I got myself a bit of a mystery, perhaps someone can give me an hint on how to figure out what is happening. I got a Piwigo installation with 15 photos (yep, only 15) that I rarely do anything with - I installed it in july 2022. Today I got an idea how I could use it, and started to look at the settings ... and happened to click on the stats page and saw something very strange in august, september, december and january I see spikes in the number of page viewed.

I had expected that there would be a flat line with perhaps 1 - 2 visits/day once in a while. But seems that I regularly get 40-50 visits per day ... which is a huge surprise (I honestly don't know why anyone would like to visit these pages), but even more strange is that I have this spikes with 2600+ and 2700+ visits on two separate days (december and january). To me this is very strange - I rarely see this many page views on my other gallery sites (non-piwigo) where I have many thousands of photos. Does anyone have any suggestion what this could mean? I looked at the log page and I only have todays entries there and all from the same IP address ... apparently in Seattle.
