[Plugin: Google Analytics for WordPress] Google Analytics Not Working

  • Hi All,
    I’m bit of a newbie with WordPress..apologizes if I seem ignorant. I’ve installed my google analytics plugin onto my wordpress site, which appears under my Plugins tab and settings tab in wordpress. I’ve set up a google account and pasted my web property ID into the wordpress google analytics plugin settings page. When I access my google analytics page, I see a warning symbol underneath the status heading..and i have no activity on my site, not sure what I’m doing wrong?
    Any help would be much appreciated..
    thanks for reading,

  • I have the same problem. I don’t have <?php wp_footer(); ?> in my footer.php. I have no idea where I should write this code. Can anyone help?

    hi magaworks that should be right before the </body> tag!

    Hi,
    where are the tracked downloads? Are they in my domain or in Google Analytics account?

    Can anyone help me?,
    Thanks in advance,

    Hello,

    Analytics is showing that reporting is on but I’m getting no data.. just 0 visitors. I checked my footer.php file and the above code is in there just fine.

    The plugin is working on 8 of my other sites just fine. I don’t think my theme is causing the problem because I have the same theme on another site.

    May I e-mail you the url of my site so you can take a look?

    Thanks for the great plugin! I really mean that – I’ve used it for a long time now.

    Like cs00102, I am also having a similar issue–a yellow warning sign and no activity nor statistics noted. I’ve not waited the requisite 24 hours, but I have checked footer.php to find <?php wp_footer(); ?> already there. I shall wait until tomorrow before commenting further on this matter. I did notice, though, that I am unable to select placement of this code in the header even though it is in the drop-down menu. It always defaults to the footer as noted. I find this curious.

    As an update: this is now working for me. It seems it just takes several hours for the code to propagate. Thanks for reading!

    seleniumgirl – how long did it take, i’ve got the waiting for data sign for 2 days….
