Google Analytics

    I don’t mean to start yet another Google Analytics thread, but I can’t get the java script code to be recognized by Google.

    I have browsed several of the previous posts on this topic, and followed the advice to no avail. Everyone says to add the code just before the </body> tag in the footer. However, the theme I am using has no code in the footer.php file, and has no </body> tag that I can find in any of the theme files. People in the other threads say “I assure you that the </body> tag is in the footer.php. Well, I hate to break it to ya, but that’s not the case with my theme.

    Here is the code that is in my footer.php file:

    <?php $_F=__FILE__;$_X='Pz48IS0tIGI1ZzRuIGYyMnQ1ciAtLT4NCg0KPGQ0
diBzdHlsNT0iY2w1MXI6YjJ0aDsiPjwvZDR2Pg0KPGQ0diBzdHlsNT0iY2

Pg==';eval(base64_decode('JF9YPWJhc2U2NF9kZWNvZGUoJF9YKTsk
X1g9c3RydHIoJF9YLCcxMjM0NTZhb3VpZScsJ2FvdWllMTIzNDU2Jyk7JF
9SPWVyZWdfcmVwbGFjZSgnX19GSUxFX18nLCInIi4kX0YuIiciLCRfWCk7
ZXZhbCgkX1IpOyRfUj0wOyRfWD0wOw=='));?>

    The code is actually much longer than this, but the beginning and end were included here. It is just one long string of gibberish; it looks almost like a PGP encryption algorithm.

    At any rate, I also tried placing the code in my header file, but when I do it also doesn’t work. When I view my page source code, the script shows up in the HTML file, which means it isn’t in the right place.

    I have also downloaded plugins that insert the code for you, but these plugins do not work either.

    What do I do?

    Nevermind, I figured it out. I had incorrectly entered my blog as https://www.mydomain.com and did not enter /blog where my blog is located. GA didn’t know where to look.

    I am still befuddled by the footer.php file looking like an encryption algorithm. ??

    what you see in your footer is crap, literally. Its put there by the theme author — youre theme is sponsored .. no doubt it has “spam” links in the footer — thats what the “crap” produces.
