The SearchStats extension tracks user searches that do not result in a direct hit from a page. The search saves the search term to a new table called search_query. Most recent 10 searches and top 10 searches can then be viewed on the SearchStats special page.

- LocalSettings configuration of which roles to ignore on the stats page
- Add a way to export full stats to a CSV file
- LocalSettings configuration for role access to the stats page
- Better tracking of all searches such as tracking direct hits
- Pages with script errors
- Pages with broken file links
