How do I see what readers click in my Simplebooklet?

The Navbars and Actions report shows what readers click in your Simplebooklet, from buttons in your navigation bar to links and hotspots on your pages. Find it in Reports > Attention > Navbars and Actions, and download the Navbar Clicks chart as a .md file to analyze in ChatGPT or Claude.


Available on Pro plans and above. See Choosing Your Simplebooklet Plan.


What does the Navbars and Actions report show?


The report has two parts.


Navbar Clicks shows how many times readers clicked each button in your navigation bar, such as Info, Home, Custom Button, Contact Card or Share. Buttons with no bar weren't clicked in your date range.

Audience Click Actions lists every link, hotspot and other interactive element readers clicked on your pages. For each one, you see:


  • Action: what was clicked, for example a hotspot or a link with its web address.
  • Page: the page it's on.
  • Clicks: how many times it was clicked.
  • Last Open: the date and time of the most recent click.
  • Location: the city of the most recent click.
  • Device: the device used for the most recent click.

The report shows clicks and locations. It doesn't show who your readers are.

How do I see clicks on one page?


Under Show By Page, choose a page from the Select Page menu. The report and the .md file you download update to show clicks on that page only. Choose All to see clicks across your whole Simplebooklet.


The Show By Page section, with an arrow pointing to the Select Page menu.



How do I change the date range?


Click the date range in the top-right corner of Reports, then choose Today, Yesterday, Last 7 Days, Last 30 Days, This Year, All Time or Custom Range.


Both parts of the report and the .md file you download use the date range you choose.


The Reports page with the date range menu open, and an arrow pointing to the date range.



How do I download the chart as a .md file?


  1. Set the date range you want.
  2. To download one page's clicks, choose that page in Select Page. Leave it on All for your whole Simplebooklet.
  3. On the Navbar Clicks chart, click MD in its top-right corner.


The file saves to your downloads folder, named after the chart and dates, for example navbar-clicks-2026-06-02-to-2026-10-18.md.

The file includes your Simplebooklet's title, the date range, the page it's filtered to (if you chose one), a one-line description of the chart and a table of every navigation bar button with its number of clicks. The Audience Click Actions table isn't included in the file. It contains click totals only, with no names or email addresses.



What can I do with the .md file?


Ask ChatGPT or Claude about it


  1. Open ChatGPT or Claude.
  2. Attach the .md file, or open it and paste the text into the chat.
  3. Ask a question about how readers use your navigation bar.


No API keys or setup needed. The AI recommends; you decide what to change.

Try prompts like these:


  • "Which navbar buttons do readers use most, and which could I remove?"
  • "Is my Custom Button getting clicked? How could I make it stand out more?"
  • "Readers rarely click my navbar. What should I put directly on my pages instead?"

Use it with your other report files


Attach the Navbar Clicks file to the same chat as your Opens or Page Views files and ask how they fit together. Or paste it into an email, Slack message or doc to share your numbers with your team.



Common questions


Why do some navbar buttons show no clicks?


No reader clicked them in your date range. The chart lists every button your navigation bar can show. If a button isn't turned on in your Simplebooklet, it won't get clicks.


Does the Navbars and Actions report show who clicked?


No. It shows clicks, pages, cities and devices. To collect readers' names and email addresses, use a Lead Gate. Learn more: Track Lead Gate Results in your Simplebooklet


Why don't the numbers in my .md file match what I expected?


Check your date range. The file only includes clicks from the date range set in the top-right corner of Reports when you downloaded it. To see every click since you published, choose All Time.
