Long-term Statistics

Sorry, but i'm not quite sure what the issue might be. I'll try to look into it.

Can you do an update on this? I feel like Popedia is way more active again.

Consider it done. I'll also make a new table for this year's desktop, mobile and tablet usage when I get the chance. 

Speaking of Popedia's activity, this hasn't ever really been said by anyone (including myself), but I feel as though most of Popedia's activity is thanks to you. You do a lot behind the scenes to try and encourage your friends to participate on the forum, as well as spreading the word about Popedia in general, so I just want to say how much I really appreciate it.   

You should update it for September 2019.

Have included October's statistics.

Sorry everyone, I have been a bit forgetful when it comes to updating the forum statistics.  They are all up-to-date now!

I have also added a new category. There are now statistics showing the breakdown of visitors to the site based on their gender. These statistics are sourced from Google Analytics, which is also what I use to compile the statistics for the percentage of forum users per device (e.g tablet, mobile). In terms of how the statistics are calculated, the stats aren't based on each individual user visiting the forum. Rather, they're based on the frequency in which someone of a particular demographic accesses the forum. The more often that person accesses Popedia, the higher the percentage will be.

Say, for example, if a male goes onto the site five times within a single day. Google Analytics will treat that data as being '5 new users', rather than recognising that it is the same person who has visited the forum five times. That is why the percentage is never 100% for the "Total percentage of users" visiting the forum. With every visit that is made, it categories it as a "new user". Also, the data is made up of both members of the forum and people who visit Popedia, but don't have accounts. I hope that all makes sense.
