Blog Stats working on 1 blog, not the other

    Hi all, I have two blogs using the wordpress.org software on my host. I am using the word press stats and I am using my wordpress.com API key for both sites to get the stats plugin working.

    I can get correct stats on one blog, but I get absolute nothing on the other blog. Can I only use my API on one blog for word press stats or what? It looks like I have everything set up okay – any suggestions as why this is happening and how to fix it ? Thanks.

    My stats stopped working several days ago. It’s still recording incoming links, but it’s showing my visits as zero. What’s going on?

    Mine too! Two blogs, one API Key. One site is showing all the statistics, and the other blog gets nothing. It shows no stats, no traffic and no hits.

    I checked the server logs, and I am getting traffic on the second site. Feedburner agrees–there are people visiting the site.

    Any thoughts?

    I fixed it! There is a guy named darthvader (I think) who posted the link. He said something about using the force . . . .

    Anyways, in whatever template you are using, edit the Footer page.

    Make sure that these two lines are posted above the closing </body> tag. If you don’t have the </body> tag, you will need to add it.

    <?php wp_footer(); ?>
<?php do_action('wp_footer'); ?>

    I added these two lines, hit refresh and there were visitors on my site–and statistics to tell me about it.

    You can edit the files using the editor (clicking on the Design button). I edited the original file and sent it to the server using FTP.

    Good luck!

    Do I put it in both blogs or just the one I can’t get stats from?
