Can I have a log of how often my registered customers visit my site?

[KB]

The following will create a file called 'customer_account.log' in the 'acatalog' folder on your server:

* open 'Windows Explorer' and browse to your site folder

* locate 'ACTINIC.pm' and take a backup

* open the file in a text editor such as notepad and search for:

CAccLogin - User login

* you should see:

#######################################################
# CAccLogin - User login
# No arguments

* directly before this copy and paste the following code:

sub AccountLogFile
{
my ($pBuyer) = shift;
my $sFilename = GetPath() . "customer_account.log";
my $bDoHeader = !-e $sFilename;
#
# The log file is a comma separated file which contain the following
# items:
#
# 0 - date/time
# 1 - browser name or IP address
# 3 - customer ID
# 4 - buyer ID
# 5 - buyer name
#
open (LOGFILE, ">>" . $sFilename);
#
# If the file doesn't exist then create its header
#
if ($bDoHeader)
{
print LOGFILE "Version: $::EC_MAJOR_VERSION\nDate, Remote host, Customer ID, Buyer ID, Buyer Name\n";
}
print LOGFILE ACTINIC::GetActinicDate();
print LOGFILE ", ";
print LOGFILE (length $::ENV{REMOTE_HOST} > 0 ? $::ENV{REMOTE_HOST} : $::ENV{REMOTE_ADDR});
print LOGFILE ", ";
print LOGFILE $$pBuyer{AccountID};
print LOGFILE ", ";
print LOGFILE $$pBuyer{ID};
print LOGFILE ", ";
print LOGFILE $$pBuyer{Name};
print LOGFILE "\n";
close LOGFILE;
}

* then search for:

$::Session->SetDigest($sDigest);

* you should see:

if($bLoggingIn)
{
($Status, $sMessage) = CaccSetCheckoutFields($pBuyer, $pAccount);
if($Status != $::SUCCESS)
{
ACTINIC::ReportError($sMessage, ACTINIC::GetPath());
}
$::Session->SetDigest($sDigest);

* paste the following directly after the above:

ACTINIC::AccountLogFile($pBuyer); # Log file for the customer account.

* close and save the file and upload your site
