URL http://example.com/site-statistics, places the custom button on
domain administration pages, includes domain ID#, domain name, and
client ID# in browser requests generated by clicking on the button, sets
the context help message for the button as Click to go to
site-statistics
, and makes the button available in control panels of
all domain users.
