Multiple stats accounts and API key

  • Hello Everybody,

    I’m using the stats plugin on my blog https://www.ciloubidouille.com.

    I have two accounts and two API keys (one for making tries and the other one is the good one).

    When the plugin asked me to give an API key, I gave the API key of my test account. Now, I saw that all is fine, I would like to give the API key of my real account but it seems to be impossible.

    WordPress has registered that my blog is belonging to my test account and it refuses to change the API key.
    I’m not satisfied by the possibility to add another user to view my statistics because I want my test account to be delete after a time.

    Could you help me ?
    How can I do to un-register my blog from my test account ?

    Thanks a lot for your help, and sorry for my poor english.

  • Hi Avatar120, I am experiencing the same problem. Do you get this resolved?

    I was able to add the user to the fisrt wordpress hosted clog and view my stats on iconogeek.com. However now I need to remove the iconogeek.com blog from the first blog account. I am awaiting a solution on this from support. I’ll post if I get a resolution.

    Thanks

    Got the same problem can anybody help us?? please

    Nobody got a solution to those problems?

    I got a related problem: I have been using Stats for several externally hosted WordPress blogs, all with one API key (without problems).
    Now I have deleted those blogs and merged them into one, on one web adress, but I cannot delete the accounts or profiles (or whatever it’s called) of the no longer existings blogs in the WordPress.com Dashboard. I have no problems using Stats with my existing blog, but it’s annoying to see profiles listed for blogs that no longer exist!

    All these problems should be taken over to wordpress.com, where they can be dealt with.

    And in the future, might I suggest not making test accounts, or attaching blogs to services with the wrong keys, or doing anything weird like that? One account, one key. Don’t mess with that. You run the risk of having all your accounts deleted and told not to come back. The terms of service are pretty clear, and you don’t need to be doing weird things.

    If you’ve got access to your MySQL database for your WordPress install, you can go into the table and manually change it.

    Do a search for “wordpress_api_key” within the database or your actual API key. That’ll let you find the field you need to change.

    If your blog is actually hosted on wordpress.com, then i’m not sure what to tell you, i’m afraid.

    @sneakykitty: It is not the issue in the blog, it is about the problem we can’t remove the external blog record with WordPress.com. Once you add in your WordPress.com account, you can remove it.

    I have the same problem and I posted the question here:

    And I read from the Wordpres.com Forum about the user @absoluteblogs feedbacks:
    I just sent in a support request on wordpress.com, and they un-registered the blog from my wordpress.com account for me. They currently don’t have a user-side feature that can accomplish this (I requested that as well).
