 * I’m trying to setup Google Analytics and I suspect there is a conflict with WordPress
   Stats because GA isn’t working. I used [http://www.sitescanga.com](http://www.sitescanga.com)
   to check and it’s saying none of my pages are setup correctly.
 * Here’s what I did: I setup my GA account, then ran the Ultimate Google Analytics
   plugin. When I view my Page Source I can see the code is inserted, but the GA
   code is followed by the WordPress Stats code, which is then followed by the closing
   body tag. I think the GA code has be be immediately before the closing body tag
   to work, is that true? So then I thought I could remove the WordPress Stats code,
   but simply deactivating the plugin doesn’t do it.
 * So I guess my questions are:
    1. Does the Google Analytics code have to be immediately
   before the closing body tag? Or can the WordPress Stats code be after the GA 
   code? 2. How do I remove the WordPress Stats code?
 * As you can tell, my technical expertise is sorta newbie level. Thanks.

    Not really.
   You can infact put it in your footer.
 * _2. How do I remove the WordPress Stats code?_
    Deactivate the plugin.
