Description
The Ignored Referring URLs (ignorereferrers) option indicates which referring
URLs will be ignored by wusage for purposes of generating
the Chart Top Referring URLs (referrers) report and related
reports, such as the Chart Top Referring Sites (referringsites), Show Top Internet Search Servers (searchservers),
Show Top Internet Search Keywords (searchkeywords), and Show Top Search Keywords By Search Server Used (searchkeywordsbyserver) reports.
Referring URLs which match any of the patterns listed
for the Ignored Referring URLs (ignorereferrers) option will be
ignored only for purposes of these reports; the access is
otherwise treated normally. Each character
of the referring URL is matched against the pattern.
An * in the pattern matches any
number of characters in the referring URL.
Patterns have additional features, including support for regular expressions; for more information about
patterns, see the Patterns and Regular Expressions
section. If the Ignored Referring URLs (ignorereferrers)
option is absent, no referring URLs will be ignored.
