I believe Download Tracking should be implemented server side. If outbound link tracking is enabled then you can process the URLs later for file extensions or custom mask,s such as ‘/download.php?file_id=’.

I believe I can have a prototype for outbound link tracking early in February.

Eli-D we want to add this feature on client side using automatic javascript link tracking.

(In ³⁶¹) – deleting useless zend lib
- fix redirect bug in download/outlink tracking refs #5460

[mattab]

(In ³⁶⁶) – refs #5460: removed slash at the beginning of URL. Changed table output now output to datatable instead of dataTable_actions and also includes link to outlink

[zawadzinski]

patch submitted:

changed piwik.js so you can override/define in javascript code:

piwik_install_tracker = 1 | 0
piwik_tracker_pause = (time in ms)
piwik_download_extensions = "jpg|png … ";
piwik_hosts_alias = [ “hostname1.com”, “hostname2.com”, … ];
(window.location is added to this array)

you can specify link classes:

piwik_ignore – do not track this link
piwik_download – this link is download
piwik_link – this link is outlink (even if it is from this host/host aliases)

and solved the bug with:
- relative URLs
- tracking image links
