Add Antlytics to Django

Prerequisites

An Antlytics account (sign up free)
Your tracking ID from Settings → Tracking Snippet in your Antlytics dashboard

Install the snippet

Open your base template — typically templates/base.html — and paste the snippet inside <head>. Place it outside any {% block %} so it is not accidentally overridden by child templates:

<!-- templates/base.html -->
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
  <meta charset="utf-8" />
  <title>{% block title %}My Site{% endblock %}</title>

  {% block head %}{% endblock %}

  <script
  defer
  src="https://www.antlytics.com/tracker.js"
  data-tracking-id="YOUR-SITE-ID"
  data-api-host="https://www.antlytics.com"
></script>
</head>
<body>
  {% block content %}{% endblock %}
</body>
</html>

Note: Replace YOUR-SITE-ID with the tracking ID from your Antlytics dashboard.

Make sure your TEMPLATES setting in settings.py points to the directory containing base.html.

Verify installation

Visit your site in a browser.
Open your Antlytics dashboard → Overview.
Your visit should appear within a few seconds.

If data does not appear after a few minutes, check the troubleshooting guide.

Optional: First-party proxy

To avoid ad blockers, set up a first-party proxy on your own domain.
