Description

We know that loading the "Current week" or "Current month" can result in a "Shock" where the graphs are trending down massively (see https://github.com/matomo-org/matomo/issues/10291)

It would be useful to let people select the following options:

  • "Last week"
  • "Last Month"

additionally to the ones we currently offer in Report date to load by default:

This would also be consistent to how we already have "Yesterday".

Contributor guide

Research direction
Locate the settings UI code for default date selection and the backend logic that determines the initial report date. Add the options "Last week" and "Last month" to the dropdown and ensure the backend processes these new values correctly.
