Do you need an external GUI for displaying bttn presses? Do you wish to show bttn presses on a map?
My.bt.tn has great graphs under the statistics page, but if you wish to get more reports or to show data on a 3rd party website, you can utilize the power of the free Google Analytics!
It's simple. You just need these:
1) An account for Google Analytics
2) A tracking ID for Google Analytics
Configure your bttns or bttn group to do the following action to utilize GA's "Measurement Protocol":
1) Action type = HTTP
2) Method = POST
3) URL = https://www.google-analytics.com/collect
4) Arguments in url-encoded format:
Required:
v=1
tid=[your tracking id, e.g. UA-12345678-1]
cid=[arbitrary user ID for the "visit". You can use a static number or bttn tag <ID> to distinct which bttn it was]
t=pageview
Optional arguments*:
dp=/page [tells GA what the "visited" page URL is]
geoid=[tells GA where the visit comes from. You can also utilize bttn tag <LOCATION>**]
5) Save your HTTP action!
Then sign in at google-analytics.com and open the real-time analytics. Press your bttn to see a real-time "visitor".
All done!
* You can even add geographic location or campaign id and many other properties to your bttn presses.
