I've used Google Analytics for years, on several website - no problems.

But now I'm tying to use Analytics on my new guitar collecting forum and I get no data. The tracking code validates OK, but status just shows 'waiting for data'.

Any ideas?

Try moving the code to the bottom of you page directly above the body tag.

Hi There,

This is a weird one...

I have a phpbb2 forum and had the same problem...

If you check your site on ie8 you'll probably see a javascript error with a message like expecting '{'

You won't see this error message in Firefox

For some reason {} are being removed in the analytics javascript after the catch statement

I put in the following code so that the brackets would not be removed

catch(err)
{
x = 0;
}

Seems to work...

Let us know how you get on.

i don;t always focus on that, i just fresh my blog everyday, and do seo everyday then i get more and more visitors
