Hello,

Is it possible to configure Matomo for a new visit to be automatically created when a new browser session is created? We have a site where you need to log in to create a browser session, and we would like the entire duration of that logged in session to be counted as one visit (which we can mostly do by extending the visit timeout), and any new browser session to be another visit. For example: a user logs in to and uses the site, that's visit 1; the user closes the browser, opens it right away and logs in to the site again, that's visit 2 (for the same visitor).

It appears that it's not enough for the _pk_ses cookie to be session based for a new visit to get created. I know that new_visit=1 can be used to manually trigger a new visit, but due to the complexity of our site it may be challenging to find a way to only fire off that code only once.

Have others tried to address similar requirements?

Thanks a lot.
