Is there a way to view the full links of the websites that are linking to yours? I’d like to see the page that my link is on.
AI 生成的摘要
In a discussion titled ‘Traffic Sources links’ under the Feature category, giraffesyo asks if it’s possible to view the full URLs of websites referring traffic to their Discourse site, noting that the admin dashboard only shows root domains—not specific pages like forum threads or Facebook posts. Mittineague confirms the limitation, and giraffesyo clarifies they want to see complete URLs for deeper insights. Mittineague acknowledges the request and notes that while Discourse doesn’t currently offer this, it’s a feasible capability. tobiaseigen and jeffwidman suggest using Google Analytics as a workaround, which provides detailed referral URL data. However, jeffwidman also implies that building this into Discourse core would be preferable rather than relying on external tools. The conversation highlights a user desire for more granular traffic source data directly within Discourse’s admin interface.

Anyone have any clues?
Other than what you can see at
Admin->Dashboard

Yeah from there I can’t see the actual URLs to the sites. So for instance if it’s a forum I can’t see the thread page they came from or if it’s facebook theres no way of knowing what the post on facebook was. Sure if it’s a blog site it’s not that hard to find but for these bigger sites it can be impossible.
I see. So instead of only the root domain, the actual complete URL
Sorry, but I have no idea if this capability is possible and will have to defer to the Discourse team.

You could set up google analytics, which would give you that information. But it’s true that it would be nifty to have that kind of info in topic summaries and in the admin dashboard.
This is easily handled with Google Analytics.
Asking Discourse core team to build this just sucks up time that could be spent on user-facing features.
