Site Meter

  • headlessponch · Member ·

    I want to have Site Meter (www.sitemeter.com) as my stat tracker. They give you a code to plug into your stylesheet. I’ve only used Blogger before, and I don’t really know where to put it in the WordPress stylesheet I use.

    Any help?

    Here is my stylesheet:

    [deleted stylesheet – drmike]

    – Please provide the code that you need to input and a link to your current style sheet.

    – Normally we suggest adding in sitemeter via a text widget as it’s a simple copy and paste. You can see instructions for that located here

    – You are reading the instructions for a wordpress.com blog and not a regular wordpress blog, right?

    I tried to add code generated by an account I opened at the “Statcounter” site. Tried dropping it into the text widget, but it seems theirs needs to be bracketed by <html><body></body></html> tags… so some parts of the javascript remain visible on the page to visitors. Anyyone know how to correctly use “Statcounter’ ?

    johnrankin,
    the javascript bits will be stripped out automatically if you put them in wordpress – this is by design. You need to use the HTML version.

    Site meter no longer records any new hits after March 7 for some reason while both Statcounter and Dashboard are still getting hits and referrals.

    Can someone help me out?
