🐛 Bug: Singlelink does not correctly report Plausible analytics

ArsalaBangash commented 3 years ago

Expected Behavior 🧭

I expected Plausible Analytics to work with my current single-link setup for http://link.grey.software

Current Behavior 🔍

When I load up the page, an event is fired to plausible with the following request and response headers:

Request

POST /api/event HTTP/2
Host: plausible.io
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.15; rv:85.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/85.0

Steps to Reproduce 🔢

I added link.grey.software to the singlelink custom domain field

I added a masked domain redirect

I registered link.grey.software on plausible

I added the plausible script to my singlelink custom HTML tag

Acceptence Criteria for Fix ✅

\ - [ ] When I set Singlelink to point to a particular domain registered on plausible, I should receive plausible analytics ### Possible Solution 🛠️

At first, I thought the issue was happening because the plausible script wasn't in the head tag, but now I feel like the issue may be in the request headers. It's showing the origin and referer as app.singlelink.co

Implementation Details 🧰

Haven't had the time to research beyond the fact that the custom HTML wasn't in the head tag.

Additional details ℹ️

I envision the analytics tab having a field for script tags that could go in the Head. I think the solution to this issue should inform some great documentation :)

Believe this is related to issue 94 (https://github.com/Neutron-Creative/Singlelink/issues/94). Will update you closely.
