  I’ve just moved our site from self-hosted into wordpress.com and everything is great except for our hit counter. I previously used the “Count Per Day” plug-in. On the free plan I only have access to the “Blog Stats” plug-in for hit counting. As a result I’ve had to start over from zero. Is there any way I can modify this number to reflect our new hits plus our old hits (over 15k)?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  No there is no way to use that on a wordpress.COM hosted blog.

  Blogger installed plugin capability does not exist on WordPress.COM blogs and there is no upgrade you can purchase here that changes that reality.

  For that type of functionality you’d need a self-hosted WordPress.ORG software install running on a paid web hosting service.

  Thanks for the quick response timethief! I figured as much since I couldn’t figure it out. Thank you just the same.
