can't find stats

At the top right of your dashboard, find “JetPack”,then “Site Stats” . this will open the statistics if you enabled that option before.

Sorry I’m not using Jetpack, I’m using the old wordpress.com stats plugin. I can’t find the link on my dashboard where it ought to be.

It should be under the dashboard icon itself.

Hmm that’s what I thought, but it’s not showing up there. These are the top links on my dashboard, skip to main content, Dashboard, Home, Updates, and Akismet Stats. From there it goes to posts add new and categories etc.

It should be just below the Akismet Stats and in the toolbar across the top. I am using Version 1.8.6 from https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/stats/

In the upper right corner check screen options. Stats should be checked.

That’s the same version I’m running. I’ll try deactivating and activating again. Will that erase all my previous stats?

Ok that’s odd. I’ve deactivated and activated the plugin again but no luck, the stats link is still not showing up where it should. There’s also no option in screen options for stats.
