Metis (VG Wort integration)
This module automatically adds a tracking pixel to your website's content for royalty reporting purposes. It allows you to manage tracking codes and ensures that each piece of content is associated with a unique code for accurate reporting.
The Metis module automates the inclusion of the so called "Metis pixel" (Zählmarke) from the German association VG Wort. The pixel is rendered as a 1x1 image and allows VG Wort to count visits to node content for royalty reporting.
Metis stands for "Reporting System for Texts on Websites" (Meldesystem für Texte auf Internetseiten).
