The Plausible Dashboard requires the Plausible integration to be connected. If Plausible is not enabled, this page will display a message asking you to connect it.
The Plausible Dashboard embeds your Plausible Analytics dashboard directly inside Outpost, giving you site traffic data without leaving your publication’s admin panel.
For more detailed analytics — including custom goals, funnels, and detailed breakdowns — log into your Plausible Analytics account directly. The embedded dashboard in Outpost shows the most common metrics, but Plausible’s full interface offers additional depth.

  • Unique visitors — How many distinct people visited your site
  • Total pageviews — Total pages loaded across all visitors
  • Bounce rate — Percentage of visitors who left after viewing one page
  • Visit duration — Average time visitors spend on your site
  • Top pages — Your most-visited content
  • Traffic sources — Where your visitors are coming from (search, social, referrals, direct)
  • Locations — Geographic breakdown of your audience
  • Devices — Browser, OS, and screen size distribution

​
Time period controls

The embedded dashboard includes Plausible’s standard time-period selector. You can view traffic for:
  • Today
  • Last 7 days
  • Last 30 days
  • Last 6 months
  • Last 12 months
  • Custom date range

​
FAQ

Yes. Outpost embeds your Plausible dashboard — it does not generate traffic analytics on its own. You need an active Plausible Analytics account with your site configured.
Plausible offers a paid service with a free trial. Pricing is based on monthly pageviews. Visit plausible.io for current pricing.
Your Plausible integration is not yet configured. Go to the Plausible integration page to connect your account.
The embedded dashboard only supports Plausible. However, you can install any analytics script directly on your Ghost site independently of Outpost.
