Call back: Only the database tables
are only contain the really tracking raw data? So, when all Is this correct:
When it is so, than a global hint is missing to this info, especially when only one is used and relegate to the other (UI: Delete old visitor logs and reports → Regularly delete old raw data / Delete old aggregated report data). Mistake in the topic: The database tables |
There is a widespreaded term inconsistency in matomo on many points with the terms
log
andraw data
andarchive
.Example:
UI → Administration → System → General Settings →
linked to:

visitor log
is used. This is an another problem. It must bevisits log
. And ...UI → Dashboard → Sidebar (left) → Visitors → Visits Log
The list header Visitors is wrong. It must be Visits. Visitors is only correct by Visitor Profile.

In the
global.ini.php
there is using the category name[Deletelogs]

archive
and named witharchive_blob_[year]_[month]
, buth the table rows usedlog
and named withlog_*
.In the forum, the term
raw data
is mostly used.Question: Is there a diffenrence between
log
andraw data
andarchive
?If is not: Please use always all or global only one. (by last: big problem with the database).
