Top referrers not working (+ serendipity_referrers empty)

[CadEx]

Damn it!
I can't figure out, why serendipity_referrers is still empty after three weeks, also I came to my blog myself via external links. What is wrong?

Hi!

Did you enable referrer tracking in your s9y configuration?

Yes, it is activated.
Sadly. Would have been such an easy solution.

Thx for your fast reply.

Hi!

What's your URL? Which s9y version are you using? Which database version are you using? Which webserver are you using (Apache/IIS)?

REgards,

Hi!

One thought: Can you check your serendipity_suppress DB table?

Referrers are only tracked if people come from another page at least 2 times. Single referrers are not tracked and put into the database.

I don't know exactly, how the serendipity_suppress table is working, but for example golem.de is in it 4 times, and even with the same path.

But what does this have to do with suppression? I did not specify referrers to be suppressed in the configuration.

[garvinhicking]

Hi!

Suppression cannot be configured, it happens automatically. Can you show how your suppress table looks like ("SELECT * FROM serendipity_suppress").

It seems because of some reason you might have too little entries there. If onle one person per day comes from golem, s9y does not put that referrer into your real database table, because it thinks of it as spam referrers.
