matomo, not grouping the similar pages by itself #12580

~piwik~ matomo, not grouping the similar pages by itself. It groups some of the pages based on the title, but doesn't group most of the pages.

Example:
If I have 3 pages named

1. "A Dashboard (ABC awesome)" 
2. "A Dashboard (ABC Good)"
3. "A Dashboard (ABC better)"

Then it groups them under a hierarchy like this:

  A Dashboard (ABC
               awesome)
               Good)
               better)

Which is perfect.

But in most of the cases, it doesn't group them. For exa, I have 3 pages like this:

1. My Area 1234
2. My Area 4567
3. My Area 6789

In this case, all above 3 pages, are not grouped. Ideally it should be like this:

+My Area
        1234
         4567
         6789

But all above pages are shown as a different entries like this:

My Area 1234
My Area 4567
My Area 6789

I think this is definetely a bug with it, which need to be fixed. Please let me know if you need any further information on this.

Hi, by default Matomo only splits on /.
You can find more about this feature here:
https://matomo.org/faq/how-to/faq_62/
and in https://github.com/matomo-org/matomo/issues/2956

You can set the delimiter in the config.ini.php with action_title_category_delimiter=

I'm not sure if there is a way to automatically group on similarity and if this wouldn't be quite inconvenient in some cases.

Thanks for the response.
I am wondering, how it grouped in first case. Can you please explain. ( I can attach an image, if my question is not clear)
