Per-Post Control
You can exclude individual posts or pages from auto-posting using the checkbox in the meta box in the post/page editor. This allows you to control which content is posted to Mastodon without disabling auto-posting globally.
Analytics & Statistics
The Analytics tab provides detailed statistics for your Mastodon posts:
- Aggregated statistics (total posts, replies, reblogs, favourites, views)
- Average statistics per post
- Individual post statistics with detailed metrics
- Boost statistics (separate metrics for boosted posts)
- Data is cached for 5 minutes to reduce API calls
