# [Plugin: WP SlimStat] Installation

 * I’ve installed this at a fresh new blog as per the Installation section, and 
   tested from a few machines. Yet looking at the stats page, it’s not tracking 
   anything.
 * My new blog is at [http://www.shiroikuma.co.uk](http://www.shiroikuma.co.uk) (
   can you tell from the html if its working or not?)
 * On the maintenance page I keep seeing “It looks like you need to update the structure
   of one of the tables used by this plugin. Please click the button here above 
   to reset your table (all the data will be lost, sorry), then deactivate/reactivate
   WP SlimStat to complete the installation process.” next to the Reset Stats button,
   so I’ve tried that too… but nothing.
 * And I don’t get any errors on any page (no php errors, no javascript errors).
 * I hope you can help, thanks.

 * It looks like Wp Slimstat is not being able to create one of the tables needed
   to store all the information about pageviews etc. What tables that start with“
   wp_slim_” do you see in your database? Could you also list what fields each table
   contains? Do you have access to your mysql logfiles to get some more information
   from there?
 * Thanks

 * That could definitely be a problem. Only the 11 base tables from WP are there,
   with my correct prefix. There are no wp_slim_ or any _slim_ tables whatsoever.
 * Also, forgot to say I don’t know where the log files are for mysql. I am trying
   to find them though.

 * Are you trying to install Wp Slimstat in a “network” (WordPress MU) environment
   with more than 50 blogs in it?

 * It’s actually a dedicated vhost running arch linux, suhosin php, apache and mysql.
   WordPress was put directly into the root / folder too.

 * Ahh, nope. Not an MU as that’s the first I’ve heard about it. Standard, default
   3.3.1 install.

 * I see. Well, your MySQL logfile could tell us what’s going on. Do you have access
   to that information?

 * All I can see is updates to wp_options. Would you like the raw binary.000007 
   file?

 * Could you try to create those tables via phpmyadmin? you can find the SQL in 
   wp-slimstat.php
 * Thanks

 * I’ve created the tables manually now. I noticed when doing that, that you have
   a mix of {$wpdb->prefix} and {$wpdb->base_prefix}.
 * But it appears to be working now. Thanks for that. Still confusing as to why 
   it didn’t attempt to create the tables.

 * I feel like I’m being fussy, but it’s listing the screen resolutions wrong.
 * It’s listing the only viewer, as 1680×925. But it should be 1680×1050.
 * However I’m fully aware that this could be Chrome (17.0.963.83 m) reporting that
   wrongly to the javascript.

 * No, that is the expected behavior. People want to know how big the viewport was
   when the user was visiting that page. I can have 3 screens one next to the other
   for a total width of 3072 pixels, but with the browser open inside the first 
   screen. It is more useful to know what the browser window’s size was, not the
   user’s screen resolution 😉 Also, don’t forget that the width of the scrollbar
   is not included.
 * Ps: a vote for my plugin would be a nice way to say thank you.

 * Okay, cool. To me as developer I think of viewport and screen resolution as very
   different things. But I understand that design decision.
 * Thanks for the help in getting it working, and I already have ^^ Thanks again

 * Yeah, I see your point, but most people understand what a “screen resolution”
   is, viewport would be a cryptic term for them…

 * Hello Camu,
 * Same problem here as Naijeru, all the fields inside admin panel are empty (for
   the slimstat plugin).
 * I am using:
    Wordpress 3.3.2 WP SLimStat 2.8
 * All the fields are showing up as i should expect but it is not collecting any
   data (no data available)
 * I can’t figure out how Naijeru solved this problem. Can you please give me a 
   direction what to do?
 * Thanks,
 * DJJackass
