Description

The telemetry feature gives users the option to opt-in or out of having data sent back from their local or Altis Cloud environment to Vantage via a popup. It is a sub-module in Altis core called telemetry. This is per-user, it pops up per for each person.

We had a request to allow disabling telemetry globally via composer.json, current one workaround is to hook the get_user_meta call to disable it.

How to reproduce

  • Create a new local server environment
  • Login to /wp-admin
  • You'll see the message to help us develop Altis, we would like to collect data on your usage of the software. This will help us build a better product for you. displayed

Acceptance Criteria

  • The telemetry feature can be disabled via a composer.json configuration (the popup should no longer be visible)
  • The profile telemtry opt-in option no longer appears
  • This configuration is documented in the Altis docs
