Statify
Statify is not compatible with Simply Static. Its core visitor-facing functionality requires live WordPress and cannot be made static-compatible by upgrading to Simply Static Pro or Static Studio.
About this Plugin
Statify provides a straightforward and compact access to the number of site views. It is privacy-friendly as it uses neither cookies nor a third party.
Static WordPress Challenge
Statify stores visitor analytics in WordPress and therefore needs the public site to communicate with a live WordPress backend. That connection does not exist on a standalone static export. Use an external hosted analytics service such as Fathom Analytics, Pirsch Analytics, or a separately hosted Matomo installation instead.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Statify compatible with Simply Static?
No. Statify requires live, request-time WordPress functionality and cannot operate as a static site. Simply Static Pro and Static Studio do not change that compatibility verdict.
Can a paid Simply Static product make Statify compatible?
No. Neither Simply Static Pro nor Static Studio can turn Statify's session-based or request-time PHP functionality into a static-site feature. A separate headless or external service would be a different implementation.
Does Statify affect static build times?
Statify has approximately 100,000 active installs. Plugins with complex shortcodes or dynamic blocks may add minor overhead to the static generation pass.
