Long-term data graphics and top lists in v6

Feature Requests
1

In v6 I miss the long-term data graphics and top lists.
I found this very useful to evaluate the impact of new lists and domain entries.

Confirmed. Same here.
BUT:
Go to => Query Log => Advanced filtering => select time period.

The query log is good for detailed analysis.
However, if I want to know whether a newly added list has an impact on the number of blocked domains, it is a bit tedious to do this via the query logs. The long-term data graphics and top lists provided a quick overview.

I would like that feature as well, or a way to see something long term statistics at a glance.

I would like to have the Long term Top Lists from v5 as well

Me too. Was quiet sad when I heard that they removed this feature.

Agreed. It will be very useful to me.

This is great for fast troubleshooting, and I didn't even notice it's not ported to v6 till I needed it.

As a personal project, I made a dashboard for visualizing long term statistics with data from the FTL database.
Link to the GitHub repo : GitHub - davistdaniel/PiHoleLongTermStats: A dashboard to visualize DNS query data from a Pi-hole v.6 FTL database file.

I would like to see the long term graphs in v6 too!

12

I'd also like to see this re-added.

13

Here's a practical example. I was wondering why the block rate dropped from around 50% to 25%. With the long term data, it would have been easy to understand. But now I had to figure it out using the API. By the way: I replaced Windows 10 with Linux Mint on an old PC :wink:

I absolutely miss this. I use the graphs to find anomalies.

15

This would be very usefyl

I can not update to v6, if there is no long-term data!

The long-term data menu was the greatest feature for me and main reason for the use of Pi-hole. It is the best feature to find network issues in our work group.

After the first test installation of v6, I thought I've done something wrong or don't understand the new menu. It's hard to find out that there is not long-time graphics.

There is long-term access in form of a unified Query Log where you can request data way into the past. You Pi-hole will automatically substitute from the database where necessary. But yes, no graphs.

21

But why no graphs?

This is - in my opinion - one of the best Pi-hole features. Is it so difficult to use the same type of graphics as in v5?

First of all, thanks for developing pi-hole, it is awesome.
Second and less important, the long term graphs in v5 were awesome, I would like them back if that's doable.

Have a nice day!
