Discussed in #2867

Originally posted by Swiss-Mac-User April 23, 2023
The comparison vs previous period of my site are way off, e.g. when using „Current month“ view. Is this a bug in correlation with GA data import, where also native Plausible data has been tracked ?

I started tracking with Plausible last month (March) and it recorded „natively“ 550 pageviews. All the other data was imported from Google Analytics to keep the historical data.

It seems to me, that the data comparison vs last period (increase / decrease) does not take the imported data into account…

  • Current month: 2.9k pageviews
  • Last month: 4.1k pageviews
  • Comparison: should be „-34%“
  • Instead it shows as: „+450%“? (That’s the 550 pageviews natively recorded by Plausible in the last period)

Oops! This was caused by the refactoring we did for comparisons. I'm currently working on a fix :)

Prevent overwriting with_imported when comparing (#2871)
8ec3dd4 
This commit fixes a bug where comparisons would not work with imported data. This is because comparisons copies the source query and modifies the dates only, where it should reevaluate if there is imported data for the new comparison date range.

Closes #2870
