Django Insight User Guide

Insight keeps track of how users get to your site. It allows you to create an origin with an associated URL. If a user browses to this URL, they are redirected to the main site and their origin is stored when they register. You can browse to Insight on Django's admin interface to see stats like registration growth per origin and the percentage of users coming from a specific origin.

How to use

1. Add insight to INSTALLED_APPS.
2. Run manage.py migrate insight (requires South).
3. Create as many origins as you need via the Django admin interface (URLs are automatically generated).
4. Use the URLs on other websites to direct people to your site.
