# Understand your dashboards

PageFly Analytics has six views, from the big picture down to individual section performance:

```
Overall Dashboard → Page Template → Page Detail → Metric Detail
                                         ↓
                                  Section Insights
                                  Sales Funnel
```

***

## Overall Dashboard

**What it answers:** "How are all my PageFly pages performing?"

This is your starting point. It shows aggregate performance across every PageFly page in your store.

### What you see

Up to 6 customizable metric cards at the top showing totals across all pages.

**2. Customize displayed metrics**

* Click the settings icon in the top-right of the metrics section
* Select up to 6 metrics from the available list
* Click **Apply**

**3. Your pages table**

A sortable list of all your PageFly pages with key metrics per page:

* Search by page name
* Filter by page type (Home, Product, Collection, Blog, Regular)
* Filter by publish status
* Sort by any metric column (sessions, revenue, bounce rate, etc.)
* Paginated — works smoothly even with 1,000+ pages

Click any page name to see its detailed dashboard.

## Page Template Dashboard

**What it answers:** "How is this page template performing across all assigned products/collections?"

Product and Collection pages in PageFly work as **templates** — you create one design and assign it to multiple products or collections. This dashboard shows the template's aggregate performance.

### What you see

**1. Template summary metrics**

Aggregate performance across all products/collections using this template. Click "View details" on any metric chart for a deeper breakdown.

**2. Product/collection table**

Lists each assigned product or collection with individual performance data. Sort by any metric to find your best and worst performers.

***

## Page Detail Dashboard

**What it answers:** "How is this specific page performing?"

Access by clicking any page from the Overall dashboard, or any product/collection from a template dashboard.

### What you see

**1. Metric summary charts**

Up to 6 metric cards with trend lines. Customize which metrics appear using the settings icon.

**2. Tab bar**

Switch between views:

| Tab                  | What it shows                                 | Availability   |
| -------------------- | --------------------------------------------- | -------------- |
| **Overview**         | Metric charts + product/collection breakdown  | All paid plans |
| **Section Insights** | Heatmap, scroll depth, per-section engagement | Paid plans     |
| **Sales Funnel**     | Conversion funnel visualization               | Paid plans     |

Tabs marked with a **Pro** badge require a paid plan. Free users see an upgrade prompt.

**3. Product/collection breakdown** (template pages only)

A paginated table showing performance for each assigned product or collection.

***

## Metric Detail

**What it answers:** "What's driving this specific metric? Where should I focus?"

Access by clicking **View details** on any metric chart.

### What you see

**1. Time-series chart**

A line chart showing the metric's daily trend over your selected date range. When comparison mode is on, a second line shows the previous period.

**2. Breakdown by device**

A donut chart splitting the metric by Desktop, Mobile, and Tablet. Helps identify device-specific issues — for example, if mobile bounce rate is 2x desktop, you may need to optimize your mobile layout.

**3. Breakdown by country**

A bar chart showing the metric by visitor country. Useful for understanding geographic performance — for example, high traffic from Germany but low conversion might suggest adding German payment methods.

**4. Top pages ranking** (from overall dashboard only)

A sortable table showing which pages perform best or worst for this metric. Click any page to jump to its dashboard.

## Common Features

### Date range selector

Available on every dashboard. Choose preset ranges (Last 7 days, Last 30 days, etc.) or pick custom dates.

**Tips:**

* Need at least 7 days of data for meaningful insights
* Avoid very short ranges (1-2 days) unless checking a recent change
* Use consistent ranges when comparing different pages

### Comparison mode

Toggle **Compare to previous period** to see trend changes:

* A second line appears on charts for the previous period
* Metric cards show percentage change arrows (↑ 15% or ↓ 8%)
* Helps answer: "Is this metric improving or declining?"

### CSV export

Export any dashboard's data:

1. Navigate to the dashboard you want to export
2. Click the **Export** button
3. A CSV file is sent to your registered email
4. Open in Excel, Google Sheets, or any spreadsheet tool
