    It’s not exactly in the Detailed Plugin Guidelines.

    The plugin team had reached out to me that the plugin was disabled because of a potential security exploit in the admin area. As part of the review they flagged that a plugin shouldn’t seek wp-load which is what the external file tracker does.

    I didn’t have a much of a choice there and needed to remove this tracker from the core plugin here on wp.org in order to get the listing reactivated.

    My plan is to release a free add-on on https://webberzone.com directly that allows users to optionally opt into this.

    Before that you’d need to use and modify the code in this gist.

    Thanks for the information.

    I’ll check if code in Gist can be used in our situation.
