System settings

Unique Hits - setting the policy of counting unique hits.
Unique hits for All members- use counting unique hits for all sellers in the system (not taking into account their IDs). Repeated visits from the same IP for any buyer won't be counted as unique. For example: if there is a repeated visit from the IP already present in the IP database, the visit will be counted as non-unique, regardless of the account from which the visit came.
Unique hits for Each member- use counting unique hits for every member. Repeated visit from the same IP won't be counted as unique for this seller, while the visit from this IP can be counted as unique for another seller. For example: repeated visit from an IP already listed in the database may or may not be counted as unique, depending on the seller from which the previous visit came. If this visit is unique for this seller, the visit will be counted as unique.
Unique Hits Time- time interval, after which a repeated visit will be counted as unique (time of visit non-uniqueness).

GeoIP Base – selecting the type of used GeoIP database (the database according to which the user's country is defined).
Internal GeoIP database – use the internal GeoIP database
Server GeoIP database – use server GeoIP database. For using the server database the server should have the mod_geoip module installed.

Mail Settings - choosing settings for e-mail features.

Time Zone – setting the time zone for the system time. This time is used to log and display the statistics.
Apply daylight savings time conversion? – enabling or disabling the option of applying daylight saving changes to the system time.

Use Cron – using cron service to run system events (stats rotation, recounting of the traffic distribution database). The system can work with cron enabled or disabled.
Used cron for rotate the statistics – using cron for running system events. You will have to add several lines to the crontab config file (see additional documentation).
Not Used cron – disable cron usage in the system.

Referrer Statistics – referrer page statistics. Keeping referrer stats may be disabled to decrease server load or if such statistics type is not necessary.
Enable the Referrer Statistics – use statistics showing referrer pages adresses.
Use full referrer - if this option is enabled, complete referrer URL is logged, including symbols after '?' (QUERY STRING). Enabling this option is not recommended for a purpose of decreasing server load.

Hourly Statistics - displaying statistics by hours
Enable the Hourly Statistics for Sellers - allow hourly statistics for sellers. Disabling this option allows to save disk space. In such case sellers will have hourly statistics for the current day.

Registration of members - registration of new users. You can allow the users to register as buyers or sellers without administrator permission. Default settings can be specified in the Default Seller and Default Buyer sections correspondingly. If you don't want the users to register by themselves, you can disable this option.
Enable self registration to Sellers - allow registration for sellers. The option is disabled and turned off automatically if no default traffic types are specified in the Default Seller section. The registration link: http://mywts.com/cgi-bin/wtsmembers.cgi?addseller
Enable registration to Buyers- allow self registration for buyers. The registration link: http://mywts.com/cgi-bin/wtsmembers.cgi?addbuyer The option is disabled and turned off automatically if not all the requirements necessary for selling traffic are met. Necessary requirements presuppose that after registration the buyer will be able to receive the purchased traffic immediately, if he has money on his account (it is supposed that a buyer is able to deposit funds to his account using a merchant system), or has credit.
Requirements for enabling registration (Default Buyer section):
- countries and prices for sold traffic should be specified (Country & Price),
- maximum number of sold hits per day should be more than 0 (Maximum hits per day),
- at least one category should be specified for sold traffic (Traffic Categories),
- at least one trade mode should be allowed (Trade mode).
You can also allow buyers to purchase traffic on credit. For this a maximum credit amount should be specified (Maximal Credit).

E-mail administrator when new account is added? - send the letter to administrator at registration of new users.
Send confirmation e-mail to person signing up? - send the letter with the notice to the registered users.
E-mail buyer when his money has changed? - send the letter to the buyer if his money account in system has been changed.
E-mail buyer if all his money has used up? - send the letter to the buyer at the termination of money on the account.

Statistics by Country - Here you can specify countries for which detailed statistics is displayed (Raw, Uniq, Purchase, Money), which does not depend on the countries from which the purchased or sold traffic comes. This type of statistics is displayed in the administrator and user interfaces. It is not recommended to specify more than 30 countries if it is not necessary - it will allow to save disk space. It is also not recommended to specify less than 5 countries, as it will affect the reliability of statistics. You can choose several countries by left-clicking them with Ctrl pressed.
