Poll: how do you access the RS forum?

[Hulk]

I'm curious how our users view the forum. PC? Mac? Tablet? Smartphone? Please take this quick poll. You may select up to 3 choices, but fewer will be more helpful. If 90% of the time you access the forum via your phone, just select that option. If you access the forum via a method that is not a poll choice, please post it below.

Does the forum software not have a lot of this?

Maybe. I'm not expert on XenForo but I am trying to learn more. I am also hoping to add Google Analytics to capture information like this. In the meantime, this is an easy way to get a quick snapshot of our users.

Sorry, did not mean to come off as a know-it-all or anything. Been ages since I ran a forum (vBulletin) but I seemed to recall there being some built-in analytics. Google Analytics is helpful, but personally speaking I block it via Pi-Hole as it is intrusive. I'll search on ZenForo and see what it can do out of the box. A simple log parser should also gather most of this too, depending on the access we have to where the site is hosted.

We may not have much log data since we just migrated to a new web host last week. Glad to have help on this sort of thing!
