My Google Analytics is now working. I removed all files from the script and added the script code that Google Analytics generates for my site to the html_header.php file in mytemplate/common. I guess that's what did it.

i notice that my guests online, when i know for a fact people off an ebid forum are viewing my site, but when i check my analytics i only have a record of say 2 visitors, even though i know there were at least 10 at a point, could this be the setup?

i got a reply back from google to check all my settings over agian, re my problem with analytics clicks not counting on analytics, i used the module provided on these forums but from what i can see the code has inserted in the head and not body tags? can this be resolved?

Hi,

I found the easiest way of incorporating Google Analytics into my site was to take the Javascript code that Google creates for you and paste it into the following:

includes/templates/YOUR_TEMPLATE/common/tpl_main_page.php

Paste the code at the end of the php script just before the closing BODY TAG </body>

You will now find that you can see the Javascript code at the bottom of every page of your site by looking at the source code in your browser.

Yes, that may be the easiest way, and will give basic results.
However, there are more efficient ways to do it if you want different kinds of tracking on different pages. These approaches are documented in numerous other discussion threads.
