WP plugin - followed instructions - no data

(9 posts)

    The WordPress plugin is installed and showing up in the admin section where it should. I entered the website ID where it needs to go. I clicked update and was patient... a week or so later and still no stats are showing.

    Now I know I don't get a lot of visitors but Google analytics tells me I at least get some!

    I have the latest version of WordPress. It's a stand alone install. Every other plugin I install works so I'm thinking the theme is standards compliant. It's a basic theme with no bells or whistles.

    I've not tried the manual install as I'd rather know why the plugin's not working / what I am doing wrong or leaving out.

    Any advice / suggestions would be great (so long as there polite!). Thanks to anyone that can help.

    so it looks like I should have been a bit more thorough in looking for the solution in the forum threads - I found a likely looking answer here http://www.woopra.com/forums/topic/the-woopra-wordpress-plugin#post-1193

    I'll give it a go and see how I get on.

    I just visited your website home page and saw no Woopra "stuff".

    Thanks for looking iamve. I added '<?php wp_footer(); ?>' to the footer before the '</body>' element. After doing so the stats began showing the date though nothing else. Not sure what else to do now. Any ideas?

    here is what the footer.php looks like -

    '<div id="footer">
    <p>
    </p>
    <p>
    </p>
    <p>
    Unless it says so otherwise...
    </p>

    </div>

    <?php mb_footer(); ?>

    </body>

    </html>'

    You should add <?php wp_footer(); ?>

    Cheers Elie - I don't use the default wp_ in my database table structure hence mb_ and not wp_. It seemed logical to reflect that in the code. Is my logic wrong? It would not be the first time!

    I also tried the WP plugin, without any avail. Keep in mind, though, that the WP plugin will only track REGISTERED users who log onto your blog. If you would like to track all traffic to your blog, simply install your Woopra provided tracking code into the footer.php file of your WP theme.

    Thanks for chipping in mbruckner. I overlooked the point that the plugin only tracked registered users - duhh me!! Thank you for mentioning it.

    A note to end this thread for anyone interested is that by adding the the bit of php code '<?php wp_footer(); ?>' sorted the problem in the first instance. By also adding the tracker code to the footer I got to where I wanted to be.

    Everything is working fine - yay!!
