What permissions the user needs should be specified. GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP, INDEX, ALTER ON databasename.* TO 'username'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'password'; - Maybe there should be a default username for the super user? And is the term 'super user' helpful? Piwik administrator or something is less... techie? Finally, 'General setup' should read something like 'Administrator details' - The JavaScript Tag page on stage 8 of the install is massively overcomplicated. It's basically trying to make up for the lack of a manual. The page should simply say here's your tag, and everything else should be in a manual somewhere under Advanced Piwik-most people will never need to know. - Surely "How to install Piwik.html" has no place? A URL in README would suffice. - Referrers -> Evolution should be Referrers -> Overview and why does the graph only include direct entry? - Changing a site name doesn't seem to save - Date thing is horribly confusing... needs a beginning and an end - Are search engine spiders excluded? - The Add user UX is clunky. The table turns into a form, no warning of password constraints, no obvious submit button... you have to guess that you're meant to press Edit to save. - PDF reports is a great feature, that GA makes horrible to use. Deserves a better flag than 'PDF'. Similarly the title to that page... 'Manage Email Reports' would be more friendly. - Inconsistent use of confirmation messages (e.g. none when you create a new PDF report), exclamation marks sometimes not always. Low priority good to agree a standard to work towarads.
