434023 - Statistics don't show application events for Thunderbird, Seamonkey, etc...

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 424933

(addons.mozilla.org Graveyard :: Statistics, defect)

Description

[Onno Ekker [:nONoNonO UTC+1]]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.1.14) Gecko/20080404 Firefox/2.0.0.14
Build Identifier: 

My extension is Thunderbird only. Still the statistics graph have the option to show/hide Firefox events, not for Thunderbird.

My active user count suddenly dropped 25% and I couldn't figure out what caused this, until I remembered I had just upgraded to Thunderbird 2.0.0.14 myself...

Most likely this caused the drop, so showing these events in the graph would be a useful addition. Checking other extensions (e.g. Enigmail) shows the same drop over the last week.

Also allowing to show the events for the application an add-on is suitable for might be an good enhancement: Firefox events have no meaning for Thunderbird only add-ons.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Wait for a Thunderbird release . . .
2. Go to the stats page of a Thunderbird extension
3. Look at the active user count

Small addition: the option to show/hide firefox events does not exist on the Summary page, only on Downloads and Active Daily Users. So to reproduce you'll have to switch to one of those views

Sorry for the dupe, couldn't find it (searched for event, not vertical markers). Indeed same problem. I notice now that my active daily user count is getting back to normal values too, but the impact of events doesn't show in bug 424933 .
Not sure where I should comment this now: here or in bug 424933 .

(One day I'll probably file a bug for this too (am sure it'll be a dupe too :-), that it's not clear on which bug to comment after it has been marked as a duplicate. I think this is the right place, because the bug can also be unmarked as duplicate and than the comment should be here, but am always afraid that comments here, on a fixed bug, don't get through in the (resolving of the) main bug...)

Onno: please comment in the bug to which this was duped, so bug 424933, thanks!
