OK. I will not have access to my computer for a while,but I see another thread with the same issue was opened at the same time, so I will check it later for a resolution.

Thanks. I will try all those things when I get a chance.

SOLVED: Thanks, you hit the nail on the head. It was software (Adaway) blocking the site. I disabled Adaway and it worked. Just for the heck of it I then re-enabled Adaway and it still worked; apparently when the host file was rebuilt during the re-enable process it fixed something.

On a side note, I am curious…Do you think the reason I can’t get individual buttons to work has something to do with my Theme (just guessing here)? The reason I am asking is that I tried two other social media plugins before I got to yours and they didn’t work either (as in the buttons didn’t show up on the page at all or were distorted). For some reason your Universal button works fine.

Maybe something to consider adding, however just a nice to have feature for me. I am not using the information for anything critical. Google Analytics tells me that someone came from my WordPress page, and I don’t really have to know what they pressed to get there (I offer two ways), although I could see where someone would want to know this in order to find the effectiveness of their buttons, urls, etc.

SOLVED. I see; thanks for explaining that. I was thinking “external” meant external to WordPress. Pretty new to all of this. I can rely on Google Analytics to supply that information. Your program still supplies me with the other missing WordPress specific information.

Thanks for the reply and here is some more information if it helps. Today I also tried different browsers and still no result (IE and Firefox). On the “Content” page, other than the “Average Pageview” graph and “Your Website”, the only other populated area is the “Top Authors” box. On the Overview page, the “Spy View” field is populated. As I said, everything else seems to be working OK.

What is the URL of the page where the outbound link is?
https://www.flaminghellmet.com/wpblog/

And what’s the link on that page?
https://www.flaminghellmet.com/launch/Home.php

That is why I asked whether it was added “on the fly”. Thanks for explaining that.

Weird. It is not in either my current theme’s header or footer file, but it is in my live web page. I also checked every other file and it is not there as well. Whatever, at least it works. I was just curious how that can be.

No other problems. I just wrote the OP for others that might come across the same problem. I see now that someone else had the same problem in an earlier post.

I do have a question. On my non-Wordpress websites I just add the GA script manually. In what file does your program put the actual script, as I don’t see it anywhere. Is it added on the fly somehow to the published page?

I can’t remember exactly what I did after upgrading as it was a while ago, but like I said, turning the plugin off, reinserting the property ID, and then turning it back on fixed the problem.

Great, everyone wins; that is why I specifically asked what changes were made to get it to work in the event it would help others. I have limited knowledge of all this as I built a web site simply for a hobby I wanted to post, so I am at the mercy of everyone, but I am slowly picking up things.

This is really a great backup program. To be honest I thought that the backup command that came with WordPress was backing up everything, but it is really pretty much useless if things go really wrong as it misses so many things.

As it turns out, the format was not correct for the LiteSpeed server fix. Per the warning that was displayed on the dashboard of your program, and the instructions that it pointed to, I added the following line to the .htaccess file before I ran my very first backup. That backup worked, but took a very long time:

RewriteRule ^$ – [E=noabort:1]

However, according to the host company, that format is not correct, and an additonal two other lines were added:

<IfModule litespeed>
RewriteRule .* – [E=noabort:1]
</IfModule>

That immediately fixed the problem and the backup now completes in just a few minutes.

Anyway – to rule out this possibility, simply hit “Backup Now”, then close your browser windows immediately. Then there’ll be no I/O being used for anything else. (“Backup Now” schedules a backup for 5 seconds time).

I ran a backup, closed the browser, reopened it an hour later and the backup is still looping. There is a new error on the backup page:

Mon, January 27, 2014 10:19 – next resumption: 3 (after 27s) – show log – delete schedule?Warning: Your website is visited infrequently and UpdraftPlus is not getting the resources it hoped for; please read this page: https://updraftplus.com/faqs/why-am-i-getting-warnings-about-my-site-not-having-enough-visitors/

It looks like the ticket was escalated to a senior person, if that is of any help I don’t know..

Here is the response from the hosting Tech Support: (NOTE: I am currently running your backup program, so the following log would be coming from updraft.)

“The issue isn’t really server load, if you click on ‘Resource Usage’ in cPanel, you are hitting the IO limit for your account.”

“Looks like whatever you are doing right now is causing all of the IO. It’s constantly opening up 4-5 PHP processes every second.”:
