New INI config setting for Custom image to replace default 1x1 GIF image

[anonymous-matomo-user]

Hello everyone,

I would like to change the default GIF image returned by piwik but I can't figure out where to change this.

I'am using the Image tracker code: (<img src="http://127.0.0.1/piwik/piwik.php?idsite=1&rec=1" style="border:0" alt="" />

I would like to add a parameter to specify witch image I want or simply return an image that I specify the path somewhere.

A parameter can be a good solution to choose from multiple images.

Thank you.

This was proposed in #50.

Because the piwik.php request must not be cached, we should to keep the response small. A custom image would add unnecessary overhead to requests using piwik.js, as the image isn't displayed.

Please accept the transparent pixel as-is.

If you want to promote Piwik, you're welcome to use a regular img tag linked to a static resource.

Re-opening as I see Matt directed you in the forum to create this ticket.

A config file setting as Matt proposed would be the easiest to implement, e.g.,

[Tracker]
; custom image to return when tracker URL includes &image=1
; should we have a default path to the piwik logo?
custom_image = /path/to/image

This feature could useful for those using the Image Tracker, but definitely not high priority ;)
