  • Me too. I HATE the new stats and wish I had NOT updated. There should be an option to choose the old stats and not be forced into this horrible new version.

    You can rest assured: the old stats are still there! There are different ways to access the old Stats page:

    * You can click on “View All” in the Stats dashboard widget.
    * You can click on “View Old Stats” in the new Jetpack dashboard.
    * You can click on the Stats graph appearing in the admin bar when viewing your site.

    We’ve chosen to highlight the new Stats for a few reasons:

    1) The new Stats on WordPress.com include an “Insights” tab that gives you a little summary of how well your site is performing, when it might be best to publish future posts, how your previous posts have performed so far.
    2) New Stats include Geographical Stats, showing you where your visitors are coming from.
    3) New Stats display Page Views of course, but also Unique Visits, to give you an idea of the number of different people that actually visited your site.
    4) The new Stats screen is responsive, while the old stats are not. It’s consequently a lot easier to view your stats from a mobile device.

    I hope this clarifies things a bit. Can you think of some data you’d like us to add the new Stats page, to make them more useful?

    Just to be CLEAR: The old stats gave me a LOT of information to help evaluate how my site is doing.
    I hate that I have to go through hoops to get to the old stats.
    It makes me want to look for a better plug in for stats.
    All I use JetPack for is the stats, and now you’ve made them a lot harder to access.
