thus far, oxt wasn't in the set of extensions that piwik considers a "download", so those were listed as page-actions.
Changed the tracking code to 

<!-- Piwik -->
<script type="text/javascript">
  var _paq = _paq || [];
  _paq.push(['trackPageView']);
  _paq.push(['enableLinkTracking']);
  (function() {
    var u="//piwik.documentfoundation.org/";
    _paq.push(['setTrackerUrl', u+'piwik.php']);
    _paq.push(['setSiteId', 56]);
    _paq.push(['addDownloadExtensions', 'oxt']);
    var d=document, g=d.createElement('script'), s=d.getElementsByTagName('script')[0];
    g.type='text/javascript'; g.async=true; g.defer=true; g.src=u+'piwik.js'; s.parentNode.insertBefore(g,s);
  })();
</script>
<noscript><p><img src="//piwik.documentfoundation.org/piwik.php?idsite=56" style="border:0;" alt="" /></p></noscript>
<!-- End Piwik Code -->

(just replace the siteID for the templates site)

Creating nice stats for the actual usage of extensions site is a little problematic, since plone doesn't use nice URLs, but uses query-parameters like e.g in
http://extensions.libreoffice.org/extension-center?getCategories=Writer_Extension
or
http://extensions.libreoffice.org/extension-center?b_start:int=20

so it needs some compilation of parameters to ignore...

Added the non-default "SearchableText" query parameter for in-site search and added the getCategories and getCompatibility parameters as limits for the search reports, that hopefully should help to get some halfway resonable results

We can only track downloads from our own site, otherwise we always have to chase private websites from where extensions are downloadable
Better solution is to add a specific link to the download button, which needs implementation in Plone
Cloph to provide details on what to required, then re-assigning to Andreas for evaluation

Cloph to provide the CSS class and then re-assign it to Andreas for implementation

  • Priority changed from Normal to Low

Lowering priority on this, as Andreas stated most extensions are downloaded from the Plone site, which can track data, and only a few extensions are hosted externally that need tracking
