this guide will show you how to add the visitor flag tracker to your profile biography. no programming skills are required.
every time a person visits your page, this tracker looks at where their request came from, logs their country code, and increments a small badge showing their flag and the group total. it is fully automatic.
your "slug" is simply the custom name assigned to your tracking profile. most operators use their radio callsign or name. for example, if your callsign is k2abc, your slug will be k2abc.
go back to the main page and fill out the fields. enter your callsign into the slug field. choose colors that match your background using standard web hex codes (like 000000 for black or ffffff for white). you can find a color picker at colorpicker.dev. when pasting the color code there is no need to input the hashtag(#).
at the bottom of the page you will find a block of text that looks something like this:
<iframe src="https://flagcounter.marin.fyi/profile/k2abc?badge=1f2937&text=f3f4f6" style="border:none; width:100%; max-width:600px; height:40px;"></iframe>copy that entire text block. then open the biography or page text editor where you want the tracker to sit, toggle the editor view to raw HTML or source code mode, paste the snippet in, and save your changes.
leaving the bg parameter completely blank will keep the widget window completely clear, allowing your profile's existing background color to show right through automatically.
