AWSTATS and Serendipity

[martoq]

Hey all I was wondering if anyone out there is running AWSTATS against their blog? I seem to only be getting a few pages as being hit yet I know more have been done.

I have tried Webalizer but because S9y runs everything off the index.php it gets stripped out in the stats. My goal is to be able to track what users are going to what blogs. I am already using the statistics plugin but I am looking for something more granular. I want to know what ip's are going to which blogs entries. Its in the weblog, just looking for the right app to pull it out.

Any suggestions?

If you are using no URL Rewriting, AWStats will only show hits to "index.php", because that is the only file being used. You cannot work around that, you will need to enabled URL rewriting, or drop the idea of using AWStats.

And you might want to enrigster with Google Analytics. They rock.

If I have URL re-write enabled...what are all the templates, I need to paste the Google analytics code for complete tracking???

If you list the template names, it'd be greatly helpful.

Thanks much

Cheers

You actually only need to edit your index.tpl template file for that single snippet call.

You could even use a Page Nugget plugin to emit that code.

Thanks Gravin.

I have added google analytics code before the end body tag </body> and have now updated the page on my server.

Let me check Google analytics account tomorrow and see, if i have any better stats than AWSTATS.

I'll also try to look into the Page Nugget thingy you mentioned.

Thanks again for the help.
