Is there anyway to stop google analytics recoding word-press administrator visits as its screwing my statistic's up?

Why not just ask Google?

Yes, is the answer. I suppose you could ask Google, but who wants to wait for a month to get a reply.

Go to your wordpress admin panel and install and activate the plug-in called "Google Analyticator" this will add a new link on the left side of your admin panel and there is an option in it that will allow you stop tracking any visits from a user logged in as admin.

This is pretty quick and easy to setup.

Hope it helps,

Otherwise, instead google analitycs use wordpress plugins to track your visitors in real time.
There is a plugin named Wassup,

You could put a conditional statement before the google analytics code begins:

if ( !is_user_logged_in() ) {

// show the google code

}

This statement checks if the user is NOT logged in, meaning it is a regular visitor, to show the google analytics code otherwise skip it.

I would also have the admin people bookmark the dashboard page. Then they never visit the site without logging in first, thus never displaying the google code.

Good luck!

That is the plugin I have been using too, great advice Nick.

I also use Google Analyticator for my wordpress blogs, with the option to stop tracking data from logged users.
