   Tracking of downloads isn't working right for non-www domains (i.e. blog.example.com). Technically, it actually works, but the tracked url looks bad ("/downloadsblog./path/to/file"). This is because of line 475 of googleanalytics.php:

   $file = str_replace('www.',"",$file);

   I fixed it locally by changing "www." to "blog.", but obviously there's a general way to do this. Just thought I'd report it.

   So if I am not using www. in my URLs, how do I fix this?
   Do I just replace line 475 with what you have above?
   Thanks!

   It depends on your domain. If your domain is blog.example.com

   change:
   $file = str_replace('www.',"",$file);
   to:
   $file = str_replace('blog.',"",$file);

   If you're just using example.com, I don't think you need to do anything.

   Hmm I'll have another look at this, seems like something I should be fixing ;) (or getting rid of in the first place, why not leave the www in there? :) )
