 * I’ve got a website up and running now and am trying to add some code from statcounter.
   com so I can gauge my traffic but it won’t include it on the page…
 * I add the code supplied for me to the footer above the </body> code and then 
   when i go to view -> page source for my site it just isnt in there even though
   I say upload file and it says “File edited successfully.”
 * I don’t understand how the code it says I have in the wordpress admin can differ
   from that of the page itself, am I doing something stupid?

 * Hi drafty, have you tried to paste in the code in the text widget and put it 
   in your sidebar?

 * Hey Kim, just gave that a go and had a look at the page source and it looks to
   be in there now so thanks!
 * Wonder why it wasn’t adding in the actual footer editor though…
 * I’ll have a check of my statcounter tomorrow to make sure.

 * You’re very welcome. In the footer, i also never tried to put it there, except
   for google anaylitics code, or somekind. Greetings
