Just put the brain in and start functioning again. I changed skins or as they are called with WordPress “Theme”.

Since WordPress is new to me and this is the first blog I have looked around in I used the default layout for a couple of days and everything was fine. I added my “Google Analytics” code and traffic was as expected for a new fresh out of the box blog. Then “curiosity got the cat” and I started playing around with some lines of code, adding a new “Theme” messing around with the pictures rotating on top right corner. Theme looked great I sat down and had a cold one while “patting myself on the back” with the great job I did.

Last night I was going over my Analytics account and “what the <insert favorite explicit>”, no traffic at ADA. Yesterday It was over a 100 uniques and today nada, zip, zilch… I’m looking at the robots.txt, .htaccess and server logs, there is traffic, why isn’t it showing up in my Analytics account?

Reminder to self!

Put the tracking code in the new skin or it will not work.

I was ready to start posting on Google Analytics Help about how Google was blocking my data… (If you believe that send me an email with your offer for the waterfront property I have in Arizona.) snowjob@example.com will get you anything you need and the rest is up to you. Work hard play hard and lie about your age.

If you read this far you have access to the button that will turn my brain back on, please hit the button. It is somewhere over there on the right —->>
