WP-Stats and WP-Stats-Dashboard not working (4 posts)

    Hi
    I recently switched from wordpress.com to wordpress.org.I've installed WP-Stats version 2.5 and WP-Stats-Dashboard v.1.6.3 but have been unable to make them start recording stats at all. My site is http://alisonbate.ca

    I've dug out the API key from my wordpress.com blog. I've also deactivated all other plug-ins except for Akismeet, in case that was causing problems.

    I have successfully pointed my domain name at my new server (DreamHost), and installed a new theme, and the new blog itself is working fine. My old blog still exists at http://alisonbate.wordpress.com.

    Any suggestions?

    Hi,

    My suggestion is to use the latest version of both plugins.

    Step 1: Install this plugin first: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/stats/
    Step 2: Follow its instructions, enter api key, add blog to your wordpress.com account etc.
    Step 3: Install the latest version of wp-stats-dashboard
    Step 4: Enter username and password in the wp-stats-dashboard settings and check all boxes.

    Let me know of this works for you. If this works for you please resolve this topic.

    Cheers,

    Dave

    A couple of questions. First, I'm running worpress.org, not .com. How do I find an API on my .org site?

    Second, how do I install this site stat ap on a .org site?

    Thanks for the help!
