[Bug] Referrers 0 but Referring Sites is populated

[tebriel]

Description

I have 2 referrers in my Referring Sites section but Referrers stat at the top of the TUI is 0.

Expected Result

Referrers would have a value of 2

Background

Hi! Maybe I'm not quite understanding the data that's trying to be presented. I'm using NGINX and have set the following parsing for my log lines:

goaccess --log-format='%h %^[%d:%t %^] "%r" %s %b "%R" "%u"' --date-format='%d/%b/%Y' --time-format='%H:%M:%S' /var/log/nginx/access.log

I'm running goaccess 1.9.3

goaccess --version
GoAccess - 1.9.3.

I can see referrers in my logs ("https://forge.frodux.in/assets/js/eventsource.sharedworker.js?v=9.0.2" for example:

And I can see referrers in my output:

But the Top Level stats show Referrers 0

cc @shapr who has also experienced this with his logs (though the same log format so maybe we're both holding it wrong!)

Good question! I believe it's related to the referrers panel, which is disabled by default. You can enable it with the following option: --enable-panel=REFERRERS. Let me know if that works for you!

@allinurl ok awesome thanks! What is that supposed to be hiding? Since I can see the referrers section and the heading?

[allinurl]

One displays the full referrer (assuming --enable-panel=REFERRERS), while the other shows just the site. For example:

Are you seeing something else?

[tebriel]

@allinurl oh that makes sense, I think I just wasn't fully grokking what I was seeing. Thanks so much for the fast and thorough support!

[allinurl]

Happy to hear that it makes sense now. Don't hesitate to reopen it if needed.
