Advanced settings for the Clicky WordPress plugin

The Clicky plugin has a couple of advanced settings. They mostly speak for themselves; but let’s go over them:

• Ignore admin users makes Clicky ignore the admin user when they’re logged in.
• Disable cookies makes Clicky track without using any cookies. It still tracks personal data, but it doesn’t use cookies anymore.
• Track names of commenters allows you to see the names of people who commented on your site in your Clicky Analytics.
• The outbound link pattern option allows you to track certain kinds of links as outbound links, when they’re actually internal. This is useful when you redirect, for instance, your affiliate links through a /out/ or /go/ redirect script or plugin locally.
