SRI: v12 and its hashes. I computed them from the deployed sri/v12.js; the same method reproduces the current v11 hash.
Time on page: only visible time counts, the time is sent whenever the page gets hidden, and it's rounded down to whole seconds.
Pings: new page for data-pings and sa_settings.pings.
Ignore metrics: new querykeys slug for query parameter names (names only, never values).
Unique visits: Cloudflare challenge arrivals count as unique and are sent without a referrer.
Automated events: phone clicks are collected by default, clicks are never delayed, and data-simple-event links are skipped.
Inline events: rewritten for the main script, with a note to remove the beta inline-events.js, plus opt-in data-detect-404. The page is no longer hidden or marked beta.
Settings via JavaScript: added pings and detect404.
Proxy: the nginx example caches /proxy.js and /auto-events.js for 1 hour instead of 7 days (see simpleanalytics/infrastructure#294).
GPT-6 Astra reviewed this PR. Its three findings are fixed:
Query parameter names are sent on every full page load, not only the first.
Pings still send the scroll depth when time on page is ignored.
A phone link with a title uses the title as the event name.

Testing
Prettier passes on all changed files.
Checked every claim against the v12 source (src/default.js, src/auto-events.js) and that the internal links point to existing permalinks. I didn't run the Jekyll build, because Ruby isn't installed in this workspace.
Summary by CodeRabbit
Documentation
Updated script version 12 setup and settings guidance, including visible-time pings, optional 404 detection, referrer overrides, and controls for collecting URL parameter names and values.
Expanded event-tracking guidance with phone-link clicks, inline events, and form metadata. Clarified that clicks remain uninterrupted and visitor-entered form text is not collected.
Clarified visible-time measurement, pageview behavior after Cloudflare challenges, custom pageviews, and query-string handling.
Updated script integrity, proxy cache, content security policy, and metadata guidance. Removed the manual sa_event tracking section.
Update the SRI version and hashes, time on page, ignore metrics, unique
visits and automated events for v12, rewrite the inline events page for
the main script, and add a pings page.
Fixes#61
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The documentation now describes script version 12, including installation settings, URL parameter collection, time-on-page behavior, Cloudflare challenge pageviews, and automated and inline events.
Changes: Script version 12 documentation
Layer / File(s)
Summary
Installation and script settings _docs/20_install-script/*, _docs/20_script-settings/03_overwrite-referrer.md, _docs/20_script-settings/05_allow-url-parameters.md
The installation documentation adds version 12 release notes, updates SRI hashes, and describes settings and pageview controls. It also updates referrer, CSP, allowed-parameter, and proxy-cache guidance.
The documentation describes collecting names of URL parameters with values, the exceptions for parameter values, and controls for ignoring query keys and referrer data.
Time and pageview collection _docs/33_explained/02_time-on-page.md, _docs/33_explained/05_uniques.md, _docs/20_script-settings/06_pings.md
The pages describe visible-page time, time-on-page pings, and unique pageviews after Cloudflare challenges.
Automated and inline events _docs/55_events/*
The event pages describe inline events in the main script, optional 404 detection, phone-link events, and version-specific event and metadata behavior.
simpleanalytics/docs#69 revises documentation statements on several version 12 topics also covered here.
