+# Creating the custom endpoint file
+// To use a different custom endpoint file location, first create a file at your preferred location and copy over the contents from the file linked below
+// file: https://github.com/ibericode/koko-analytics/blob/master/koko-analytics-collect.php
+
+# Fix path references
+// In the file, fix the relative file paths to the uploads directory and the functions.php file from the wp-content/plugins/koko-analytics directory.
+
+# Define a constant
+// To tell Koko Analytics of your custom endpoint, define the following constant:
+define( 'KOKO_ANALYTICS_CUSTOM_ENDPOINT', '/path-to-your-custom-endpoint-file.php' );
+
+# Test the result
+// Finally, ensure the file is accessible through your web server and that Koko Analytics is able to use it correctly.
