I have a demo server where I put samples of my apps, I send potential customers links to those apps. Is it possible to use htaccess to track visitors, without adding tracking capability to the apps themselves? The data I’m interested in are:
- date and time of page visit
- ip of visitor
- url of the page visited
- referrer
- post and get (query string) data if any
That entirely depends on your webserver, what options it provides for htaccess overrides.
For Apache, the access log logs what you are looking for
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/current/logs.html#accesslog
but is not configurable via htaccess.
