QSO Statistics for Wavelog

QSO Statistics for Wavelog retrieves the QSO statistics of your own Wavelog instance and displays them anywhere on your site via shortcodes.

• Total number of QSOs and QSOs of the current year
• QSOs per mode: SSB, FM, AM, CW, RTTY, PSK, FT8, FT4, JS8 and all digital modes combined
• Multiple station IDs can be combined, totals are summed up
• Results are cached (1–1440 minutes, default 10) to keep the load on your Wavelog instance low
• Visitors never see technical error messages; administrators do

External services

This plugin connects to the Wavelog instance you configure in the settings. Wavelog is a self-hosted logbook application for amateur radio, so this is usually your own server.

• What is sent: your Wavelog API key and the configured station ID(s), as a POST request to <your Wavelog URL>/index.php/api/get_wp_stats.
• When: whenever a page with one of the shortcodes is rendered and no cached result is available (at most once per configured cache duration; after an error at most once every 2 minutes).
• What is received: aggregated QSO counts. No data about your visitors is sent.

The terms and privacy policy of the Wavelog instance are those of its operator. Information about the Wavelog software: https://github.com/wavelog/wavelog
