How to Track Flipbook Views

Short answer

HB Flipbook counts views automatically while the Analytics switch on a publication's Settings tab is on. You'll see view counts on your dashboard and Publications list, and a breakdown on each publication's Analytics tab.

Where to find your views

  • Dashboard — Views over the last 30 days, your top publication and recent activity.
  • Publications list — Views, Completion and Last viewed for each flipbook.
  • Analytics tab — totals and page-by-page views for one flipbook. See using flipbook analytics.

Make sure tracking is on

Open the publication's Settings tab and check that the Analytics switch (“Track page views and visitor sessions”) is on.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to install anything?

No. View tracking is built in. You only need extra setup if you also want data in Google Analytics.

Are views from embeds counted?

Yes. Views of the embedded reader count the same as views of the direct link.

What's the difference between views and unique sessions?

Total views counts each opening. Unique sessions groups activity from one visit, so one reader reopening several times in a visit isn't counted as several people.

Can I stop tracking a flipbook?

Yes. Turn off the Analytics switch on its Settings tab.
