So I opened YOAST’S GA for WP plugin “debug mode” and this is the report. Can anyone comment, or provide insight why GA is not passing hits from WP to GA:

WP USER IPSTENU REPLIED:

“When I load your page, I can see the GA code in there so it’s THERE and that’s all Google should need… Is UA-2109736-2 your right GA ‘code’?

Are you using any GA filters on their site?

The only odd thing I see in your source code is, at the bottom, there’s this:
<script type=”text/javascript”>
<!– include google analytics –>
and then a huge section of code I don’t recognize (nor see on my site, and I too am using Yoast). Maybe you have a function or something else that’s calling in the code twice?

You could start going down the list here: https://www.google.com/support/analyticshelp/bin/answer.py?answer=1009683&#8243;

This helped me figure out partly. Hope it helps:

Hey Ryanve,

We’ll Ipstenu has been awesome straightening out the Robots.txt. But alas Google Analy is just not being passed anything. Here is what I’ve done to try to get it to work (and it worked for years before this site update to WP):

1. I’ve tried just placing GA code manually at bottom of page (no reading by GA)
2. Have installed Yoast’s WordPress SEO plugin and placed at top in header (still no reading by GA). Yoast’s plugin authorized via OAoth and is 100% connect to GA acct.
3. Have reverified my domain with Google (https://www.google.com/accounts/ManageDomains)
4. Have verified my in Google Webmaster the domain also with THREE versions:
A. DNS verified
B. HTML google doc placed on server and verified.
C. Verified also with Google Analy via Google Webmaster (so they are linked seeing each other as owning same domain).
5. Have contacted hosting company for our VPS and there team has looked through and can’t see what could be causing issue of GA not picking up our hits on the site.

* WordPress Stats is working fine as is AWStats on server.

So why oh why is Google Analy not picking up the counts?

Paypal for sure if you can sleuth this one out – It has me totally stumped and has been 5 days now of no stats inside GA (just 1 hit per day – from Googlebot is being registered).

Huge THANKS! What’s your Paypal. Coffee on me ?? Reach me on Twitter: @meninkilts Cheers.

Hey Yoast and WP Community ??

Following up on above post. I’m still not able to get Yoast’s GA Plugin to authenticate. When I click inside the plugin it bring me this Google Acct error (malformed request?):

“The page you have requested cannot be displayed. Another site was requesting access to your Google Account, but sent a malformed request. Please contact the site that you were trying to use when you received this message to inform them of the error. A detailed error message follows:

The site “https://meninkilts.com&#8221; has not been registered.”

**Note we have actually three verification with Google on this domain: DNS record, Google Analytics and we uploaded HTML to server – All verified and working great with GA.

Does anyone have any suggestions or Yoast if you want I can give you access to our Google Apps accts to debug?

Cheers Brent
