    I don’t have any problems with that plugin, I’m just curious what was the rationale for hiding hash in visitors view (that commit and others touching views/components/visitor-information.php file) because there isn’t any explanations? I know the number on the right column is doing the same thing but hash as some form of ‘User ID’ to click was more convenient and intuitive (at least for one of my clients).

    Hi @krlg,

    We recently decided to hide the hash ID in reports by default to simplify the visitor view. The hash was essentially a random number, so it didn’t add much value in most cases and sometimes caused confusion.

    If you enable the “Track Logged-In User Activity” option, the hash (as a user ID) will still be available.
    Also, in the visitor information column, you can still click on the user icon (last icon) to get the full details about each visitor
