Minetrends
What is Minetrends?
Minetrends is the all in one solution to analyzing your Minecraft server! With Minetrends, you can login to your dashboard and instantly view graphs and statistics on your daily player count, the ratio between new to recurring players, the geolocation of your players, and much more. In addition to player information, you can also view server health stats, such as memory usage, TPS, and many more things to come!
Screenshots of the control panel?
Sure! Here are a few:
How do I start?
The registration and setup process is very easy and should take under 3 minutes to complete! Just follow the steps below, and don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.
- Register on Minetrends.com and add your server to your control panel.
- Once you have added your server, you'll receive your unique server key. Download/install the Minetrends Bukkit plugin on your server.
- Lastly, add your unique server key to the Minetrends plugin with: /minetrends key <SERVER_KEY>
What is the function of the Bukkit plugin?
Minetrends is a website and Bukkit plugin. The Bukkit plugin sends data to our servers through HTTP where it is stored and processed into nice looking graphs and stats. If you would like to know more about the Bukkit plugin, you can look at the source on GitHub or contact us if you have further questions.

@SheepServer
This should now be fixed! :)
Looks like something weird is happening at server startup using the new v2.0: https://gist.github.com/spetznack/8386dfbbb22e9e51839b8c33f43dd1d4
I also get this ingame when using the /minetrends key <SERVER KEY>: "Authentication Failed: Too many requests! Your IP is being rate limited."
Any ideas on how to fix this? I don't think anything has changed with my server host or IP since I updated, Minetrends worked fine in Spigot 1.8 with Minetrends v.1.4.1 :S

@GodsDead
A new version with a fix has been uploaded.
@GodsDead
I am getting the same errors with 1.9 Spigot.
Minetrends is broken with 1.9

We'll look into supporting older Minecraft versions. :)
For now, the BungeeCord plugin may be of help to you depending on your setup. http://minetrends.com/bungee
Could we possibly see a version compatible with minecraft 1.2.5 some time down the road for those of us running older servers? (I've got a tekkit classic server and would love to use this plugin on it, and I'm sure some other tekkit classic server owners would as well.) or perhaps a 1.6.4 version with the latest features and patches of the plugin?
Though seeing how this hasn't really been touched in almost a year I doubt there will be anything done..
@nxtguy
Looking forward to it!
@winter4w
Yes, as long as your ip forwarding settings are correct this will work with servers behind a bungee proxy.
Can you get this to work for bungee also?
@godgodgodgo
We're looking into adding this feature. :)
Does this have the ability to show individual player data such as daily/weekly/monthly online time?
@chaseoes
At the moment, no unfortunately.
Improving this soon. :)
Not possible to get a plan with more than 12 servers? :(
@nxtguy
Please add lolitsthad's suggestions.
I love them and would help a bunch.
@godgodgodgo
Fixed. Thank you.
Your link to the source needs updating by the way.
@lolitsthad
From my tests it doesn't cause any lag. It seems to be working fine for our current users as well. :)
Thanks for the suggestions!
Looks like a really cool plugin. Does it cause any noticeable lag? Every time I've tried plugins that track players' playing time and things like that, they've always increased lag.
Some suggestions for new features:
- Display average playing time of returning players vs new players. Will help to show if new players are joining and quitting very fast, or if they're sticking around for a good amount of time.
- Display the retention rate along with the returning/new players chart, where retention would be returning players divided by total players. Would be easier to view it quickly if it were already displayed for you as a line in the chart.
- Organize graph using custom date options. This way if a server owner adds a new feature at the start of each month for example, he can view the stats based on the time periods he wants to see an overview of.
- Not sure if this is possible but would be quite cool if it also watched your buycraft donations and plotted them against the other variables in the chart, this way you get an overview of new features you've added vs player retention vs donations.
