Problem with stats after installing a new theme

  • Hi,

    Last night I installed a new wordpress theme for girlfriends site. It appears now that the wp-stats module has stopped working because it’s reporting zero visits today, which I know is wrong, as I keep track of stats a few different ways, my own web server logs, Google Analytics and via wp-stats.

    I’ve been seeing a steady decline in reported stats, although both Analytics and my web server logs seem to indicate either traffic is staying the same or going up slightly.

    I analyzed the code from footer.php in my old theme and my new theme; and from what I can tell, it doesn’t seem to be very different. Neither make reference to wp_footer(); Is it possible that the issue lies elsewhere?

    Any solutions or even the ability to point me in the right direction would be helpful.

    Cheers,
    Mark

    PS The girlfriends site is https://www.sobloggy.com if it helps to take a look.

  • Is wp_footer(); in the footer.php? I looked at the source code and I don’t see the code that WP Stats inserts when it’s working properly.

    What if the stats don’t start showing up? Do I need anything special in my theme?

    Yes, your theme must have a call to <?php wp_footer(); ?> at the very bottom right before the </body> tag.
