My discourse doesn’t show live pageviews. I have to wait till the next day to see stats of of previous day. Why is it like this?

Is there any stats tracker I can use to track live pageviews of my discourse forum?

Because those states don’t change much during the day and it’s expensive to build them. You can visit /sidekiq to find the task that generates them and force it to run.

There is a company called Google that does some stuff with analytics. You can search your settings to add the tracking code that they use.
