What your product sliders sold, on your dashboard

What is in it

Revenue, orders, add to carts and clicks for the last 7 days, each set against the week before. Under them, bars for the revenue of each of the last 30 days. Then the best sliders and the best products of those 30 days, and a link to the whole report. Until visitors have seen a slider with analytics turned on, it says so, and shows nothing else.

What the sample above is

Every number in that picture is made up, and labelled as such. We have no real shop's figures to show you, and we would rather say so. In your dashboard the numbers come from your own shop's daily counts.

How to read a week

Seven days is short. A few orders either way will look like a big change, and a sale or a newsletter will move everything at once. Use the widget as a reason to go and look, not as a verdict on a slider. A proper comparison means changing one thing and watching for some weeks, which is what the guide walks through.

What counts as sold

The same rule as in the report: an order counts for a slider when its product was clicked or added there in the seven days before. That can credit a slider for a sale that would have happened anyway, so the figures work best for comparing sliders with each other. They do not replace your full analytics, and they are not your accounts.

Who sees it

It goes on the dashboard along with WordPress's other widgets, so you can move it or hide it in Screen Options, as with any of them. It comes with the analytics in Pro, and it stores daily counts, not visitors.
