Hi

I used to use Game News which tracked perfectly but since changing over to Game Magazine the Google Analytics code seems to be bugged.

I know for a fact its not tracking correctly as other stats software shows a massive difference in numbers. I have added just the UA-XXXXX code in the features section but it just seems to not be tracking right, it tracks but it seems to be very hit and miss.

Edit:
After looking at source code for some reason using the UA-XXXX insertion via the features bit in the template manager it chooses to add the code right at the bottom of the source code. Which is not what Google suggests. The template is not placing it near the top of the code which I am guessing is why there are tracking issues.

Could You pos ant url to your site?
It seems quite strange, that code sometimes works and sometimes not :/.
Do You use cache in J?

Cache is off I believe

CSS Caching is on in the template options though.

Hmm... check out this thread:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/9618 ... s-com-ga-j

It seems like Googles browser (Chrome) with AdBlock plugin on sets this script as ad and blocks it... So this might be the case.
Search further for info about:
Google Analytics - Failed to load resource: http://www.google-analytics.com/ga.js
as it seems to be a more wide problem.
