If I go to /admin there’s a bar graph toward the top of the page labeled “Legacy Consolidated Pageviews.”
“Legacy?” I think. Checking the info tip, I see that it’s superseded by the ‘Site traffic’ report.
Okay cool. Let’s go look at that.
Except it’s not in the list of reports.
Checking here I see a 2024 announcement of the report which tells me I should be seeing it on the admin dashboard . (I don’t.) There’s also an “understanding” post which tells me I can find it at discourse.example.com/admin/reports/site_traffic.
Except that when I go there, what I’m redirected to is “Legacy Consolidated Pageviews.” Again.
So… what gives?

i wonder if it is because you are hosted? i have it on my self-hosted site on reports page and at /admin/reports/site_traffic
edit: nevermind, i found it on a hosted site too.

There is a hidden site setting use_legacy_pageviews. I wonder if that is enabled on your forum.
Lilly could enable that on her forum to check. My hosted forum shows the site traffic report just like hers

can confirm that the hidden setting SiteSetting.use_legacy_pageviews is enabled on your site. when i set it to true on my site, the Site Traffic Report disappears and there are different ones:

It’s a hidden site setting, so you won’t find it in the interface.
Hosted customers need to contact the team.
