No stats

  • I created a blog about a week ago and added this plug-in two or three days later. I put in my api key and activated it and everything looks OK except that it is still not showing any stats. I realize that with a new blog maybe I just haven’t gotten any traffic yet, but I’m already indexed in Google and Technorati, etc., plus I’ve exchanged links with a couple of other sites. My main clue that something might not be right is that I created this blog from my home computer, but have visited it from my work computer as well–and those visits are not being recorded either. I know it filters out your own visits, but it should see my work-computer visits as “not me” (if that makes sense).

    Thanks.

    P.S: If anyone cares to visit (so I can see if any stats show up), the URL is https://www.bankingontheblog.com.

  • I gave your site a few clicks.

    Don’t quote me on this
    I’m not exactly sure how the stats plugin works but I think that once you log in to your blog from a certain ip address it isn’t counted in the stats anymore, therefore if you’ve logged in from work and home then the stats wouldn’t show up. Just a thought.

    If you’re using WordPress Stats from Automattic, I’m going to take a guess, but the theme you’re using doesn’t have <?php wp_footer(); ?>, that’s the function that calls the Stats tracking.

    Good call peiqinlong. Didn’t think about that.

    Thanks everybody for the quick responses. I just checked, and <?php wp_footer(); ?> is in my index.php file (if that’s where you mean).

    Also, I still have no clicks or anything showing in stats (thanks jeremyclark13 for trying it).

    I have seen references elsewhere to resolving problems with this plug-in by deactivating it and then activating it again. I don’t see why that would resolve anything, but maybe I will gave that a try.

    Deactivating and reactivating it did not work either.

    just return to the default WP theme for a few days and see if that works out – if, yes, your theme is at fault.

    It looks like it should go in the footer, my old template had it there, my new templat edid not, and I also stopped getting stats when I upgraded.

    The index does have a “get footer” call, but not the wp_footer as noted above.

    Someone click here too, so I can see if my stats are now working (can’t genertae stats from my home computer!)

    Yes, that fixed the problem for me, double check the call and place it in the footer. Thanks to the person who clicked!

    Just for clarification, this:
    <?php wp_footer(); ?>
    must be in the file footer.php of whichever theme you are using.
