLS and hashed by Temso before storage — never retained raw. No cookies, no JavaScript, no client-side tracking. See the Privacy section.
-
Does it slow down my site?
-
No. Delivery is batched and non-blocking — the visitor response is never delayed by the upload.
-
Does it work on WordPress Multisite?
-
Yes. Activate and connect it per site; each site uses its own Ingest URL and key.
