Thank you. Your question led me to the sad truth that the “ADS-wpSiteCount” plugin that I was using has been permanently closed.
However I was able to search and find a similar one called Live Counter. Here is the link in case anyone else needs to upgrade their visitor counter:

Thanks. These solutions looked promising, but the settings were already correct and it unfortunately DID NOT WORK. How can I solve this?
