Plausible DatoCMS Plugin

DatoCMS plugin that provides a link to Plausible for the current record on the sidebar

Setup

Adding the plugin from the marketplace

In your DatoCMS project, go to Settings -> Plugins -> Add new (plus sign at the bottom) -> From Marketplace -> Search for Plausible -> Install this plugin.

Adding as a private plugin

In your DatoCMS project, go to Settings -> Plugins -> Add new (plus sign at the bottom) -> Create new plugin -> Enter the following configuration:

• Plugin Name: Plausible

• Small Description: Provides sidebar links to Plausible

• Entry Point URL: https://datocms-plugin-plausible.netlify.app/

Then click on Save plugin settings

Plugin parameters

After installing the plugin, in the new settings form we must enter the parameters for our Plausible project.

• Plausible Site: The name of our site in plausible,
  ex: mysite.com

Then for each model, we'll have the following fields:

• [DATOCMS MODEL] URL Pattern: The pattern used to construct the Plausible URL for the specified model,
  ex: ?page=%2f

• [DATOCMS MODEL] Slug Field: The field of the specified model that will be used as slug,
  ex: First Name

The combination of the 3 parameters will be later used by the plugin to create a link, ex:
https://plausible.io/mysite.com?page=%2fjoakim

Then click on Save Settings

Plugin

After the setup is complete, we can navigate to content and select a record from one our models.
The plugin will show up in the sidebar.
